Suppose, Joe owns a custom decal shop. The Merry Maids maid service company orders seven $100 decals for its company vehicles. Then the maid service breaches the contract after the goods were produced, but before they were delivered. As a result, Joe has a bunch of custom decals for the maid service that he cannot resell. However, by a stroke of luck, a maid service from a nearby city that is also named Merry Maids desires labels for their car. They pay $50 per label for the seven labels that Joe already made. If Joe were to sue for damages, how much could he recover
