Conversation One W: Sales department. Can I help you? M: Oh, yes. I hope so. My name is Kings Bruce of GPF Ltd. We need some supplies for our design office. W: I see. What sort of things are you looking for, Mr. Kings Bruce? M: Well, first of all, we need one complete new drawing board. W: Well, in the standard range, we have the D044, and the D045 models. M: Oh, what’s the difference between them? W: Well, the D045 has the mending system and it does cost slightly more as a result. M: So what is the total price? W: For the D045, it is 387 pounds 50 pence. M: And does that include value added tax? W: Oh, yes. M: Can you tell me how long it takes to deliver? W: I can’t give a definite date now I’m afraid, because it depends on the other orders we have to get out. But it will certainly be within three weeks. M: OK, now we also want some drawing pens, ink and correction fluid, and some drawing paper. W: Ah, now the lady who deals with drawing office supplies isn’t here this morning I’m afraid. But I could ask her to give you a ring this afternoon if you like. M: Oh, yes. Thank you. W: What is your telephone number? M: It is Redding. That is code 0734, 21653-51. W: OK, I will get Miss Thompson to ring you this afternoon. Now would you like me to place an order for one D045 drawing board? M: Yes, please. You’ve been most helpful. Goodbye. W: Goodbye. What’s the man’s purpose in making the telephone call?
