Hi!

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! Do the documents happen to include the original bidding notice and the company's response? I'd be interested in those materials as well, if they're available, and I'd be happy to wait and send payment for the adjusted amount, if need be.

Thanks again!
Beryl

From: Kell Took

The documents do not contain a bidding notice. The cost, however, is actually $8.75. I found a math error. What is included in the documents is the contract and assignment of contract. Thank you,
