You told me that I’d get them in 48 hours, but actually it took nearly three weeks. And I just cannot understand how you can say these roofing systems are safe!

Dear Mr. Martin,
We took delivery of our order no. 498D and we are dissatisfied with the product for a number of reasons.
Firstly, some of the tiles were damaged, and on unpacking them we found a number of breakages. We would suggest this is due either to inadequate packing or to an accident in transit.
Secondly, we have discovered that the bricks which you describe as ‘unique’ can be purchased in any local construction market for half the price that you charge.
So, we demand a complete refund of everything we have paid, including postage and packing.
We must ask you to attend the matter with utmost urgency.
Yours sincerely,
Mortimer White
