Blue, its a short lived problem. The baker has other ovens, he just at present only runs one for the cheesecakes. If enough patrons call and complain guaranteed he will see an opening for a special run of the better tasting cheesecakes at $7 each. Then another oven will be magically open for that run, no need to hire anyone he has them. Just make a double batch and presto your back on top. Toss out the X amount allowed per order on the improved ones and the poor disabled smuck who got greedy is left holding his next batch. Then shortly the store owner can just make it known he is switching to the improved pies period no more old ones...... Remember the recipe is still the same he just got inventive with his advertising. To be legal all he has to do is change the look of the pie not the ingredients.
I am one of the @#$%^&* people who played that game with the local hoarder here back when the 22LR became a thing of memory. He would be at the local wally world on the day he knew shipment was due and by them all. Then next few weeks he was at the flee markets selling them for double or triple what he paid. Legal yes but I beat him one day and hit all 4 local wally's---- got the entire shipment to this area (I had exact times truck was to be at each store and made my purchase off inventory sheets I just happen to hold before they were unloaded). Then my crew was at the same shows/flee markets selling them for $2 over counter price and killing his rear end. He whined to his friend who just happened to work at wally world in sporting goods and the limits started to appear. That was cool with me, his bud got moved to automotive and the new guy played by the books. He was not allowed more than anyone else and his guy had got it set up so it was not a so many per purchase it was so many a day. Unless of course you were an employee...... nuff said there. The guy had stabbed even some of his friends in his greed and had very few to help him keep his little side business going.
