Dear sir/madam
The goods that we ordered for were received timely but we noticed little damage on some of the typewriters on the time of delivery. 1 English typewriter of Brother was partly broken and 2 Nepali typewriters from Helda did not work properly since the time of installation. We want them to be replaced as soon as possible and we don’t want any trouble here after. If they won’t be replaced soon then we would like to have our payment of each typewriter mentioned above to be repaid back. We hope for your better response.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
