unit 7 part 1 161 we hope you will consider our counteroffer most favorably and tell us your decision at your earliest convenience 162 we wish you will reconsider your price and give a new bed so that there can be a possibility for us to meet halfway 163 to accept the price as you quote would leave us with only a small profit on our sales because the principle demand in our city is for articles in the medium price range 164 your competitors are offering considerably lower prices and unless you can reduce your quotations we shall have to buy elsewhere 165 to accept your present quotation would mean a heavy loss to us not to speak of profit 166 I wish to point out that your offers are higher than some of the quotations from your competitors and other countries 167 your price really leaves no margin for reduction whatsoever 168 we can obtain the same quality through another channel at a much lower price than that you quoted us 169 there is a big difference between your price and those of your competitors 170 we hope that you will quote us your rock-bottom price otherwise we have no alternative but to place our orders elsewhere 171 if you insist on your original offer it will reduce our profit considerably 172 we didn't expect that the discount you offer would be so low 173 your price should be based on the actual situation of our customers 174 in our market products of similar types are so many and with such low prices that many of our regular customers may switch to other companies I'm afraid 175 your offer is acceptable because we have another supplier offering similar quality products at a four percent discount 176 your quotation is by no means favorable with those of other origins 177 I'm sorry to say that your prices are about nine percent higher than those offered by other suppliers 178 compared with what is quoted by other suppliers your price is uncompetitive 179 your price compares unfavorably with your competitors 180 our counteroffer is well in line with the international market fair and reasonable part 2 181 your offer is wider than we can consider 182 we very much regret to state that our end users here find your price too high and out of line with the prevailing market level 183 we appreciate the good quality of your goods but unfortunately we are not going to accept the offer on your terms 184 we find your prices are too high to be acceptable 185 we regret to say that your offer is not my least encouraging 186 the quotation submitted by you is too high 187 we regret that it is impossible for us to entertain the bed 188 you're making us pay to higher price that'll put us in a tight corner 189 it would be impossible for me to push any sales at such high prices 190 your price is beyond our expectation 191 you should know that the price of the same product should be fixed differently in different markets but yours is definitely too high in our market ninety-two your quotation of sewing machines is too high to be acceptable 193 we regret to say that your price is on the high side we do not think there's any possibility of business unless you cut your price by 20% 194 your price has gone up so rapidly it would be impossible for us to push any sales at such a price 195 we regret to say that there is no possibility of business because of your high price 196 the price you offered is entirely unworkable 197 if you hang on to the original offer business is impossible 198 if you are able to make the price easier we might take a larger quantity 199 there's little likelihood of concluding business at your price 200 we think that your offer is not favorable for us to increase the market share on our end unit 8 part 1 201 your counteroffer is much too low especially considering the small amount of your order 202 our price is fixed on a reasonable level 203 our products are moderately priced 204 this is the best price we can give you 205 the price has been reduced to the limit 206 our price is already on its lowest level 207 there is little scope for further reducing the price 208 considerable quantities have been sold at this level any further reduction is out of the question 209 we cannot make any further discounts 210 this is our rock-bottom price we can't make any further concessions 211 sorry we generally do not quote on a discount basis 212 we can't make any allowance for this lopped 213 this is the very best offer we can make for you we consider this a rock-bottom price indeed 214 I'm afraid there is no room to negotiate the price 215 this is a special offer and is not subject to our usual discount 216 the possibility of a fall in price is rather remote I'm afraid 217 the price we offer you is the lowest we cannot do better 218 we very much regret to say that we can't cut the price to the extent you require it 219 we are in a difficult position to satisfy your request for reducing the price 220 it is really difficult to comply with your request for shading the price part-2 221 I dare say that the prices we offer compare favorably with any quotations you can obtain elsewhere 222 I'm afraid you won't find a mother company who will give you a cheaper price than ours 223 what we give you is a good price we don't think it could be put better take it or leave it it's up to you 224 if you compare the quality of our goods with that of othe countries you'll see that our price is very reasonable 225 the price we quoted you for belts is much lower than that of last year's you must have found it very competitive 226 our offer might be a bit high but you will soon make bigger profits when market fluctuations stop 227 the present market situation is on an upward trend so you don't have to worry about the profit 228 our product is rather competitive so there is n question of profit 229 your counteroffer seems to be a little tight if so our profit margin will be too small 230 if you increase your initial order to 30 thousand I suppose we would consider reducing the price to $380 per unit 231 if you double the order we may consider giving you an 8 percent discount 232 the best we can do is to allow you to percent off our quotation 233 there are so many rich people in your area to them a high price means a good quality product 234 if you stick to your counteroffer without any compromise we might not be able to make a deal 235 your bid is obviously out of line with the price ruling in the present market 236 we regret that we cannot book your order according to your counteroffer 237 our table clauses are moderately priced and quite saleable in your market 238 we don't think that this price can be considered high in your market 239 we feel that your counteroffer is not proper because the price for such material is on the rise at present 240 we are not in a position to entertain business at your price since it is far below our cost price unit mine part 1 241 all your quotations are on an fo BV Vancouver basis may I ask if you allow any discount 242 isn't it possible to give us a little more discount 243 if you are prepared to give me some allowance I'll consider placing an order for 10000 dozen 244 should you be prepared to reduce your price we might come to terms 245 if I show you an offer lower than yours would you be able to conclude transaction at that price 246 if the order is a substantial one how much will you come down 247 may we suggest that you make some allowance on your quoted prices 248 if we place an order for 2,000 doesn't up can you give us a special discount 249 if our order is more than 10,000 metric tons will you give us an additional 6% Commission 250 we hope you will allow us some discount on our purchase of 6000 dozen 251 we'd like to ask for a reduction in price because of the large size of our order 252 since the present market is so weak they'll have to lower your price if you want us to increase sales 253 we hope to get your best offer for bicycles 254 we invite quotation of the lowest price 255 may we suggest that you could perhaps make some allowance on your quoted prices part 2 256 if you reduce the price by 2% I think we can do 20 metric tons 257 if possible we'd like to ask for a reduction the $5 50 cents per metric ton 258 if you are willing to get me a 5% reduction I'll order 5,000 dozen 259 the sugar a French mate has been sold at the level of $98 per lawn ton if you can reduce your limit by say 8% we might come to terms 260 we would very much like to place further orders with you if you could bring down your prices by 15% otherwise we can only switch our requirements to other suppliers 261 no one can do business at such unreasonably high prices you have to cut them down by at least 10% on the Freid 262 we show book a trial order with you provided you will give us a 5% Commission 263 only by cutting the price by more than 10% can more customers be lured to buy your products 264 we would like to ask for 10% off your offer if our offer is more than 2500 units per season 265 we hope that you will give us a special discount of 2% if we order more than 10,000 sets 266 please make a discount of 5% off the prices in the catalog 267 we hope that you will make at least a 4% reduction on your quotation or business is not possible 268 we can accept the goods only at a reduction of 20% off the contract price 269 if you can lower your limit by 5% business was hopeful 270 we will place our order with you if you could lower your price to 1200 pounds per metric ton unit 10 271 on orders for 100 pieces or more we allow a special discount of 1.5% 270 to a

