K: Thanks. We'll look into it carefully.
J: How about the supply position of your products?
K: We have a steady supply for most of them.
J: Do you quote FOB or CIF?
K: We usually quote on CIF basis.
J: The market at our end has become pretty competitive.
In order to sell successfully there, your goods will have to be competitive inprice as well.
K: You'll find our prices very attractive.
J: Would you give us an offer for Art.No.17 CIF New Delhi now?
K: What's the quantity?
J: We'd like to start with 10,000 pieces. It's an attractive quantity, isn'tit?
K: When do you want the goods to be delivered?
J: Could you make it for June?
K: I think we should manage.
J: We pay by Letter of Credit.
K: O.K. So now we can offer you 10,000 pieces of Art No.17 at US $5 per pieceCIF New Delhi for shipment in June.
J: Thank you. How long will this offer be open?
K: It's valid for three days.
J: I will study your offer with my colleagues and give you a definite reply inthree days.
K: I'll be waiting for your reply. Few days after……
J: We are surprised to find that your price is 25% higher than those of othercompanies.
K: 25%? You can't be serious!
J: That has been confirmed by our survey. I'm afraid I'll have to cancel thedeal unless you reduce your price.
K: But you know fully well that our product is of superior quality. Otherproducts can't be compared with it.
J: True. But it's also a fact that your price is too high.
K: Then what's your idea of a good price?
J: I would say 20% off the listed price.
K: Impossible. We won't make any profit at that price. 10% off is the best wecan do.
J: That's still too high.
K: Our quality is far beyond comparison. Besides, the market is advancing.
Our goods can always sell.
J: Other companies are also saying that their products are the best.
K: Let's meet each other half way. I'll cut another 5%. That's definitely myrock bottom price.
J: All right. That's settled.
K: Since this is the first deal between us, I hope we can trade on customaryterms, that is a letter of credit payable against sight draft..
J: I understand your position. But at the moment, I do have some difficulty.Could you make an exception, say, to accept D/P?
K: I would like to bend the rules a little if possible, but we accept D/P onlyif the amount is under USD1,000. This is not the case now. We could only acceptconfirmed, irrevocable L/C.
J: That's all right. Can we discuss the packing now?
K: Sure. We usually pack our toy in box, three dozen to one carton.
J: Acceptable. But please pay attention to the design of the inner packing.
K: Please do not worry. All the bags are beautifully designed to come in linewith the local market preference at your end.
J: Have you got any samples here? I'd like to have a look.
K: Here you are.
J: It does look good,.
K: Thank you. Our way of packing has been widely accepted by other clients, andwe have received no complaints whatsoever up to now.
J: Well, I suppose there is no other choice. Now that we've settled the termsof payment, is it possible to effect shipment in June?
K: I don't think we can.
J: Then when is the earliest shipment we can expect?
K: By the middle of July, I think..
J: That's too late. You see, August is the season for this commodity in ourmarket, and our customs formalities are rather complicated.
K: I understand.
J: Well, the flow through the marketing channels and the red tape involved takeat least a couple of weeks. So, after shipment it will probably be another fourto five weeks before the goods can reach our retailers. So the goods reallyought to be shipped before July, or we won't be ready for the season.
K: Our factories are fully committed for the second quarter, in fact, many ofour clients are placing orders for delivery in the third quarter.
J: Mr. Lee , certainly you realize that time of delivery is a matter of greatimportance to us.
If we place our goods on the market at a time when all other importers havealready sold their goods at profitable prices, we shall lose out.
K: I see your point. However, we have done more business this year than any ofthe previous years. I am very sorry to say that we cannot advance the time ofdelivery.
J: I'm sorry to hear that. I sincerely hope you will give our request yourspecial consideration.
K: You may take it from me that the last thing we want to do is to disappoint acustomer, particularly an new customer like you. But the fact remains that ourmanufacturers have a heavy backlog on their hands.
J: But can't you find some way to get round your producers for an earlierdelivery? Make a special effort, would you? A timely delivery means a lot tous.
K: All right, Mr. Black. We'll get in touch with our producers and see whatthey have to say. After aday
J: Your quotation is on CIF basis. How do you cover insurance?
K: We always insure our goods with the People's Insurance Company of Chinaas per their Ocean Marine Cargo Clause, Jan.1, 1981 revision.
J: I have to say that I know very little about this clause. Can you explain ita little?
K: OK. OMCC provides coverage of three basic risks, some additional risks andsome special additional risks. The three basic risks are Free from ParticularAverage (F.P.A), With Particular Average (W.P.A.) and All Risks (A.R.).
J: What do they mean respectively?
K: Well, roughly speaking, F.P.A. covers total loss resulting from both naturalcalamities and accidents, and partial loss caused by accidents.
J: What about W.P.A.?
K: W.P.A. has a broader coverage. It covers everything in F.P.A. plus partialloss caused by natural calamities.
J: And All Risks?
K: All Risks means WPA plus additional risks, or extraneous risks, risks notincidental to transport by sea.
J: I see. Now, for this particular article, what risks do you usually cover?
K: We usually insure against All Risks for 110% of the invoice value.
J: Does All Risks include War Risk?
K: No. War Risk is a special additional risk, and it has to be arrangedseparately.
J: But judging from the recent situation in Somali pirates, I think War Riskshould be covered.
K: We can certainly do this, but it is subject to an additional premium,because our CIF quotation doesn't include this risk.
J: Additional premium? That's not a problem. There's no harm in doing things onthe safe side.
K: Then we will cover War Risk for you.
J: Good. One more thing,whatif I want a 130% coverage?
K: You mean 130% of the invoice value?
This can be done, but you will have to pay the extra premium too.
J: In that case I'd rather have 110%.
After two days
J: So, now we have covered all the important points.
K: Yes, I think so.
J: Before we draft the contract, let's examine the details
K: OK. Under this contract, we will supply you 270 dozen Solar energy combinetoy at US$ 60 per dozen , CIF New Delhi..Shipment in July. payment by irrevocable sight L/C . Other terms will be thesame as our previous contract.
J: Perfect. But what I'm concerned about most is the time of delivery.
K: You may rest assured that shipment will be made within the time limitstipulated in the contract. But there is also one point I'd like to stress.
J: Yes?
K: our L/C must be opened at least one month before the time of shipment,otherwise we won't be able to catch the ship.
J: No problem. I'll have the covering L/C opened as soon as I get back.
K: Fine. I'm very glad our negotiations have arrived at a successfulconclusion.
J: Me too. I hope this initial deal will result in further transactions betweenus.
K: Of course. We will have the Sales Contract made out in two days
J: Please remember to use both English and Chinese, and both versions should beequally valid.
K: Naturally. Each of us keeps one original and two copies.
J: Then I'll come along two days later to put my signature on it.

J: Well Mr. Lee, it's been very pleasant talking with you.
K: Thanks. By the way, do you have any plans for tonight
J: None whatsoever. I'm at your disposal.
