Dear Sir,
Dear Sir,
I am writing to enquire if you have various electrical goods that I want to buy. I have tried local shops in my town but I am not to find the exact products that I want.
I am looking for a new Sony DVD player, a charger for Nokia Lumia 800 phone, and rechargeable batteries for Sony (AA size). Do you have these items in stock at your store in Bradford?
If not, can you pre-order them for me before this weekend as I will be in Bradford this weekend for some work. I would also like to know what are the prices for each of these items so that if these specific items are expensive then I can look for their cheaper alternatives. Furthermore, for how many days will you be able to hold these items for me? As I have already mentioned, I am travelling to Bradford this weekend so is it possible for you to hold these items for me till this weekend?
Looking forward to hear from you and hopefully you will be providing me with the information that I asked for in this letter.
Thanking you,
Jatin M
