Counter-offer（还盘）
Dear Sirs,
Thank you for your letter of May 20 quoting for the rice and soybeans.
We appreciate the good quality of your products,but unfortunately your prices appear to be on the high side even for goods of this quality.To accept the prices you quote would leave us with only a small profit on our sales since this is an area in which the principal demand is for articles in the medium price range.
