LjWAH s-L9o Offer is a most important step in negotiating an export transaction. It is a proposal of terms and conditionssn!r WxL.nq"`
presented in a potential contract by one party, called the offeror, to another party, called the offeree.
&Rr l+n[e7D\ The offer made by the seller is customerily called "selling offer", while the offer made by the buyer is commonly
%P{(x]+iW r*Zp/^ called "buying offer"-g]'pn t.V
OB%i7@Y7H3mv([^
There is two kinds of offer. One is firm offer or offer with engagement. A satisfactory offer should be clear,
oy B!nRG+{,ow complete and final in its wording. It should include the name of the goods, quality and specifications, quantity,}3[ap#Cd3\]
detail of price, packing conditions, time of shipment and delivery, terms of payment. A firm offer mostly provides
{0p `$t Fi LP e{b!` a period of validity. It remains valid until the validity ends. The acceptance made by the offeree before validity expires.p~pEed
is effective legally.
P.T!x.\gJ-iG&s r .kK1G/U;vfT
Another kind is non-frim offer or offer without engagement which is unclear, incomplete and with reservations. It is not
4Nh,E`]F binding on the offeror. Such as "reference price", "subject to our final confirmation" and " subject to goods being unsold"
8D!Ah4yQy0g sUsm are offen used.

A counter-offer, in fact, is a rejection of the offer. If a buyer doesn't agree with any or some the transaction terms of
/Wc5Ws i@t/m a quotation or a frim offer, he makes a counter-offer. In a counter-offer, a new price as well as other new terms is suggested.*Y)ksClc6?;} ]2sf
Hence, it is a new offer, at the same time, the original offer lapes, no matter how slight the alterations might be. The original
D*g$G%jrw offer now becomes the offeree and he has the right of acceptance and refusal. So, he may make another counter-offer of his/{%`;^VE)K#KVE
own. This process can go on for many rounds till business is finalized.
