Dear Ms. Horn:
We received your order for the Power House pressure washer. Unfortunately, we no longer carry Power House products. However, we are happy to exchange your model with our MacKenzie 1000 pressure washer.
The MacKenzie model is of comparable price and quality. Like the Power House, it features an easy grip trigger handle and an adjustable pressure release valve. Both washers can generate up to 200 pounds of pressure. The MacKenzie costs $259, just $10 more than the Power House.
Please call our customer service line at (800) 555-8000 to change your order.
Sincerely,
[/tab]

Dear Mr. Paisano:
We are unable to fill your order for a Trail Rider Rock Eater bicycle. The Rock Eater model was discontinued in June of this year. However, we do offer the Mud Hound as a substitute.
The Mud Hound is the other mid-priced model in our line. It features a red aluminum alloy frame, 21-speed grip twist gears, a comfort seat, and front-fork dual shock absorbers. And it costs the same as the Rock Eater — $329.
To order the Mud Hound today call (800) 555-7825. We appreciate your business. See you on the trails.
Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Bollin:
We are sold out of the Caltech ZR-2000 infrared security camera you ordered. Caltech is ironing out some production problems, and we don’t anticipate another shipment from them until early next year.
As a replacement, we recommend a similar infrared security camera, the Vista LRX. The LRX is a camera Vista recently developed to compete with Caltech’s ZR-2000. They are comparable in quality with the major difference being that Vista’s model is slightly smaller and costs $100 less than the Caltech.
If you would like to order a Vista camera, please complete and return the enclosed order form. Thank you for letting us serve your security needs.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Stewart:
Thank you for your interest in our tennis rackets. We regret to inform you we no longer make the aluminum Net Minder racket you requested. We have converted our entire line of rackets to graphite frames.
The Professional Tennis Association called graphite, “the wave of the future in racket technology,” and we agree. Graphite frames have the advantage of being lighter and stronger than metal frames, an important combination for the serious tennis athlete.
We have enclosed a current catalog. The model closest in price to the Net Minder is the Ace, which sells for $69.99. The Ace is one of our best-selling rackets. Our customers appreciate its extra large sweet spot and built-in shock absorbers.
Call (800) 555-3882 to order today!
Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Mitchell,
Thank you for your recent order. Unfortunately, we no longer carry the Techtaun Model 12A product line.
You may be interested in the Brocktech 4000 series model line. Although it does not have the same specifications, it does have many of the same features as the model you ordered.
Call us at 800-555-5555 if you would like to change your order. Thank you for your interest in our company.
Sincerely,
