Purchase
Question
Hello Rabbi,
The Sages say that in a purchase all the benefit goes to the buyer. What is the reasoning, since the seller also benefits, because he receives payment for the purchase? It turns out that both of them benefit.
Thank you
Answer
You mean the Talmud in Nedarim, right? There it is said only when the buyer pays less than the value (or the seller charges more, in which case the benefit is the seller's).
