Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the Teddy Bear I bought from your online store last Monday.
Last month, I saw advertising on TV commercial about especial Teddy bear. He can sign some simple song. I decided to buy this toy for my little nephew for his birthday, so I ordered one of them via the internet.
My package was delivery yesterday and my nephew was so excited about his gift. I expected that Teddy bear signed when I press his nose, but it did not happen. I believe his chipset is shutting down. Besides, I ordered the brown one, but this is pink.
You can imagine how unhappy I was to discover could not give my present. As a result, I decided to return this toy and ask for a new one. I hope you can settle down this matter by send a new one immediately.
Yours faithfully,
Mari.
