Dear Terry,
We just received our latest shipment from you, order number DV4-6541.
Unfortunately, one box of mugs was missing. We only received 132. Is there
another box coming at a later time? Could you check this for me?

All the other goods arrived in good shape, just the mugs were short. We
want to give these to people at the Destination California Tourism Event.
This event starts next Friday, which is only 9 days from now. If you could
take care of this right away and send the rest of the mugs to me ASAP, it
would be greatly appreciated.
