关于我方2000年8月8日第7904号销售确认书，我们很遗憾地告知你方信用证在写信时还没到。（2）这给我们带来很大的麻烦，因为我们已按上述所说的销售确认书的规定做好了装运的准备。（2）
你必须知道，一旦合同签署，合同的条款和条件就必须遵守，不遵守就意味着违约。（2）如果你查阅我方的销售确认书，你就可以看到这样的条款：（2）
“买方应在2000年8月30日前开出有关的信用证，每能做到的话，卖方保留撤消合同而不另行通知的权利。”（3）
你方所订的货物已备妥多时了，最近需求如此旺盛以至于我们难把货物留太久。（2）然而，考虑到我们之间友好的业务关系，我们还是打算等你们的信用证。该证必须在2000年10月5日以前到。（3）如我们没能及时收到你们的信用证，我们将取消销售确认书，并请你们退回我们代付的仓储费。（3）
非常感谢你们在这一方面的合作。（1）
在过去的五年中我方一直将贵方的电子打火机卖给巴基斯坦各地的批发商及各大商号。（2）我方的客户对贵方的很满意，因为产品的款式和颜色很适合我们的市场。（2）目前我们已建立起很多牢固的业务关系，并有极好的商务业绩。（2）
我们知道贵方在巴基斯坦没有代理商，所以我们想自荐担任贵方在该地的代理。（2） 我们建议订立独家代理协议，期限为3年。第一、第二、第三年的年销量分别为5万、6万和7万只。（2）此建议供贵方参考。（1）对成交了的业务，我们享有15%的佣金。（2）在协议有效期内，我方将不经营其他国家的同类产品或其他具有竞争性的产品。（2）代理协议所喊的区域只限于巴基斯坦。（2）
如贵方同意委托我方为独家代理，我们将不遗余力开拓贵房产品在巴基斯坦市场上的销路，并对此事做深入研究。（2）

贵方10月31日关于独家代理事宜的来函收悉，谢谢。（3）
我们赞赏贵方在巴基斯坦的推销我方产品而作的努力，并对贵方过去的业绩表示满意。
（3）但经郑重考虑之后，我们认为现阶段委托贵方为代理的条件尚不成熟，原因是贵方函中所述的销售量太小，我们不能授予贵方代理权。（3）坦率地告诉你们，过去几年中，我们平均每年销售到贵国的货物数量大大超过你们函中所说的数量。（3）
虽然这样，请不要误解我们上面所说的，我们的话绝没有暗示有不满意。（3）假如贵方能够达到更大数量的销售额以证明有能力担任我方代理，则我们会十分愿意将代理权授予贵方。（3）
我们希望贵方会同意这点，并像以前一样向我们订货。（2）
