小所在的公司与智利某服装进口贸易公司
D/P是远期付款交单,就是说买方必须在向卖方付款之后才能够获得提取货物的单据,这种交易方式使卖方能够及时地收到货款。采用85% D/P的方式付款,可以降低风险。因此,综合公司收集到的其他信息考虑,小公司可以继续与H公司进行合作。小公司还可通过银行、驻外商务机构、商会或同业公会、或我国的有关外贸公司等进行资信调查。

我出口企业根据某法商询盘、、、由于电信局投递延误,信件通知6日上午才到,市价上升,我方回绝,法商认为不是他的责任,坚持合同有效,我方不同意,提交仲裁,如何裁决?若我方未拒绝,如何裁决? 这是一种在有效期发的接受通知,在正常情况下本来可以按期送达,但因出现异常情况导致接受迟到,

一、信函撰写
铁丝报价,客户回信认为价格过高,回信包含:原标准价格上涨,质量上乘,不打折,现货不多,望重新考虑,尽快回复,欢迎其他询盘 Dear Sirs,
We have received your letter of April 9, in which you mentioned that you find our quotation for the iron wire too high to accept. Much as we would like to cooperate with you in expanding sales, we are regretful that we cannot accept your counter-offer.
There are three reasons for this. First, the prices of materials have increased largely; second, your order of 1000kg is the minimum quantity we require and I am afraid no discount is available for such an order; third, with high quality considered, our price is very reasonable. Besides, through our study of your market situation, we are confident our offer is competitive. As a matter of fact, we have received a lot of orders from many countries at that price.
We are confident the good quality of our iron wire will help you a lot to stand firmly in your market. And as our stocks are running low, it is advisable for you to make an immediate decision. If you cannot accept our price, we welcome you to pay attention to other products of ours. We will give prompt and favorable response to any other inquiries of yours.
We wish you to place your orders as soon as possible.
Yours faithfully,
