[s-ConsDescription]

We hereby demand that the amount of [s-CheckAmount] be paid in cash, by money order, or certified check on or before [s-ChecDate], and notify you that unless said claim is paid within the herein specified time, the goods will be advertised for sale and sold at Public Auction at our warehouse, or Public Auction house located at [s-AucAddress] on [s-AucDate], sale beginning at [s-Time].
