No doubt there is keen competition in the market.We do not deny that the quality of Chinese tea is better and no other tea can compare with yours either for flavor or color, but the difference in price should, in no case, be as great as 8 percent. To close the business, our counteroffer is as follows:300 cases of black tea at 25 pounds per kilogram, other terms as per your letter of March 26.As the market is declining, we recommend your early acceptance.Yours faithfully,8.Dear Sirs:We thank you for your letter of July 10th.After paying due consideration to your proposal and investigating your business standing, we havedecided to appoint you as our sole agent for the sale of Gold Brand Bicycles in the district you defined.We are enclosing a draft agreement.
