Attention: Mr. P. Wilson, J

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for your order dated 4th November. On checking it we noticed a discrepancy between the first paragraph and the quantities you specified, and therefore cabled you yesterday as follows:

YOUR ORDER 4 NOVEMBER PLEASE CONFIRM QUANTITY

2100 SWINGER ORDERED STOP SPECIFICATION 1900 ONLY

Today we received your cable in reply reading:

REGRET CLERICAL ERROR OUR ORDER IS FOR 1900 SWINGER DRESSES AS SPECIFIED PRICE $35,055 PLEASE CONFIRM

We have pleasure in confirming that we have booked your order for 1900 'Swinger' dresses. Air shipment can be made as soon as we receive confirmation that a letter of credit has been opened for the amount mentioned above.

Please note that our quotation of 30th October was for sea freight c.i.f. Chicago. Naturally we can arrange for the goods to be sent as air cargo, but as this is more expensive we shall have to charge you for the extra costs. In this way, however, you will certainly receive the goods within a week, thus enabling you to distribute them in time for Christmas.

Yours faithfully,

F.T. Burke

We thank you for your letter of 5th June enclosing your latest leaflet of the new model of a car.

We have decided to place a trial order with you for 3 cars.

As to the delivery date we agree that they should be shipped 2 months after your confirmation of the order.

Please tell us by telex or fax when the machines have been dispatched.

Dear Sir,

In reply to your letter dated 1st July we would like to tell you that your terms of delivery and payment are quite acceptable to us, we find your price a bit too high, though. We hope, however, that you will grant us a discount when we become your regular buyers.

So we are pleased to establish business relations and are placing an order for 5,000 tons of maize with you.

Please telex or fax the date of shipment.

We are looking forward to your prompt confirmation of the order.

Yours faithfully,
