Man: Good afternoon, KT Furniture. can I help you?
Woman: Oh, hello, yes, um. I'm setting up a new office and I don't have internet access yet, but I'd like to place an order for some furniture.
M: That's fine. You can do it over the phone, and I can fill in the form for you this end.
W: Oh great, thanks
M: I just need to take a few customer details first. if that's OK?
W: Yes, fine.
M: What name is it?
W: My name?
M: Yes.
W: Oh, it's Sue Brown
M: Sue Brown - thanks.
And what's the name of your company, Ms Brown?
W: It's a clothing company, er, it's called 'Dress your best'.
M: 1OK. I'll just note that down… 'Dress- for- best'.
W: 1No - 'your best'.
M: Oh right. got it. So you make smart clothes?
W: Yes, formal dress for weddings and special occasions. We also repair and alter clothes.
M: I see. And where are you located - what's your postal address?
W: Right – well, we're on 2Kirby Trading Estate.
M: Kirby - how do you spell that?
W: It's K-i-R-B-Y.
M: Oh. I know that area. It's New Hampton Road, isn't it?
W: Yes, that's right, number 210 - in South Down.
M: OK, and can I have a contact number for our delivery man?
W: Sure - it's probably best if I give you my mobile number
M: OK.
W: The number's 309356 788 545.
M: OK … double 7 8 …
W: No - 7 double 8. 5-4-5.
M: Ah ... OK, that's great. Now, just a couple more questions before I take your order …
W: Fine.
M: We have two delivery dates this month. and you should be able to have either.
W: When are they?
M: Well, there's one on the 16th of the month, but there's a charge of 40 dollars for that one.
W: Oh. that's a lot!
M: Mmm. Or there's option 2, which is the end of the month. . . I'll have to confirm the date later… and that's a free delivery.
W: 4I'll take option 2, thanks, I don't want to pay a charge.
M: OK - I'll note down 'no charge'.
W: We haven't organised the office yet, so there should be plenty of time.
M: Mm-hm. And lastly, you don't have an account with us … so how would you like to pay?
W: Oh - I'll pay by credit card.
M: OK - will that be Visa?
W: 5Is American Express OK?
M: 5Absolutely fine.
(Pause)
M: So - what would you like to order?
W: Well. I've been looking in your catalogue, and you have some office chairs that look very comfortable for our type of work.
M: Is there an item code?
W: Yes, it's ASP 23.
M: 6OK - those chairs come in pink, white and black.
W: 6Yes, the pink looks nice. but I think the darker colour's better for us - you can see light materials on it more easily.
M: That's true.
W: We'll have five of those. I think.
M: OK. I've got that. Anything else?
W: Do you have any striped mats?
M: I'm sorry, not at the moment - they're out of stock. We should have some in next month.
W: Never mind. Um ... 7Well, um, I'd also like two of your glass desks.
M: They're lovely, aren't they?
W: Yes - you seem to have two sizes.
M: Basically large or small … I think the code for the small ones is ...
W: 8I think we'll have the large ones - the code here is TG 586.
M: OK, so that's two glass desks. Any lamps for those?
W: No - we have to get special lamps for our work.
M: Oh. I see. Do you have another supplier for those?
W: Yes ... um, we do need some furniture for our customers, though.
M: OK - for a waiting area or something?
W: Well, we have to discuss the work with them. so we need a nice sofa ...
M: Something soft and …
W: I thought leather ...
M: Ah yes, a good choice.
W: There's a three-seater here - DFD 44. That seems to be in red, cream or chocolate brown.
M: 9Yes. It does come in yellow as well.
W: 9Yellow … Mmm. I'd thought of red … but … that sounds lively – yes, I'll have that colour. I think brown's a bit too dull, and cream shows the dirt too much.
M: Yeah, you're right. Anything else? 10A coffee table, perhaps?
W:10 Yes, I think so. Maybe TX 22, the silver one.
M: A very good choice.
W: Well, that's it. I think.
M: OK ... I'll just add that up for you and then take your credit -card details ...
