Sent: June 1 //
Subject: Invoice CORRECTION //
A shipment of office supplies that you ordered from us /
was shipped from our distribution center on May 31. //
It is scheduled to arrive at your office address by Friday morning, /
as you requested. //
Please note, however, / that we have discovered an error in our records /
indicating an inconsistency in the packing slip and invoice /
included with your shipment. //
Both were prepared for shipment on Tuesday morning, /
when the printer ink cartridges you ordered were not yet available. //
We had been planning to send these to you separately /
as soon as we received them. //
But they arrived before your package was shipped. //
One of our clerks added them to the shipment, /
revising the packing slip / but NOT the invoice. //
Therefore, the invoice you will receive is incorrect. //
Please discard it /
and refer to the invoice / we have just sent to you by fax / moments ago. //
We apologize for the inconvenience. //
