SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing about a purchase I made recently at your store. Last week I bought a desk, but now I realize that it doesn’t suit my needs. I would like you to do something about this.
I bought a five-drawer desk for use in my home office. The salesclerk assured me that the desktop was large enough for both my computer and printer. She also said that one of the drawers could be locked.
When I got the desk home, I realized that it was not large enough. Both my computer and printer fit on it, but then there is not enough room left for me to work. Also, none of the drawers can be locked, so I have nowhere to keep valuable documents.
I bought the desk on sale, so it is not returnable. However, since the salesclerk didn’t give me correct information, I think you should let me return it. I will take store credit if you have another desk I can use. If not, I would like a full refund.
I hope you agree with my solution.
Sincerely,
RF
