We await your early reply with best regards.

Dear Sirs,
It was a pleasure to meet you at the TEXTILES Fair 2021 and to receive your enquiry for our table cloth.
In fact, the price we quoted at the Fair is already the most favorable one. However, in order to save time and to start business, we will further lower our price as follows:
TABLE CLOTH ART. NO. 1001 AT USD 10.00/BOX CIF BOSTON
We are sure this will be acceptable to you. Let us start our business and we will offer you our best service.
We look forward to your early reply.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sirs,
We thank you for your new order, but we find your price for 10 pcs/box table cloth of USD12.50 per box is too low. Our calculation points to USD12.80 per box. But in order to start, we think we can accept USD12.70/box. If you agree, we will fax you our Sales Contract for your signature.
Shipping marks are at our option.
Payment: by a confirmed, irrevocable Letter of Credit in our favor, payable by draft at sight.
Insurance is to be covered by us for 110% of the invoice value against All Risks.
Delivery: within 30 days after receiving the relative L/C.
For your information, according to our calculation, a 20-foot container can hold 600 cartons of 10-pc boxes or 300 cartons of 20-pc boxes.
Yours faithfully,
Qingdao King Industrial & Trading Co.

Dear Sirs,
Thanks for your E-mail. We regret we are unable to accept USD12.70 for 10–pc boxes. The best we can do is USD12.60/box, for the start of our cooperation.
As we indicated earlier, you should accept the above price, taking into consideration the higher cost of freight at our expense.
Payment and date of shipment are acceptable. Please entertain our bid, so that we can proceed with the opening of the relevant L/C.
Yours sincerely,
Boston Trading Co. Ltd., USA

Dear Sirs,
As the cost of raw material is increasing sharply these days, we are facing big problems. Please appreciate our position.

Also enclosed is our banking information. Please establish the covering L/C as soon as possible and fax us a copy of it for our reference.
We are glad to have concluded this initial transaction with you. We hope this would mark the beginning of a long-standing and steady business relationship between us.

JOHN: Have you had a chance to look over the contract?
LORRIE: Yes.I've read it carefully.
JOHN: And do you have any questions?
LORRIE: No.But the contract stipulates that I will teach 22 hours a week.Will you have that many classes for me right away?
JOHN: No, probably not.For the first two weeks you may teach 10 or 15 hours.
LORRIE : But my salary will be 1 100 dollars a month.Will you pay me that much for the first month? Because, I mean, I won't be working so many hours.
JOHN: I understand.That's why I didn't write the date on the contract.For the first two weeks, we will pay you according to the hours you teach.When you have 22 hours of classes, then the contract will take effect.Is that alright with you?
LORRIE: Oh, so I don't sign the contract today.Is that right?
JOHN: I don't want you to misunderstand, Miss Briggs.We are very serious about hiring you.We want you to teach for us.We usually do contracts this way because it is more convenient.
LORRIE: I can accept that.
JOHN: Good.And your benefits will begin immediately.
LORRIE: Even my health insurance?
JOHN: Yes.We will apply for your health insurance tomorrow.And your free membership in the club starts today if you like.
LORRIE: I have a few questions about the free membership.
JOHN: What would you like to know?
LORRIE : Is my membership the same as paying club members? I mean, can I get discounts at club hotels?
JOHN: Absolutely.The only difference is in the restaurant and bar vouchers.
LORRIE: What are bar vouchers?
JOHN: Paying club members get around 300 dollars a year in restaurant vouchers.The vouchers can be used in the restaurant or the lounge.But we don't offer vouchers to employees.
LORRIE: But according to the contract, employees get a discount in the restaurant.
JOHN: That's fight.So in a way, it is cheaper for you than for the members.You get more benefits than they do.
LORRIE: So, for now, you want me to keep a copy of the contract.But we won't sign it yet.Is that right?
JOHN: Yes.I've prepared the contract just so that you understand everything, so that you understand the terms.
LORRIE: I understand.And according to the terms on the contract, I am happy to accept this job.I look forward to it.
JOHN: I'm very pleased.We look forward to having you here, Miss Briggs.
