　　Listen to the dialogue between HaiSports Buyer (HB) and Supplier(s)

　　HB: we need to be receiving deliveries by mid-April realistically.

　　S: if you place an order with us this week, then we can get started.

　　HB: Well our plan is for you to sully all our tennis, badminton and squash racquets.

　　S: Can you give me an idea of the sorts of volumes you’re going to want?

　　HB: We want to buy 1,000 of each initially and then place a follow-up order later in the year.

　　S: Those quantities shouldn’t cause any real problems as far as I can see.

　　HB: Also, we need to receive unbranded goods, since we’ll be putting our own branding on everything.

　　S: That’s fine, why don’t you run you through our payment procedure quickly?

　　HB: Go ahead. That was next on my list anyway.

　　S: well we expect to receive full balance of payment within 30 days of the goods arriving at your warehouse.

　　HB: You had better send all the pricing information through to us as well.

　　S: Yes, I will fax you everything through later today.

　　HB: OK. Then we will be able to send you our order within the next few days.

　　S: You also mentioned delivery times earlier.

　　HB: Yes-how long will it take when you have our order?

　　S: For an order of that size, you’re looking at a lead time of three to four weeks.

　　HB: Up to four weeks? That seems to be rather a long time.

　　S: Yes, but then you can place regular follow-up order and have a steady stream of deliveries coming in

　　HB: That makes pretty good sense, but it’s a bit early to be worrying about follow-up orders really.

　　S: Sure, although you might find that some models sell faster than you expect.

　　An American importer discusses the purchase of photocopying machines with a Taiwan salesman.

　　Importer : I'm thinking of placing an order with you for some of your copiers.

　　Salesman : What model are you interested in?

　　Importer : I like the Rep0100, and the larger model, the Rep 0200.

　　Salesman : Would you like to order some of both, or are you trying to decide between the models?

　　Importer : I think some of both would fit my company's needs best.

　　Salesman : What quantity of each do you think you'll need?

　　Importer : Well, that depends partly on price. Also, I'd like more information on the copiers before I order.

　　Salesman : I'd be happy to answer any questions.

　　Importer : I see from your promotional literature that the larger model can make 44 copies per minute, while the smaller one makes 35.

　　Salesman : That's right.

　　Importer : Does the larger model have a copy-enlarging feature?

　　Salesman : Yes, it does, but the smaller one doesn't. An enlarger is almost never a feature on smaller machines.

　　Importer : What's the frequency of repairs on these machines?

　　Salesman : That depends on many things. For example, how much use the copier gets. These machines have a record of going without repair longer than any copy machines in their price range.

　　Importer : They look as if they would fit our needs. Could I see a price list?

　　Salesman : Here you are.

　　Importer : I think these copiers are fine, but I don't like these prices.

　　Salesman : The prices include the freight company's commission for packing and shipping, plus freight charges to San Francisco.

　　Importer : Then there would be no further costs for shipping the copiers?

　　Salesman : That's right.

　　Importer : The price is no problem then, especially since shipping costs are such a big factor in imports. Does the price also include customs duties?

　　Salesman : Yes, it does.

　　lmporter : Well, then I think we can discuss an order.

　　Salesman ; Let me know the details of your order when you're ready.

　　Importer : By the way, what about English-language instruction manuals?

　　Salesman : English manuals are generally shipped with the copiers to English-speaking countries.
