Dr Gonzo was less than pleased with this parka

Gentlemen:


I am returning the navy blue Everest Parka that I received from you two days ago.  Your guarantee notes that "I may return merchandise within 10 days after delivery and my full purchase price will be refunded."  So that is the purpose of this letter, and the carton to which it's attached.  In the carton you'll find the parka, never worn and in absolutely new condition.


I'm returning it for a very simple reason: I don't think it feels or looks right on me, and I don't think it's as good a value as several other parkas I could buy here in Aspen for the same price.  This is no fault of yours--except that your catalogue description led me to believe that  I was ordering a much tougher and heavier parka than the one I received.  But I suspect this was a matter of misinterpretation on my part, and for that reason I offer my apologies.


In any case, I'm returning the parka and requesting a full refund, inre: your guarantee.  Thanks.


As you know, I ordered three other items when I sent the check that covered the parka: a canvas hunting coat, a leather vest, and a pair of leather moccasins.  I trust these will be sent as soon as possible... but if there's any problem, please send me a refund on these items also.  My check, #253, was for $121.35.


Sincerely,
