We are also sending you by separate post goods are both excellent in quality and reasonable in price. As to the modes of payment, we usually adopt confirmed and irrevocable letters of credit payable by draft at sight. However, in order to expand business, we will, as an exceptional case, accept payment for your trial order on D/P basis, provided the amount involved is less than US$ 10,000. In other words, we will draw on you by documentary draft at sight, through our bank, on collection basis. We hope the above payment terms will be acceptable to you and expect to receive your trial order in due course. We are looking forward to your early reply.Letter-2Dear Mr. Warner,Sub: Ref.
