Dear Sir or Madam:
It’s a great pleasure that you are interested in our silk dresses series A. As you know, we have specialized in this line for many years. The advantages of our products are excellent in quality and moderate in price. Our offer is based on a reasonable profit expectation, not on wild speculations. For your information, Series A is enjoying great popularity in European markets which is superior to series B in pattern and quality and also more competitive than other similar products. I’m afraid a discount of 20% for series A is on the high side. At this discount, we could only supply you series B which is similar to series A. There is only a little difference in patterns. As series A, if you place a substantial order, we shall make you a firm offer at us$45 on CIF Stockholm Sweden and make a prompt delivery. As the peaking season is approaching, please do not hesitate to place your order with us.
We look forward to your favorable reply.
