So often community members have asked for a letter example to accomplish some purpose. This then is a sample format I have written myself or obtained from others on my Forum. Feel free to copy, paste, and alter to fit your needs.

You must have tried in good faith to resolve the problem with the merchant, the cost must exceed $50, and the distance must be within 100 miles or within the state.
