商務(wù)英語email高手 如何詢盤
1. 文體介紹
在對外貿(mào)易中，詢盤，也叫詢價(jià)(inquiry或enquiry)是買方或買方對于所要購買或出售的商品向另一方作出的詢問。詢盤是交易的起點(diǎn)，可以分為：
普通詢盤(a general inquiry):索取普通資料， 諸如：目錄(a catalogue)、價(jià)目表或報(bào)價(jià)單(a price-list orquotation sheets)、樣品(a sample)、圖片(illustrated photo prints)等。
具體詢盤(a specific inquiry): 具體詢問商品名稱(thename of the commodity)、規(guī)格(thespecifications)、數(shù)量(the quantity)、單價(jià)(the unit price FOB… CIF…),裝船期(the time ofshipment)、付款方式(the terms of payment)等。
詢盤一般多為買方向賣方發(fā)出，買方通過詢盤信，簡明扼要的向賣方了解一般的商品信息。利用E-mail 寫詢盤信，無須寫的過分客氣，只需具體、簡潔、措詞得體。有的詢盤信開門見山，直截了當(dāng)說明訂購打算，希望對方給予一定優(yōu)惠條件;有的詢盤信則以征詢信息的方式，不許下訂貨諾言，以避免結(jié)果未訂購可能形成的日后交易中的障礙 。
