SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Jan,
As you know, we’ll be moving to a new house soon and there are a few things that I won’t be able to take with me. The new house is a bit smaller so I have to sell some furniture and I was wondering if you might be interested?
In particular I want to sell my big dining table. Do you remember it – the one in the living room? It has wooden legs and a grey glass top and it’s big enough for six people. There are six matching chairs to go with it.
I know you’ve always liked this furniture so I could let you have it at a good price. I’d rather sell it to you than to a stranger!
Why don’t you come around and take another look at them on Saturday? We’ll be here all day, so maybe we could have some lunch together?
Give me a ring and let me know.
Love,
Shanda.
