买家自白:我就要这样的报价单!
在同一行业里,大家的报价几乎相差不大,但是有的人拿到了订单,有的人价格虽然更低,却与订单失之交臂。也许你觉得自己的报价单还不错,但是买家真的这样想吗?下面就让瀚而普-外贸代理的小编带你看一下,一位国外买家对报价单提出的 6 点要求。1As a sourcing agent and buyer I can tell you what a good quotation is for me: it includes all relevant information! My job is to find a reliable supplier at a reasonable price in the shortest time possible.
作为采购代理和买家,对我来说,一个好的报价就是包含所有相关信息!一份好的报价可以使我在最短的时间内,在合理的价格范围内找到一个可靠的供应商。
2It is very possible that I will choose a supplier whose price is a few percent higher but the quotation is complete. That means, it includes: FOB price (!!!) with seaport marked! (I often get FOB quotes without location. Obviously for me in Europe a FOB Shanghai price is higher than a FOB Xiamen price, since shipping rates are different).
我倾向于会选择这样一个供应商:他的价格比同行高出几个百分点,但报价单的内容很完整,包括:离岸价(重中之重)、装运港(我经常性收到没有装运地的 FOB 报价单。对于欧洲买家来说,FOB 上海的价格远高于 FOB 厦门的价格,因为海运费用是不同的)。
3Delivery time (so far no Chinese supplier was able to keep the promised delivery time for my projects - 90% delay, 10% early)
保证到货时间(到目前为止,没有一家中国供应商能够准时到货: 90% 的订单延迟,10% 提前)。
4Package unit (carton details)!!! Carton weight, size, volume, content, material. It is very important!!! Usually this point is simply left out by suppliers. But I and most full-time buyers have just simply no time to beg for any details separately!!! If a quotation misses this, I simply delete it. I have no time to ask for these points, but I can only calculate my shipping cost with this info!
包装信息(纸箱详细资料),包括纸箱重量,尺寸,体积/容量,填充物、材质。这非常重要!通常供应商会遗漏这一点。其他买家跟我一样,都没有时间一一去确认这些细节问题!如果报价单中没有提及这些细节问题,我几乎都是直接删掉的,因为我根本没有那么多时间单独再向供应商核实这些细节。我需要根据这些信息来计算我的海运成本,你不提供,我也不要,我只看那些提供装箱数据的报价单。
5Payment conditions must be exactly discussed.
付款条件必须是经过讨论达成一致的。
6I hope suppliers will consider these points in the future. If you include all relevant information, you can really help your partner in his/her decision. And for the supplier, it is a job done once, you needn’t work out each detail separately.
我希望供应商将来会考虑这些问题。如果你的报价单包含了所有的相关信息,那么你才能真正帮助你的合作伙伴做出决定。而对于供应商来说,如果你真正做完了一份完整的报价单,你就不需要再单独提供细节了,因为报价单里早已包含了买家想知道的所有细节。
