Dear Mr. Ali,

I am writing this letter regarding the sale of a fabulous antique vase.

The vase is very precious and valuable for me because it was gifted by my uncle last year. Unfortunately, I am facing financial crisis and so need cash urgently.

As far as its worth is concerned, it is a rare piece and would not be available in market these days. Beautiful colors and attractive design make it worth buying. Additionally, it is highly durable and light weight. It would be a fantastic addition in your collection of historical items.

Although, it is very close to my heart, I need to sell it due to some personal reasons. The price I am expecting would be around 300 dollars. It is negotiable. Feel free to contact me at my personal number, 03001212346. In case you are interested in writing email, it is wer@gmail.com.

Waiting for your positive response.

Regards.

Yours faithfully,

Jim.
