Dazzling Dry Cleaners
123 South Road
Los Angeles, CA 90001

Mr. Dooring:

I am terribly disappointed with my recent batch of dry cleaning.
Last week I dropped off two dresses to be cleaned.
One had a white top and a navy bottom; the other was all black except for a white blouse and collar.
When I picked the dresses up today, I noticed that the white top of the navy dress was stained light blue.
Furthermore, I saw a new brown stain on the collar of the black dress.
Both dresses are ruined. I expect that you will reimburse me for the cost of the dresses.

Sincerely,

Tina Immad