we are not ready yet to discuss the question of agency at the present moment 400 since the market situation is not known to us we are not going to take the question of sole agency into consideration for the time being 401 as the volume of business concluded by you last year is not big enough we won't consider the question of agency 402 we think it premature for us to discuss the question of agency at the present stage 403 the time is not yet mature for discretion of agency 404 we would like to say that at this initial stage of contracts between us both sides do not understand each other very well so there seems to be no sufficient basis for us to negotiate agency 405 I am afraid that this is not a good time yet to push the sales of our product in your market 406 we do not think the time is ripe for the discussion of the question of exclusive agency 407 we regret to say that since there is so far no transaction concluded between us we have to decline your request for agency 408 the question of agency is still under consideration and we hope that you will continue your efforts to push the sale of our products at the present stage 409 we shall not consider appointing you as our cell agent until your sales records justify our doing so 410 shall we discuss the matter of agency when your market conditions turn better unit 15 part 1 411 we cannot give you exclusive agency of the whole European market without having the slightest idea of your possible annual marketing turnover for 2:12 before we know your sales volume your plan for promotion and the import license

your business organizations and various districts and their activities 415 unless you increase the turnover we can hardly appoint you as our sole agent 416 if you can push the sale of our products

need to increase your annual turnover 419 to be our agent you are requested to push the sales or our products effectively 428 we hope you'll do your best to push the sale of our products 421 to

annual turnover should be at least 8,000 cents 424 if we could agree to terms we would appoint you as our sole agent 425 terms prove workable we think you would be just the firm we would like to have to represent us part two 426 if you wish to work for other firms as well you must obtain our permission first 427 to be our sole agent you should not sell similar products from other manufacturers without our prior approval 428 as our agent you should not sell products of similar characteristics from other makers we must make that very clear 429 as our sole distributor you will neither handle

to send us your sales statistics every six months instead of every year 435 as our agent you should send us your market reports regularly at least once every three months 436 at the beginning of the sales promotion you have to try every means to overcome sales difficulties 437 to effectively promote sales your way of doing business should always comply with the constantly changing circumstances

