to purchase goods in substitution for those due from the
seller.
(2) The buyer may recover from the seller as

contract price together with any incidental or

but less expenses saved in consequence of the seller's
breach.
(3) Failure of the buyer to effect cover within

contract price together with any incidental and
consequential damages provided in this [subtitle) TITLE
(§ 2—715), but less expenses saved in consequence of the

reasonable.

consequential damages under the next section may also be
recovered.
