Subject: forward the lowest estimate of light, fan

I would like to request a quote for 22w philip’s light and a 1200rpm
fan. I have seen that your company sells several different models, but
since I need it and within one month, I feel the extra discount one
would be the most appropriate.

I would also want to know how long it would take to ship, waiting for
your response.

Thanks and Regards
