(a)When one person misleads another in the sale of an object, and because he was misled, the buyer does not receive what he thought he was purchasing, the sale is revoked and the object and money are returned to their original owners. Similarly, if a buyer overpays by more than one sixth of the value of a movable object that was sold, the sale is revoked and the object and money are returned to their original owners.

(b)If the buyer was misled about a minor point of the sale, or was overcharged by one sixth of the value of the object, the sale is valid, but the seller is required to deliver to the buyer everything that he had promised, and to return what he overcharged.
