P: I’m very glad that we have settled the problem of price and quantity. Now let’s discuss the mode of payment.
Z: You know very well that we only accept confirmed, irrevocable L/C payable against draft at sight.
P: Could you make an exception and accept D/A or D/P this time?
Z: I’m afraid not.
P: You know it’s very troublesome to open a letter of credit. Besides, I have to pay a deposit when I open an L/C. It’ll tie up
our money and add to the cost of my imports.
Z: But it’s the rule of the company. I can do nothing about it. P: It seems I have no alternative but to agree to use an L/C. Then when shall I open the L/C?
Z: Your L/C should reach us a month before the time you want the goods to be delivered.
P: I’m afraid that’ll tie up our money in the bank for too long. Could you effect shipment within 15 days after receipt of our L/C?
Z: Generally speaking, that won’t do. Because it takes time to
get the goods ready and book the shipping space. But to help get round your difficulty, I promise to effect shipment within 20 days after receipt of your L/C. Is that OK?

P: OK. I’ll arrange for the L/C to be opened in your favour as soon as I get home.
Z: When will that be?
P: Early next month. Another thing, I’d like to put down in the
contract that the L/C shall remain valid until the fifteenth day after shipment. You know, sometimes it takes us a week for so to get all the shipping documents ready for presentation and negotiation.
Z: No problem. That can be done.
P: I’m glad that we have reached an agreement on the method of payment, but I still hope you’ll be more flexible in doing
business next time.
Z: Perhaps after more business between us in the future, we could consider using some other terms of payment. Shall we take our minds off business now and have a cup of coffee? P: Yes, it’s time we relaxed ourselves.
