Dear Mr.Green:

I really appreciate your order for 200 Gem-Con Plastique motorcycle tanks.These will be shipped at once.Thanks,too,for the check!

Beginning in June,we’re offering a special discount on the Gem-Con line.In addition to the trade discount of 33.3 percent,we’re giving an extra discount of 5%. A lot of our customers are switching to the Plastique tank as a replacement for original metal equipment.They report hearty endorsements from participants in motorcross competition— that the tanks are very lightweight,but extremely tough.We predict you’ll have a similar endorsement!

Thank you for your letter of 20th May concerning your special request.From time to time,we do run special jobs,changing materials and colors for one particular order.But we have to consider many factors before we can accept the order.I have spoken to our production manager,and she has done the costing.I am sorry to report that even if we did the job for you at cost,it would come out well above the price you are willing to pay.I am checking with other manufacturers in the area who are working with the materials you want.They may be able to give you the quality you desire at a fair price.I will get back to you in a few days.We appreciate your business and I am glad you asked us about this job.The next time you have a special need,please ask again.We will try our best to do the job for you.If we cannot,we will attempt to find the best company that can.