terms of payment are too severe 442 we would like to have another discussion of these conditions in the afternoon before they are finally included in the contract 443 before signing the contract this afternoon I think we'd better go over a few final details 444 we'd better draw up a rough draft of the contract and then talk it over in detail at our next meeting 445 this is a copy of our specimen contract in which the general sales terms and conditions are contained 446 we hope that you won't object to our inserting such a clause in the agreement 447 if any other clause in this contract is in conflict with supplementary conditions the supplementary conditions should be taken as final and binding 448 we think it necessary to include a force majeure clause in the contract 449 after studying your draft contract we find it necessary to make a few changes 450 since both of us are in agreement on all the terms shall we sign the contract now 451 we think your draft contract needs some

agreement will remain valid for one year and shall become effective on the date of signing 462 we'd like to make the contract to be valid for two years at the beginning 463 I think we'd better make some changes in the wording of this sentence 464 isn't it better to word it in this way forward sixty-five I'd like to replace this phrase with after the date of delivery 466 if neither party considers it necessary to extend the contract the proposing party may take the initiative to conduct negotiation with the other party one month prior to its expiration 467 in case of a breach of any

regret to say that unless you are able to give us an assurance of delivery within the next two weeks we shall be obliged to cancel the order 709 if shipment is too late we'll be forced to withdraw the contract 710 if you still delay the delivery I'll have to cancel the order 711 if you can't effect delivery within the stipulated time we will have to lodge a claim against you for the loss and reserve the right to cancel the contract 712 if you fail to deliver the goods according to the agreed time you should indemnify us for all losses and corresponding expenses 713 if there is still no information from you about the expedition of shipment by the end of this month will be forced to cancel the contract and reserve the right to lodge a claim against you for the loss 714 we wish to point out that if you fail to affect shipment within the time specified we shall not be able to fulfill the contract with our clients 715 we would like to emphasize that any delay in shipping our booked order will undoubtedly involve us in no small difficulty 716 your failure to deliver the goods within the stipulated time has greatly inconvenienced us 717 any delay in shipment would be detrimental to our future business 718 we trust you will see to it that the order is shipped within the stipulated time as any delay would cause us no little financial loss 719 as you know June is the right season for the goods so if they arrive later than June we will miss the selling season 720 should you delay the shipment any longer the fireworks might become useless to us unit 25 part 1 721 we should settle the dispute through negotiations without resorting to legal proceedings 722 we prefer to resolve disputes by amicable non-binding conciliation between the two parties 723 as a matter of fact most disputes can be settled in a friendly way with a view to developing a long-term relationship 724 all disputes in connection with this contract shall be settled through friendly negotiation 725 personally I should say it's so much better to resolve the dispute through friendly negotiations between ourselves 726 friendly negotiation is the best way to settle the dispute between us if there is any 727 where do you want to have the arbitration held 728 as far as the place for arbitration is concerned the customary practice is to hold arbitration in the country of the defendant 729 if we submit the case for arbitration the place for arbitration is to be in Japan and if you submit the case for arbitration the place for arbitration is to be in China 730 if the buyer is the plaintiff the arbitration shall take place in Beijing 731 the members of this arbitration association are professionally competent and in a position to arbitrate that sort of case arising from the quality inspection of the medical equipment 732 generally speaking all the fees for arbitration shall be borne by the losing party unless otherwise awarded by the court 733 the decision made by the arbitration Commission shall be accepted as final and binding upon both parties 734 the losing party shall bear the cost for arbitration according to the contract 735 we require you to compensate us with an amount of losses totaling 748 thousand pounds caused by your failure to execute the contract and with all the expenses arising from this arbitration part-2 736 if any dispute should arise over the inspection we may submit it for arbitration 737 if you are not prepared to compensate our laws we suggest the case be submitted for arbitration 738 the dispute shall be submitted for arbitration by a mutually nominated arbitrator 739 we may discuss to agree upon a temporary arbitral body when needed 740 if no settlement can be reached between the two parties the case under dispute shall be submitted to the third party accepted by both parties for arbitration 741 in case of any dispute and no settlement can be reached through friendly negotiations then we can submit the case to an international arbitration organization for arbitration 742 it's better to submit the case for arbitration to a temporary arbitration court 743 we think that the court consisting of arbitrators from both sides must be fair and able to handle the dispute without bias or partiality 744 since this dispute is not negotiable it is necessary to resort to arbitration 745 if you don't accept our propositions we might submit the matter to arbitration 746 we should include an arbitration clause in the contract 747 you needn't worry about that there is an arbitration clause in the contract 748 shall we discuss the arbitration clause now 749 it's best to attempt to settle disputes without involving arbitration 750 we are now applying formally to the arbitration Commission for arbitration of
