Слайд 10Example of a formal email
Hello,
I read on your web

site that you offer Music CD copying for large quantities

of CDs. I'd like to inquire about the procedures involved in these services. Are the files transferred online, or are the titles sent by CD to you by standard mail? How long does it usually take to produce approximately 500 copies? Are there any discounts on such a large quantity?
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I look forward to your response.

Thanks
