We are going to need confirmation on these orders today , and delivery must be made before next Tuesday . Do you think you can handle that ?   We are willing to work with you , but do you think it would be possible to extend your confirmation deadline ? We need to check the warehouse to make sure the products are in stock . The earliest I will be to get back to you is tomorrow morning .   No , I must know today because we have to go to press for the advertisements . Is there anyway you can speed up the process of checking inventory ?   We can do that , but it will cost ... If we have to check our inventory with all our guys on overtime , you're looking at an increased cost of , I'd say , maybe 10 % .   Are you kidding ?
