Dear Sirs,
We are about to make up an order for our customer. We intend to ship a consignment of office equipment from Singapore to Vladivostok. The consignment consists of 50 NG 2010 Computers, 50 HP TJ Printers, 50 QU Copiers and special furniture and accessories which have been packed into 10 wooden crates marked Vladivostok measuring 3 x 2 x 2 metres and weighing 560 kg each. The invoice value is $456,000.00.
Could you please inform us which vessels are available to reach Vladivostok before September, 1, and kindly quote us freight rates for the voyage.
We shall also be glad to know time of transit and frequency of sailings, and whether cargo space must be reserved; if so, please send us the necessary application forms. Please advise us of the loading dates and let us know on which day the ship closes for cargo.
Shipped, clean Bs/L, in a set of 3, are to be made out “to order”, and are required by 22 August for delivery to Delta Bank, under the requirements of a LC.
Your prompt reply will be appreciated.
Yours faithfully,

Ms A.Donnik 5 July, 20__ JV SINGRUSTORG PO 789-99 Magenta Plaza 67 K8 Singapore
Dear Ms Donnik,
Thank you for your enquiry of 3 July. Enclosed you will find details of the NEA Shipping Lines sailings for July-August from Singapore to Vladivostok. To the itinerary we have attached our sailing card for the MV Orion, which loads at the Raffles Docks.
The MV Orion will be accepting cargo from 1 August to 7 August inclusive, and is expected to commence loading on 3 August. We suggest that your goods should be delivered on the opening date.
We sail once a fortnight, and as Vladivostok is our fifth port of call the voyage takes about 10 days. So she is due in Vladivostok on 20 August.
As we can quote favourable groupage rates our freight rate for crated consignments is $45.00 per metric tonne or 10 cubic metres, at steamer’s option.
We enclose our shipping instructions form and will be glad if you will fill this in and return it to us as soon as possible.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely, Tony Lee Tony Lee Supervisor |
