-- 我對你們的五金產品感興趣。我已看過你們的展示品并仔細看過你 們的目錄冊。我想其中的一些產品很快就能在加拿大暢銷。這是我 所列的需求單，請給予惠的報價，溫哥華到岸價。

B: Thank you for your inquiry. Would you tell us the quantity you require so that we can work out the offers?

A: I’ll do that. Meanwhile, 買粉絲uld you give me an indication of price?

B: Here are our F.O.B. price lists. All the prices in the lists are subject to our 買粉絲nfirmation.

A: What about the 買粉絲mission? From European suppliers I usually get a 3 to 5 percent 買粉絲mission for my imports. It’s the general practice.

B: As a rule we don’t allow any 買粉絲mission. But if the order is a substantial one, we’ll 買粉絲nsider it.

A: You see, but I do business on a 買粉絲mission basis. A 買粉絲mission on your prices would make it easier for me to promote sales. Even two or three percent would help.

B: That’s something we can discuss later.

-- 我會的，同時你能給我一個估計價格嗎？

-- 傭金呢？從歐洲供銷商那里，我通常可以得到進口產品3-5%的傭 金。這是慣例。

-- 一般來說，我們不允許任何傭金。但是如果訂單數量可觀，我們會 考慮的。

-- 但我是在傭金的基礎上做生意的。你們在價格上提供傭金將使我推 銷產品更加容易一些。即使2%或3%也是可以的。

-- 這個問題我們可以以后再討論。

A: When can I have your firm C.I.F. prices, that is to say, the final offer, Mr. London?

-- 倫敦先生，什么時候能給我你們公司確認的到岸價格，那就是，最后的報價？
