Dear Korinna

Re: order for Faci (314739) and Cristi(315227) skirts

Thank you for your fax concerning the above skirts.

I discussed the problems regarding the two skirts with Mr Hubner during his trip to Italy.

The skirt made by Faci has a slit at the bottom, which might make it difficult if the customer wanted to change the length of the skirt. We therefore agreed that the vendor would have to supply the skirt in two different lengths.

Mr Hubner thought it might be better to leave the two different lengths of the Cristic skirt. The skirt has special knitting technique; as a result, it might be difficult if the customer wanted to shorten it.

When Mr Hubner left Italy, I thought we had sorted the problems out. I was therefore surprised by you fax cancelling the other sizes.

Please le me know if you definitely want to cancel the other length skirts. As for reducing the total quantity, I will wait for confirmation of the information about lengths before I contact the vendors.

Thanks and best regards.

Discussing changes. 谈论改变

要点解释：

1. So that’s Cristi and Faci in standard length only. 那么克里斯蒂和法西公司的裙子都只要标准长度规格的货。

2. I thought I’d wait until we knew what was happening about the lengths.

我原打算弄清了裙子的长度后再…

3． And is it still 400 pieces of each?每个品种是否还要400件？
