S：Hello, we are the sales representatives of Hangzhou Paradise Umbrella Group

Co.LTD.Nice to meet you!Here is my card.B: Nice to meet you too.We are purchasing managers from Tesco.S: Is there anything we can do for you?

B: Oh , yes.We are in the market for ordering a large quantity of umbrellas.S: We are glad to hear that!Our main export specifications are as follows: long

umbrellas, quintuple folding umbrellas, mini umbrellas, and so on.All are with unique features.B: What are the differences?

S: The long umbrella is larger than others, and it can not be shortened;the

quintuple folding umbrella can be shortened to be smaller and the mini umbrella is the smallest, it can even be put into a small bag.Others are normal umbrellas.B: Thank you for the introduction.Anyway seeing is believing.Is it convenient

for you to show us the real products?

S: Of course!It is just down stairs.This way, please!

B: Thank you.S: As you can see, all of these umbrellas are of good quality and also are popular

in the market.Which kinds do you prefer?

B: After discuion, we decide to order long umbrellas, quintuple folding

umbrellas and mini umbrellas.3000 pieces for each style.B: besides, we’d like to know if you can quote price for these.S: Yes.This is the price list.B: Oh, the price you quote is too high to work on.How about a discount of 20

percent?

S: That sounds a little difficult.You know our quotations always come in line

with the world market.Our articles take a wide range of appear to the consumers either in China or anywhere else.B: But information shows that the price of stationery will continue its downward

tendency in the near future.So I would say that our counter-bid is well found.S: We are sorry the gap between your price and ours is too great.What I mean is,we’ll never be able to come down to your price.B: I think it’s unwise for either of us to insist on our own price.How about

meeting each half way?

S: All right.Our proposal is 10 percent off.Considering further cooperation

between us, we hope you’ll agree to it.B: Though it’s still a bit high, we accept it.S: Ok.As a rule, dispatch such a large quantity of umbrellas by sea FOB London.How is that?

B: Transport by sea is ok.But we think you should pay for the freight.We

wonder if you could accept CIF London.S: We’re sincere to trade with you.But CIF Lyon is indeed unacceptable.So we

only make a conceion of CFR London.B: As we sincere too, CFR London can be accepted.S: Thank you for your efforts.Let’s come to the delivery.B: Ok.We wonder if you can make shipment before the end of June.S: We regret our inability to comply with your request for shipping goods before

the end of June.B: Then when is the earliest shipment we can expect?

urgently needing it.We manage to make more profits among these days.S: I can understand.But we’ve done more busine this year than in any of the

previous years.B: Could you please try to advance the time of shipment, in early July, for

manage to make the shipment in early July, or earlier.B: Thank you very much.B: Let’s discu the packaging of goods now.Could you please tell me your

packaging method for this king of goods?

S: Sure.The goods are packed in cartons of 20 dozen each.B: What? Cartons? I’m afraid that will not do.It’s not strong enough for a long

sea voyage.S: It doesn’t matter much.We strengthen the cartons with four nylon straps

outside.B: Why not try wooden cases?

S: A wooden case is much heavier than a carton.The freight would increase.B: It doesn’t matter how much the freight will be.We just want to have our

goods to be packed safely.S: You can be aured.We’ll pay particular attention to that.B: It seems that we have no other choice.Ok, I accept it.S: As for inner packing, we use a beautifully designed silk bag.You know

Chinese national style is of much help in promoting sales.B: That’s good!Attractive packing is important because it creates a good

impreion.S: That’s true.By the way, do you have any other questions or requirements

regarding packing?

B: No, nothing else.B: Well, what is the mode of payment you usually accept?

S: Confirmed, irrevocable L/C, the normal payment terms in international trade.B: We see.But to be frank, the payment by L/C is complicated and costs us a lot.What’s more, we shall pay a large sum of deposit because the total amount of this is big.So we wonder if you could accept D/P or D/A as a special

treatment?

S: Well, we understand.But you should know that irrevocable L/C gives us, the

exporter, the additional protection of the bank’s guarantee.B: Then, what do you say to 50 percent by L/C and the balance by D/P?

S: Well, for further cooperation, we agree to your suggestion.B: So the deal is close now?

S: Yes.We are glad that we’ve come to an agreement at last.B: We too.If everything goes smoothly, we are likely to make lager orders with

you before long.S: Thank you.We are waiting for your final confirmation.B: Ok.Bye!
