Is “demonstrated” the correct word to be used here in this context?

———————

Dear Boss, are you interested to buy the modem *demonstrated* by the salesman in our office this afternoon. If yes, they will send the modem tomorrow morning along with the bill to our office. Thanks

Try this it’s called English:

Dear Mr. So and so:

Writing to see if you are interrested in purchasing the modem, demonstrated by the sales rep today.

If so they will deliver it tomorrow with an invoice.

Thanks for your attention,

Bob

cc Mr ss

purchasing

file

interrested to buy nono

redundant use of word office

Generally poor grammar, diction, and sloppy writing, the only thing right was demonstrated

“demonstrated” is ok, but the rest of the sentence needs help. “If you are interested in purchasing the modem which the salesman demonstrated this afternoon, XXX (the modem company’s name) can have the modem to us along with the bill by tomorrow morning.”

if the salesman actually hooked it up and showed how it ran he did indeed demonstrate it. If he did something less like show you what it looked like and a slide show of it’s features the word presented might be more appropriate.

Yes, it is correct. However, I would say “Are you interested in buying”. You also need a comma after “morning” and “bill”.
