BUSINESS TALKS
In the course of making enquiries and offers, the parties very often meet to
agree upon one or another question.
Here is a specimen business talk:
SELLER: Well, let’s get started. You now, with this delivery problem
I’m sure there’s room for negotiation.
BUYER: Oh, yes, we stressed in our enquiry that we needed the machine ur-
gently. A speedy delivery is of vital importance for us.
SELLER: Well, this is how we see it. We can deliver the machine in ten
weeks and install it four weeks after that.
BUYER: Oh, I am afraid these periods are too long. We cannot agree with
you.
