　Hi Water,

　Thanks for your kind reception at your booth!

　First of all, you confirmed me the L/C before I confirmed it to the bank and the time after the order was right!

　Second, I’m arranging your shipment with another supplier in the same container. So if you are late also the other goods will be late!

　Third, I need to receive these goods ASAP since I have to arrange it for Christmas promotions and there isn’t so much time!

　Fourth, if the supplier delay the shipment after the requested date, you will pay the 0.004% of the total amount for each delayed day for the damage you cause to us!

　So, I ask kindly to proceed in time with the shipment and release the goods to UPS within this week!

　Please, Water, this is our first business, don’t start with delay and consequently cause our customers to cancel the orders to us!

　I hope you understand.

　Rgds

　Ms. Paola Esposito

　Notes

　1. 对于供应商延迟交货，客户总是不允许的，因为准时交货对客户来说尤其重要。有一些客户是中间商，收到货物之后，他必须再把这些货物分批送给不同的分销商。所以他们比较看重准时交货。

　2. 延期交货，客户明确说明不接受，如果延期将有罚金。这是一个难题，但必须面对。
