If Andrews Computing has repudiated its contract to sell 500 computers to a retailer, the retailer may "cover" by procuring goods elsewhere and then sue Andrews for incidental and consequential damages. This is because the retailer has the right to mitigate their damages, which includes purchasing goods from another source. They can then sue Andrews for any additional costs incurred, including the difference in price between the original contract and the cost of the substitute goods, as well as any other consequential damages resulting from Andrews' breach of contract.
