Dear Mr. Khan,

With reference to your letter dated 5th September, 2002, regarding some old books in your possession, we are happy to inform you that we are keen on buying them. Though the books are not in demand now, we appreciate their value and hope to find some customers for them.

Unless we see the books and inspect their condition, we cannot state our terms. Please see us with your books between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on any working day. We assure you that we shall buy them at a reasonable price.

Yours faithfully,
