现答复如下，我方遗憾地告知贵方我客户认为你方价格太高与现行的市价不一致。
有消息表明，你方产品的价格比印度制造的产品高出百分之二十。
我们知道中国产品的质量能略好一点但价格之差不应有如此之大。
鉴于这种情况，我们无法劝说我们的客户接受你方的价格，因为类似质量的货物可以用低得多的价格买到。
为了促进贸易，我们现在代表我客户还盘如下，以你方确认于本月底前到达我处为准：每件36英镑CIF伦敦价含佣金百分之二，其它条款如你方2月20日函所示。
只是鉴于我们之间长期的贸易关系才向你做出如此还盘。
由于行市在不断地下跌，希望你方能对我还盘予以认真考虑并早日传真接受我们的还盘。

34.likelihood n. 可能性35.执事先生：从你方2 月23日来函中得知，我方对标题项下货物的报价被认为是偏高的。
尽管我们很感激你方的合作，向我提供了你地市场印度货物的行情，但十分抱歉不能把价格降到你方所示水平。
我们不得不指出你方还盘显然与现行市场价格不吻合。
因为你邻国买主正在按我们所报价格大量进货。
而且，市场坚挺且有上升趋势。
一旦此报盘失效，要把货物保留而不予售出是不可能的。
鉴于上述情况，为你方利益着想，建议你方立即接受我方每件45英镑CIF伦敦价格。

然而，非常遗憾由于库存短缺，我方不能接受此订单，我生产厂家因原材料变化不稳也不能答应接受你方以后交货的订单。
但我方非常乐意借此机会推荐类似替代品--货号317供你方参考。
一经新货源到来，我方将以传真与贵方重谈此事。
同时，务请将你方对我们任何其它商品的具体询价寄给我们，并请放心我方会随时予以办理。
