Chapter 10

Increase the Quantity 增加數(shù)量

Dialog

Another bargaining chip could be increasing the quality.Buying in volume often gets the buyer a significant savings.The following dialog discusses that possibility.

另個(gè)一個(gè)可用來議價(jià)的籌碼是增加數(shù)量.購(gòu)買的數(shù)量巨大,常為買方省下許多錢.下面的對(duì)話討論到這個(gè)可能性.

Mel:I'm sorry,but that's my best price.

抱歉,但這是我可以提供的最好的價(jià)格.

Bill:Isn't there any way you could sharpen your pencil and get the figure down a bit more?

你難道沒有辦法再精打細(xì)算,多降價(jià)一點(diǎn)?

Mel:Well,normally we sell these things for five to ten pencent less,but your volume is so small I can't do that.

通常我們會(huì)降個(gè)百分之五到百分之十,但你買的數(shù)量太少,我沒辦法這么做.

Bill:Oh!Okay,I can fix that.

喔,好,這點(diǎn)我可以解決.

How about if I promise to order another batch just this one every quarter?We'll use them.

如果我們每季都跟你們下同樣數(shù)量的訂單呢?我們以后的確需要.

Mel:That won't help.We can give the discount if we don't have to retool and set up so often.That's where we save money and we pass that on to you.

沒什么用.若可以省掉重新設(shè)置、安裝的功夫，就能降價(jià)。我們通常都是透過這些步驟，來省錢回饋給客戶群。

If you double your order,we can give you a 5% discount,and if you double that to four times your order,I can give you a 10% discount.

如果你將訂單數(shù)量加倍，我們就可以提供百分這五的折扣，如果你將數(shù)量增加到四倍，就可以有百分之十的折扣。

Bill:I don't understand.

我不懂。

Mel:We sell a lot of these things but not enough to keep a production line going full time.

我們雖然銷量很大，但卻還沒有到可以全天候開機(jī)生產(chǎn)的地步。

We have to set up our shop to make these things and that takes about a day to set up and another half day to tear down when we finish.

這些產(chǎn)品在工廠生產(chǎn)時(shí)，光裝置就要花一天，在生產(chǎn)完畢后，又要花半天時(shí)間拆除。

By saving me three set up days and 1.5 tear down days,that's the salary of three men four and a half days.

如果你的數(shù)量多的話，你可以幫我節(jié)省三天安裝、一天半拆裝的時(shí)間，這相當(dāng)于三個(gè)工人工作四天半的工資。

I'm willing to let you save that money.

如果是這樣，我會(huì)很樂意幫你省錢。

Bill:I'd love to but I got no place to put them.

我也想，可是我沒地方存貨。

Mel:If storage is your only worry,I can help you there.

如果庫(kù)存是你唯一的顧慮，我可以幫你。

Bill:How?

怎么幫?

Mel:If you sign a contract for a year's supply,I'll make them all in one run.

如果你簽署合約，購(gòu)買一年的供應(yīng)量，我會(huì)一次把它們生產(chǎn)好。

And you qulify for the discount.But ,you have to pay me in full for the whole run as soon as you take delivery of the first of four shipments.

你也可以得到折扣。但你必須在收到第一季的貨后，盡快把全額貨款付清，總共會(huì)有四次出貨。

I can store the rest for you for nine months for free.How does that grab you?

我可以免費(fèi)幫你保管商品九個(gè)月，這條件你覺得怎么樣?

Bill:You have a deal.Not only do I get the discount, but today's price is locked in for a year.I can't lose.

成交。我不只有了折扣，這一年的價(jià)格也會(huì)再漲，我一點(diǎn)都不吃虧。

Mel:I'll have the contract ready for your singature tomorrow.

我明天會(huì)準(zhǔn)備合約，給你簽名。

Bill:Great.

太好了。
