Where goods are in the possession of a bailee and are to be delivered without being moved, in most instances the seller may either tender to the buyer a document of title or obtain an acknowledgment by the bailee of the buyer's right to possess the goods.

This statement is true because in many jurisdictions, laws such as the Uniform Commercial Code in the United States allow for the transfer of rights to goods in possession of a bailee through either the tender of a document of title or through the bailee's acknowledgment of the buyer's right to possess the goods, without the need for physical movement of the goods. This facilitates transactions and the transfer of ownership in goods stored by a third party.
