Subject: FW: Sonlight must introduce shipping charges to APO/FPOs-I hope this discount will help...

Dear Sonlight Friend,

My name is Peter Rouse. I am the Customer Fulfillment Manager for Sonlight Curriculum, Ltd.

I write this note to you today because in the past we've shipped orders for you to an APO or FPO address.

We (Sonlight), like all businesses and consumers, have experienced significant increases in shipping costs during 2007, and going into 2008. As a consequence, when you place a new order this coming year, we will not be able to fully shield you from feeling the increase.

Your APO/FPO shipping address bears an additional burden: though for other domestic addresses Sonlight may use private shipping companies (like FedEx®, with whom we negotiate excellent rates), our ONLY option for all APO and FPO deliveries is USPS Priority—with no discount.

So, for the next week, we want to ease your transition into Sonlight's new shipping rates...

For the week of Tuesday, April 1st (today) through Monday, April 7th (at midnight Mountain Time, US) Sonlight will pay 50% of your total shipping cost on every order you have us ship to an APO, FPO, or any address outside the continental (lower 48) United States and Canada. Because we have now loaded the new rates into the ordering system on our 2008 website, the shipping charge on your order will (initially) show the full rate. However, we will adjust your actual shipping charge before we process your payment—you will pay only half the new shipping rates.

I do need to add: This one-week "international shipping" special offer applies only to the shipping charges shown automatically when you order on our website at Sonlight.com. Those charges are calculated based on the new 2008 International Shipping Category Rates Chart, which is available on our website and printed on page 161 of the Sonlight 2008 catalog. Please note, this special offer will NOT apply to special shipping arrangements, such as overnight and other rush shipping or delivery via DHL and other special freight carriers.

I recognize that shouldering added costs when you live at a distance from where you get the things you need for everyday life can be very tough. I hope this transition to our new shipping rates will help.

My team and I value your business (and your trust in us) highly. We look forward to serving you and your family in the near future.

Thank you for choosing Sonlight. I pray you have a great school year.

Sincerely,

Peter Rouse
Customer Fulfillment Manager
