We regret to inform you that Doe Computers will be going out of business as of (date). We have had 11 wonderful years in this business, but chain electronics retailers, mail order, and Internet shopping hometown computer stores have made it difficult to continue. Unfortunately, we have decided it is time to close our doors.

We're having a going-out-of-business sale for the next two weeks, with some great saving on hardware software and supplies. Please come and take advantage of these savings. Don't miss out! Once the inventory is gone, it is gone forever!

Thank you for being a supporting customer of Doe Computers.

You Can Get A New $2,000.00 Computer For Only $399!

Find Out How

You heard me right. You can purchase an absolutely new $2,000 computer for the bargain price of just $399. (But only if you are one of the first 50 people to respond to this offer.)

Here's why.

Recently, Doe Computers received the bad new that one of our suppliers was going out of business and would leave us holding the bag for over $20,000. That's a big hit for any company. They offered us absolutely new computers in lieu of payment and we jumped at the chance. Now we have to move these systems fast.

Our Problem Is Your Opportunity

In order to move these 50 systems and recover our money, we have to drastically lower the prices. Let us show you what you will get:

*(list prominent features)

Instead of selling these computer systems at a profit, we'll be happy just to get our money out of them. Come and see for yourself and reserve your system at this low price. But please don't wait. The supply is limited.

I really hope you'll be one of the 50 lucky people to take advantage of this golden opportunity.

Congratulations! Your new VCR was a smart buy at Doe Warehouse. You can be sure you received an excellent value for your money. Now, you can add to your savings with a Buyer Protection Service Agreement. This plan extends the factory warranty on your product and saves you from the hassle and expense of costly repairs.

PLAY IT SAFE AND SAVE

It's true most products come with a factory warranty, but this often expires in just a few months while the equipment is still relatively new. In reality, wear and tear takes its toll on even top-of-the-line equipment and the odds of a product breakdown only increase with age. That's why the Buyer Protection Service Agreement is so important. It's there to safeguard you when you're likely to need it most.

Given the complexity of today's components and the skill required to fix them, even minor repairs can be costly--not to mention the inconvenience of locating a factory-authorized service center on your own.

LOCK IN PREFERRED RATES WITH A MULTI-YEAR PLAN

Through this special offer, you can lock-in up to 3 years of protection at substantial savings over the 1-year plan. See how much you can save:

HURRY, LIMITED TIME OFFER

This is your one and only opportunity to add this valuable coverage to your VCR's list of great features. You will not receive another offer so it is important that you reply now. Complete and return the enclosed Reply Form along with your payment by May 5. If your desired level of coverage costs $50 or more, you can make three easy payments at no extra cost.
