This is because the letter was written on 12 Tishrei, likely the same day that Ismāʿīl b. Faraḥ wrote T-S 10J15.4 to Nahray b. Nissim. Gil dates T-S 10J15.4 on the basis of its similarity to BL OR 5542.9, which was written when Monday fell on the 27th of Elul, which apparently happened in 1053 CE and 1056 CE, and of the two he believes 1056 CE to be a better fit. […] "do not buy anything if eye-does-not-see" (T-S 13J26.22) or "if my son turns out to be a worthless employee, get rid of him ('make him eye-does-not-see')" (T-S 24.78); cf. also ENA NS 10.19. […] Corroborating evidence for the absence of illness is that Ismāʿīl wrote to Nahray on the same day (T-S 10J15.4) and two days later (T-S 8.66) and did not send good wishes for a recovery.

Goitein dates the letter to seven weeks before T-S 8J19.27 (PGPID 7670), approximately 458–59/1066 (Goitein, Letters of Medieval Jewish Traders, 46n2), during the shidda al-ʿuzma in Egypt, when traders were eager to secure whatever food they could: "You know the times we are in, do not delay, these are difficult times."

Some of the items, e.g., "laymūn safarjalī," are similar to those on T-S AS 151.245 (PGPID 28989). As "quince-like lemon" does not make sense, it is probably implied that all of these are syrups (e.g., [sharāb] laymūn safarjalī).
