Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The salesperson recommended the WIFI-capable iPod to Lori for use at a WIFI enabled health club, indicating an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. Since the iPod did not work in the intended environment, Lori can claim a refund based on the implied warranty created by the salesperson. The All sales final policy may not apply in this case.
