We have much pleasure in enclosing a quotation sheet for our products and trust that their high quality will induce you to place a trial order.5. We put forward for your consideration an offer for our new products, and hope you will take advantage of this opportunity.6. This is in reply to your enquiry of March 8, 2011. We are now sending you a quotation sheet for your consideration. Please be informed that, on account of the fluctuations of foreign exchange, the quotation is subject to change without previous notice.7.

The material supplied must be absolutely waterproof, and we place our order subject to this guarantee.5. While thanking you for your order, we have to explain that supplies of raw materials are becoming more and more difficult to obtain, and we have no alternative but to decline your order.6. It is regrettable to see an order dropped owing to no agreement on price; however, we wish to recommend you another quality at a lower price for your consideration.7.

Schneider &kern have given us your name as a reference respecting their financial standing. Will you please inform us, in confidence, of the extent of their resources and also as to their reputation.10.

We have much pleasure in enclosing a quotation sheet for our products and trust that their high quality will induce you to place a trial order.5.
