"I wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for all your help and phone calls regarding the money clips I'm after. It seems nowadays that most retailers won't go out of their way to help people, so I'm particularly happy about the way you've helped me. Next time I'm visiting my brother, we'll be sure to stop in and say hello..."
