You have just rented an unfurnished flat and a friend has told you that the opportunity to shop in the shopping center has cheap second-hand furniture. Write to the shop owner describing what you need and asking whether they have these items and what they cost
Dear Sir or Madam,
I have just rented an unfurnished flat after arriving in
this
town about a couple of weeks ago. Well, as you can understand that since I am new in this
town, I don’t really know many places or shops here where I would be able to purchase some cheap or second
-hand furniture.
Luckily, however
, one of my friends, who lives in this
town, advised me that I visit "Naomi Furniture", an Opportunity Shop, to find what I have been looking for. Needless to say, I liked what my friend had
suggested after seeing your collection online.
Anyway, I am looking to buy a standard single bed, a couple of sofa chairs, a wardrobe, a bedside table, and a medium-size dining table along with 4 chairs. I could Unnecessary verb

use a standard office desk and a desk chair. I think that’s all the furniture I need for now.
So, if you please let me know whether you have them or not, and how much they could possibly cost me, I would really appreciate it.
Yours faithfully,
