It is possible to be held to a contract that you have not signed. If you talk to someone about getting certain goods from them, and they deliver the material to you, you accept the delivery, you are going to be required to pay for them.

∙ 9y agoThe contract may not exist if you never received a copy or signed it, if it's written. Remember though, a contract need not only be in writing, it can be spoken too (verbal contracts). However, acceptance of a contract (what this issue deals with) can be subjective and objective. If you behave or act in a way that a reasonable person would infer that a contract exists, it does. Without knowing the type of contract (sale of goods, property, a lease agreement, etc) and the context surrounding the contract, determining if your contract is valid or void is impossible as someone could speculate a thousand instances in favor of both.

Parties to a contract must be competent to contract?
An acceptance is a response to the offeree that indicated that they approve of the terms of the offer. Once an offer is accepted, a legally binding contract is created. An acceptance must be intentionally made. The offeree must communicate to the offeror that they agree with the terms of the proposed contract. Both parties must be mentally competent for a contract to be legally binding. The contract also cannot contain anything unlawful; otherwise it is also not considered a valid contract. The communication of the acceptance of an offer can be bilateral or unilateral. http://sincerlysamski.blogspot.com/2011/09/writing-valid-contracts.html
