Klara Agusta
Jalan W.Z. Johanes No. 621
Kel. Bumi Nyiur, Manado 95118
May 26, 2007
The Tiny Tots Toy Company
Jalan Ceningan Sari No. 50
Sesetan, Denpasar 80223

Dear Customer Service Representative:

I recently purchased one of your Tiny Tents (Model#47485) for my three-year
old daughter. Unfortunately, after viewing the components that came with
the product, I discovered that four of the parts were missing. Also, the
instructions that came with the tent are in Portuguese and Russian, but not
in English or French, the two languages I speak. These two unforeseen
problems have resulted in the tent remaining unassembled and unacceptable
as a toy for my daughter. I am writing to request replacements for the
missing parts, and a copy of the full set of assembly instructions (in English
or French) for the model I purchased. If reasonable arrangements are not
made within ten business days, I will return the tent to the store I purchased
it from and expect a full refund. To assist you in processing my request, I am
including a copy of my sales receipt and a list of the missing parts. I have
purchased other toys manufactured by your company in the past, and have
always been impressed with the quality and selection that Tiny Tots has
made available to its customers. I sincerely hope this is a one-time incident,
and that any future purchases I make will live up to the standard my family
has come to expect from your company.

Sincerely,
Klara Agusta
