Ditzwarren's of Shewsden are the premier luxury departmental mercers in Great Nortend. Established opposite our current site in 1743 by William Ditzwarren as an ironmonger's shop, we expanded in 1782 by John Ditzwarren who acquired the neighbouring mercer and draper, and cabinetmaker. We moved to our present site in 1877 when the current building was built. From the elegant 4½ acre premises on the Parade Street, immediately without Upper Booth in Cadell, as well as in branches in Limmes and abroad, Ditzwarren's are wholesale and retail men's and ladies' mercers, drapers, tailors, milliners, haberdashers, merchants of sundry and general wares, fancy goods repositories and more, in the most comfortable, largest and most well-arranged premises possible. All of our merchandise and fine wares are sourced from the most skilled craftsmen, manufacturers and factories across the country and around the globe.

Though they are smaller than our Shewsden flagship and may not have all departments, all three maintain the wide variety of stocked goods and bespoke options, excellent food, luxurious furnishings and genteel service which Ditzwarren's are known for.

THE GENERAL MANAGER'S OFFICE

Mme Waltraut Bödeker,
113 Parliament Square, BY9 1008,
Central Royal Alexandria,
Kingdom of Alexandria, Yohannes


1st of March, 2019


Dear Mme Bödeker,

I am writing on behalf of Mr Cameron Fengas, the General Manager of Ditzwarren's of Shewsden in relation to your letter dated the 29th instant. I am sorry to have occasion to inform you that Ditzwarren's, being departmental mercers or a department store and not a specialty purveyour of antique musical instruments, have been unable to presently obtain any French harpsichords made by Blanchet in 1733.

We also are unable to respond in the positive to the Bank of Yohannes's desire to purchase three “Mendelssohn Stradivarius” violins as to our knowledge, there has only ever been one violin by Stradivarius dubbed with the epithet of “Mendelssohn”, being the “Red Mendelssohn”. We are also unable to presently broker a deal for the purchase of one Kuhn-Bösendorfer grand piano, as there has only been one ever made, which is currently not for sale.

If any of the instruments your bank desires comes up for purchase, or is otherwise made available to Ditzwarren's, we shall not hesitate to inform you.


Yours faithfully,


(Sgd.) M. L. Horace

Miss Mary Horace,
Secretary

Proposal to Purchase merchandise—Ditzwarren’s

Dear Mary Horace,

This is to confirm that we have received your letter in response to our initial Letter of Intent for Purchase of merchandise.

We recognise that our previous proposal will not be turned into an agreement. For that reason, we have attempted to create a list of alternative products to be imported by our body corporate from your esteemed company. They are as follows:

  • [24] Scott Cao Original Bench Violin (Baron D’assignies);
  • [8] Bösendorfer Disklavier Edition grand piano; and
  • [2] Steinway & Sons Model M Grand Piano.
The purchase price for the above-mentioned merchandise, should they become available, shall be proposed by your esteemed company and negotiated by our representative in the Yohannesian Embassy Lendert-with-Cadell on behalf of our body corporate in Royal Alexandria.

This letter is an informally written proposal made in response to an initial Letter of Intent. It is written to allow preliminary work to proceed while formalities such as financial or planning approvals are obtained. It is not written to be, and shall not represent in any way, a binding or permanent legal agreement, or impose any legal obligation or responsibility on either entity to represent an actual purchase agreement.

Sincerely,

WALTRAUT
