Kallisti!

You people are indeed a rare fish in the big Sirius Sea you know? I'm sure the few times I've seen your ships were only because you wanted to. I've even sighted more nomads than IND!

And that's why I contacted you. There must be a reason why you're rarely seen, and I like to think it's because you're friggin good. Can you really supply a customer with anything that has a price? I'll be awaiting your response, but I can already give you a hint: it's not that difficult to get, but we need it in large ammounts over here.

Yours in Eris,

Thank you for holding. What is your logistical inquiry, Mr. Skripto? We here at the Independent Neuralnet Division will try our best to accommodate, provided it's financially sound.

Well you see, we're expanding business in Baffin... and there's a certain commodity that has caught our attention. I think Uncut DIamonds they call them... Would the IND be interested in bringing say... 5.000 units of these to Brunswick Shrine in Baffin on a weekly basis, for 7.000 sc a piece?

Yours in Eris,

Dear Mr. Skripto, I regret to inform you that your current terms have been declined. Not only is it of miniscule volume and a commodity not commonly shipped by our corporation, it also incurs a hefty financial deficit to the tune of approximately 3,000 credits per unit in addition to more time spent getting the goods to the destination.

Unless the Temporary Autonomous Zoners have more to offer to make it worth the Division's time, this financial proposal may be considered declined.

In view of the recent corporative scandal the IND have been involved in, we at TAZ decided to give this a try once again. Do not get confused, we are not to judge your actions, be that evidence true or not, we at TAZ may be Popes but we are not Saints either. Goddess prevails.

So, now that everything points at the direction of your lot losing some markets... would you like to reconsider our previous offer? Brunswick Shrine has not yet got a supplier for Aluminum Ore, Platinum Ore, Uncut Diamonds and Raw Hydrocarbons. I bet we can come to an agreement...

23's!
