  (b)   no notice of objection is given to the secured party in accordance with subsection   137(2).

  (3)   Despite subsection   128(2) and section   131, a secured party may purchase collateral only:

  (b)   by paying at least the market value at the time of the purchase.

Note:   Section   296 deals with the onus of proving matters under this subsection.
