  13. Decline PO • 1. Out of stock (give alternative) • 2. Customers with bad reputation: • We would only be prepared to supply on a cash basis. • As there are too many orders we have received before, it seems unlikely that we could deliver within next semester. • I am sorry to say that we must turn down your order as we have full order books at present and cannot give a definite date for delivery.

  14. Terms are not appropriate, including discount, amount of quantity, payment, and delivery. • Discount: • It would be very uneconomical for us to offer our product at 30% trade discount as we work on a low profit margin. • The usual cash discount is 5% which is lower than the figure you mentioned. • The discount you ask, for us is far more than we offer any of our customers.

We never sell individual garments.
