context: The determination of what is reasonable falls squarely within the province of the fact finder -- "what is a reasonable time is a question of fact, varied by the circumstances of each case." Further, in the context of the supreme court's analysis of "the circumstances" of that case, the reference to "reasonable time" and "market fluctuations" was to the seller's efforts to make a fair resale, not the market's actual condition at the time.
