Request for catalogues and price lists

Please send me a copy of your catalogue and price list of portable disc players, together with copies of any descriptive leaflets that I could pass to prospective customers.

I have seen one of your safes in the office of a local firm, which passed on your address to me.

Please send me a copy of your current catalogue. I am particularly interested in safes suitable for a small office.

I have a large hardware store in Bangkok and am interested in the electric heaters you are advertising in the Bangkok Post.

Please send me your illustrated catalogue and a price list.

Thank you for your letter enquiring about electric heaters. I am pleased to enclose a copy of our latest illustrated catalogue.

You may be particularly interested in our Model FX21 heater, our newest model. Without any increase in fuel consumption, it gives out 15% more heat than earlier models. You will find details of our terms in the price list printed on the inside front cover of the catalogue.

Perhaps you would consider placing a trial order to provide you with an opportunity to test its efficiency. At the same time this would enable you to see for yourself the high quality and finish put into this model.

If you have any questions please contact me.

Please send me a copy of your current typewriter catalogue and price list. I am particularly interested in purchasing an electronic typewriter with a memory and single-line display.

Thank you for your enquiry dated 28 August.

I have pleasure in enclosing the catalogue of typewriter which you requested. This includes details of a number of electronic typewriters by various manufacturers.

As you mention your requirement for a memory, have you considered a dedicated word processor? You will find details on pages 15-25, and will see from the price list that prices of the smaller models compare very reasonably with electronic typewriters.

If you would like demonstrations of any of the models in the catalogue, I would be very happy to arrange for our representative to call on you whenever convenient.

I am intrigued by your advertisement in the July issue of Personnel International concerning your free brochure, "Premium Products." This sounds like the answer to the eternal question, "What shall we give our outstanding employees when we want to reward them?"

I'd like six copies -- one for myself and one for each of our regional managers in Hartford, Dallas, San Francisco, Miami, and Atlanta.

Thanks very much.

In a separate first-class mailing, I am sending you six copies of our catalog, "Gift Galore." I am very pleased that you want a copy for each of your regional managers.

The catalog "tell it all," so I do not need to expand on the gifts in this letter. I do want to say, however, that for quantities of 20 or more gifts we offer an attractive discount.

Please let me know if I can be of help in other ways.
