You own an old item that you think is valuable and would like to sell. Write a letter to the owner of an antique shop.
In your letter
explain how you found the shop
describe the item that you would like to sell
say how much you would like to sell the item for
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to sell an antique piece at your shop and I believe that it would attract more customers to your shop.
As for how I came to know about your business, I read an advert in the local newspaper, where it was published that your shop deals with ancient items and accepts such valuables from individuals. One of my friends, who is a regular patron also mentioned that you have been in this business since 1980 and serve customers well.
The item in question is the sculpture of Lord Buddha, which is made of brass and crafted by an artist from medieval time. It is a classic piece of art and would enhance the beauty of a living room. I bought it last year when I went on a trip to Bangkok.
By considering its graceful look, quality and condition, I would like to sell it for Rs. 5000 only and would like to accept cash payment for this deal. I have also enclosed the invoice, showing the original cost of this item. Let me know if you like this offer and would like to close the deal.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Ell
