We have taken delivery of 8,000 sets of the order of portable desks shipped by S.S. “Ever Green.” We regret to inform you that the order shipped to us arrived in an unsatisfactory condition. Of the 10 cartons of the portable desks delivered here on August 20, we found upon examination that 10% of the color boxes were broken and nearly 20% were seriously scratched. The damage appears to have been mainly caused by inadequate packing. Due to this deficiency, a great deal of the goods were damaged to an extent compelling us to dispose of them at reduced prices. Would you please let us know if you would take the damaged goods back or allow us to sell them at a 15% discount? Please ensure that this kind of problem will not reoccur. Thank you for your cooperation. We are awaiting your prompt reply.
