Dear Isay, I am writing

this

letter in regard to the TV that you might be interested to purchase. I am selling my smart television to replace it with an Android TV. If you can still remember the television set that we used to watch Big Bang Theory on Netflix, I will put that on sale. The black one is located in my living room

although

the colour is slowly fading. It comes with a Bluetooth speaker so if you decide to buy it from me

that is

included as well. I remember you telling me that you are looking for a cheap television set so I thought you might be interested in purchasing

this

one. It does not have any damage and still working properly. I am free every Saturday so you are free to contact me to look at the set any time you are available. Message me whenever you can. Yours faithfully, Rhea
