Dear Mr. Wang,
We refer to our Order No. 3589 for 516 pieces of baby stroller which was placed on terms of CIF.
According to Contract No. 238, you will insure the above goods against All Risks for 110% of the invoice value, but now we prefer to have the shipment insured for 130% of the invoice value.
We sincerely hope that our request will not bring much trouble to you and look forward to your early reply.

Dear Abe,
We have received your letter of April 3, requesting us to take out insurance for 130% of the invoice value.
Since the goods were sold on CIF basis, it’s our usual practice to insure against All Risks for 110% of the invoice value with PICC.
If you desire to have your order insured for 130% of the invoice value, we can meet your requirement, but the extra premium for the difference between 110% and 130% should be borne by you.
Waiting for your further instruction.
