1.Buyer: How are you Mr. Wang? Glad to hear you again. We've settled the questions of price, quality and quantity. Now what about the terms of payment?

　　王先生，最近怎么樣?很高興再次和你通話。我們已經(jīng)談妥了價格，質量和數(shù)量的問題，該談談付款方式了吧?

　　2.SELLER: Morning, Mr. Smith. Thanks for calling me for payment negotiation.

　　早上好，史密斯先生。謝謝你為了這件事來電。

　　3.BUYER: Do you accept D/A or D/P?

　　承兌交單或付款交單的方式可以嗎?

　　4.SELLER: Sorry. We only accept irrevocable Letter of Credit payable against shipping documents.

　　對不起，我們只接受不可撤銷信用證的方式，見票付款。

　　5.BUYER: I see. But as you know, the Western market has been declining recently. Business is not easy as it used to be. As an old client of yours, I think we should enjoy your special treatment. I hope you would allow us to pay by D/A or D/P.

　　我明白。但你也知道，西方市場最近持續(xù)萎靡，生意不像之前那么好做了。我們也是貴公司的老主顧了，總該得到一點特殊對待吧。希望貴公司能同意以承兌交單或付款交單的方式付款。

　　6.SELLER: I understand your situation, Mr. Smith. As you pointed out, the Western economy is going down; the international financial market is not stable. To be on the safe side, we can't make exceptions.

　　我理解貴公司的處境，但你剛剛也說了，西方經(jīng)濟在逐步下滑;國際金融市場也處于不穩(wěn)定的狀態(tài)，為了安全起見，我們還是不能例外。

　　7.BUYER: It will increase our expenses to open the L/C and tie up our funds.

　　開信用證會增加我們的成本，這樣我們的資金會更加緊張。

　　8.SELLER: Dear Mr. Smith, as one of our old customers, you know well that Chinese kites have enjoyed a good reputation in your market and will be selling well. The quick turnover will not only free your cost on L/C, but also benefit you a lot.

　　親愛的史密斯先生，您作為我們的老主顧，應該很清楚我們中國的風箏質量在貴國市場上的聲譽，肯定會暢銷的。這不僅僅能緩解你開信用證的資金壓力，也能大賺一筆呢。

　　9.BUYER: Your words sound OK, but we still feel that to pay by L/C is not reasonable, especially at present when the world market is inactive. In order to conclude this transaction, we both need to make some concessions. How about 50% by L/C, 50% by D/P? Otherwise we might turn to other suppliers.

　　你說的很有道理，但是我們還是覺得用信用證的方式付款不合理，尤其是在現(xiàn)在世界經(jīng)濟不活躍的情況下。為了談成這筆生意，我們雙方都需要做一些讓步。一半用信用證一半用承兌怎么樣?如果不行的話我們只能找別家了。

　　10.SELLER: Mr. Smith, as I said, we only accept L/C. Since you are our old customer and your order is quite large, how about 70% by L/C and 30% by D/P? This is not our normal practice. If you agree, we can make the deal. If not, I can't do anything else.

　　史密斯先生，我剛剛說過了，我們是非信用證不接受的�？丛谀�是我們老主顧的份上，也看在您定了這么大量商品的份上，70%用信用證，30%用承兌匯票怎么樣?我們這么做可算是例外了。如果你同意，那我們就成交，如果你不同意，那我也無能為力了。
