Reply to the complaint 关于投诉的回函 ;Dear Sir or Madam, We need to inform you that our order number is 12306.On enquiry we found that the goods were not shipped until July 12 after the date of dispatching.We decided to order your goods just because you had promised to send the goods in one week.We have been put to considerable inconvenience through long delay and have to ask you to make us allowance corresponding to our loss. And there are more and more delay of shipments in recent months.As you know,we couldnt continue our cooperation under this situation.Because the terminal users here are in urgent need of the goods,we requested your prompt shipment of them,which you accepted.However,five weeks went by before the goods arrived instead of three weeks,and we lost the best opportunity of sales. We really want you to understand the situation and look forward to fulfilling our orders on time. Yours faithfully， Sales Department Manager;Dear Sirs or Madam, Thank you for your letter in which you point out the delay of shipment. I understand the importance of delivery on time, and we have made shipment in accordance with your order No.12306 on July 12. The goods will arrive at London Airport and ETA is July 27.
