W: The manager from our Sydney factory just called to let me know that he would like the parts he ordered for their exhibition in November to be delivered by the 25th of October. Could you make sure to have them sent out by three o’clock today?

M: Sure, but could I ask why he’s in such a hurry to receive them? The exhibition is still two weeks away, and the delivery only takes three days.

W: I know, but he wants to have plenty of time to test the materials in case there are any problems. This way, he will have time to have them returned to us to be fixed.

M:I see.
