今天的例文的题目是: (A) Covering Insurance for the Buyer

Dear sirs,

Contract No.1785-5 Tons White Printing Paper

We wish to draw your attention to the fact that the subject contract is booked on CFR basis, whereas your L/C calls for CIF. This is obviously inconsistent.

We would have cabled you for amendment, but on second thoughts we refrained from doing so. To avoid delay in shipment, the simplest way would be for us to arrange the necessary coer here and to deduct the premium, which would amount to $18 from the 2% commission payable to you. Any leftover will be remitted to you as soon as the proceeds have been collected from the letter of credit.

We trust the above will be acceptable to you.

Your faithfully,

函电 (49) ------ B

今天一看我的帖子,好伤心啊,又到第五页去了 越来越没朋友看这个帖子拉!

今天的例文是: Insurance Clause

Dear sirs,

Additional Risk of Breakage

We refer to your L/C No.157 covering Glazed Wall Tiles, which we have just received.

Please note for this article we do not cover Breakage. You have to, therefore, delete the word "Breakage" from the insurance clause in the credit.

Furthermore, we wish to point out that for such articles as window glass, porcelains, etc, even if additional Risk of Breakage has been insured, the cover is subject to a franchise of 5%. In other words, if the breakage is surveyed to be less than 5%, no claim for damage will be entertained.

We trust that the position is now clear. Please cable the amendment at once.

Yours faithfully,

Chapter Ten

当你的货装船运出去了后,是否你的任务就已经结束,你是否就可以松下一口气来喝口茶呢? 朋友,还不呢! 你还要面临另一个新的难题呢! 就是售后服务! 有时候不免会收到客人的一些对货物的各方面的投诉,那这时候你该怎么应对呢? 不怕,这里会选取部分的例文贡献大家,以供参考!

先来一段介绍: Complaints and Claims

There are two kinds of complaints which are frequently made by buyers:

1. The genuine complain, which arises from one of the following situations:

a) The wrong goods may have been sent.

b) The quality may not be satisfactory.

c) The goods may have been delivered damaged or late.

d) The prices charged may be excessive, or not as agreed.

2. There is the complaint mady by buyers who find fault with the goods as an excuse to escape from their contracts, either because they no longer want the goods or because they have found that they can get them cheaper elsewhere.

          If a complaint has to be made by buyers, the matter should be investigated in detail, and these details should be laid before the party charged. When making a complaint, plan your letter as follows:

a) Begin by regretting the need to complain.

b) Mention the date of the order, the date of delivery and the goods complained about.

c) State your reasons for being dissatisfied and ask for an explanation.

d) Refer to the inconvenience caused.

e) Suggest how the matter should be put right.

           Replies to complaints should always be courteous, even if the complaint is unfounded(没有根据的); the sellers should not repudiate the claim until they have good and reliable grounds(means:support 根据) to do so.

           Suppose you are the seller, the following rules are to be noted when dealing with a complaint:

a) The first thing that has to be decided is whether the complaint is justified.

b) If the complaint is not justified, point this out politely and in an agreeable manner. It would be a wrong policy to refuse the claim offhand(means:rignt away,at once).

c) If you cannot deal with a complaint promptly, acknowledge it at once. Explain that you are looking into the matter and that you will send a full reply later.

d) All complaints should be treated as serious matters and thoroughly investigated.

            There is no need for the seller to tell a long story of how the mistake was made; and a short explanation may be useful.

哎, 好象我的帖子真的是越来越不受欢迎了哦! 今天来找帖子,又是沉了几个国度才找到的!

今天的例文是: Claims for Poor Packing

Dear sirs,

Claims for Poor Packing

We regret having to inform you that the Cotten Piece Goods covered by our Order No.6013 and shipped per s/s PEACE arrived in such an unsatisfactory condition that we cannot but lodge a claim against you. It was found upon examination that nearly 20% of the packages had been broken, obviously attributed to improper packing. Our only recourse, in consequence, was to have them repacked before delivering to our customers, which inevitably resulted in extra expenses amountin to C$650. We expect compensation from you for this, and should like to take this opportunity to suggest that special care be taken in your future deliveries as prospective customers are apt to misjudge the quality of your goods by the faulty packing.
