Thank you for your letter of October 10 for business copiers. We are now sending you our price-list and catalog of the newest types that are under production and we can supply at once from stock.
We want to notice you that prices of copier parts and components1 have gone up steadily2 since the second half of the year. Though we have tried hard to keep our quotations3 down, we are afraid the margin4 for keeping on going like this will not long. Therefore, we suggest that you will let us have your order before further rises in cosplayts, which will lead to a raise in prices very soon unavoidably.
感谢贵方十月十日关于商用复印机的询函。现随函奉送本公司正在生产的、并有现货提供的最新型号的商品清单和价目表。
我方想告诉贵方，自下半年以来，复印机的零、部件价格一直不断增长。尽管我方尽可能压低价格，但恐怕有此空间的时间不会太久。因此，建议贵方在零、部件第三涨价，并不可防止地引起成品涨价之前便向我方订货。
