LODGING A PROTEST

Dear Sir,

I regret to draw you attention to the inconvenience caused to us by the parking of trucks in the lane situated between post office and Market Road. In all probability this use of the narrow lane has not had your sanction and it is possible that the operator adopted this practice to avoid the convenience caused by driving to the front entrance of the shop , where though sample facilities for parking are available there is every likelihood of a challan. Besides the operator feel no qualms in loading and unloading beyond the shop hors and even on the weekly holiday also. A further point I must raise is the discourtesy shown by the operator to the residents of this lane who venture to protest against this practice. He showed utter lack of any sign of civic sense. I would therefore request you to send your Inspector to examine our complaint and the merit of this case.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,

Rumours spreading all over suggest that share prices of the National Rubber Co. are likely to touch a new low at Rs.500. I shall be obliged if you purchase five shares on my behalf at Rs.500 or below. As I would not like to take undue risk and also keep a margin of safety, I would not go beyond Rs.500/-

Dear Sir,

We are much obliged for your inquiry about out sugar cubes. We are pleased to sate that the extraordinary size of your order would enables us to reduce our prices by 10 percent. You would appreciatel that the reduction in prices is substantial in view of the prices and conditions of raw material obtaining in the market. We, however hasten to add that this reduction will be allowed only if a minimum of 20 quintals is ordered every month. You will readily admit that it is necessary for us to impose some safeguarding conditions, and you must therefore, give us a firm undertaking to draw at least the above mentioned monthly quota or pay he full price for the quantity you order. You, however, will be free to reject any supplies that do not conform to the samples we are sending today by parcel. As our business connection are new, and we are strangers to each other, we should appreciate a couple of bank reference along also with the order.

Yours faithfully,

ASKING FOR QUOTATIONS

Dear Sirs,

We would be glad to consider your quotations for the supply of sugar cubes in large quantities. We

intend to entrust you with the bulk of our business should you product prove satisfactory and your prices competitive. We may, however, point out your that you product will be submitted to a vigorous test to which stipulation, we hope you will have no objection. We should naturally no hesitate to pay the market price for a trial supply of 10 kilos for cubes of the first quality but in view of the possibility that a satisfactory trial would lead to our placing a contract of a minimum of 20 quintals per month, we feel that some discount should be considered. Please, therefore send us the best terms as soon as possible.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sirs,

We would be glad to receive from you detailed particulars of your rubber beltings which we require for supplying to the police department. We expect our requirements throughout the year will be uniformly heavy. Therefore we think it is hardly necessary to ask you to keep your quotations competitively suitable. We will require, mostly, black leather belting with nickled brass hook and a few letters embossed on it. You can quote your prices with and without your charges for the embossing of letters. But in any case the material must be of the first quality. We look forward to an early reply so that we may proceed further in the matter.

Yours faithfully,
