Write to the shop owner describing what you need and asking whether they have these items and what they cost.
Answer:

Dear Sir,

Recently, I have shifted into my new flat in your area and am looking for some furniture. I am writing this letter to check whether you have any of the furniture I am looking for.
I am in need of a showcase, a wardrobe, and a dress cabinet. All the items must be reconditioned because of having low cost budget.(<--Delete this sentence. Second-hand shops by default have reconditioned/cheap items, so this statement is unnecessary.) However, the quality of the products must be optimum in terms of monetary value.(<--Delete this sentence. It sounds insulting, as if you feel the shop owner might sell low quality goods.) A warranty period of one year for each piece of equipment must be provided. Additionally, wooden furniture would be preferred.

Are these products under your scope of supply? Moreover, would you please estimate the probable cost of these items? Is your shop facilitated to accept Visa credit card payments? Please let me know the answers so that I can prepare the payment accordingly.

I am looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

Yours Faithfully,
Faruqe Ahmed
