商務(wù)人士英語必備：怎樣用英語報(bào)價(jià)

1. 文體介紹

報(bào)盤(offer)，也叫報(bào)價(jià)，是賣方主動(dòng)向買方提供商品信息，或者是對(duì)詢盤的答復(fù)，是賣方根據(jù)賣方的來信，向買方報(bào)盤，其內(nèi)容可包括商品名稱、規(guī)格、數(shù)量、包裝條件、價(jià)格、付款方式和交貨期限等。報(bào)盤有兩種：

虛盤(non-firm offers), 即無約束力的報(bào)盤。一般情況下，多數(shù)報(bào)盤均為虛盤，虛盤不規(guī)定報(bào)盤的有效日期，并且附有保留條件，如：The offer is subject to our final confirmation/prior sale. 該報(bào)盤已我方最后確認(rèn)為準(zhǔn)/是否事先售出為準(zhǔn)。

實(shí)盤(firm offers)則規(guī)定有效日期，而且賣盤一旦被接受，報(bào)盤人就不能撤回。

2.實(shí)用范例
