I. Offer and Quotation
An offer is a promise to supply or buy goods on the terms and conditions stated. In an offer, the offeror not only quotes the price of the goods they wish to sell or to buy but also indicates all necessary terms of transactions for the offeree’s consideration and acceptance.
A quotation is not an “offer” in the legal sense. A quotation is merely a notice of the price of certain goods at which the sellers are willing to sell. It is not legally binding as a firm offer if the sellers later decide not to sell. The price is subject to change without previous notice.

II. Firm Offer and Non-firm Offer
A firm offer is a promise to sell at a stated price and condition within a stated period of time (a certain time limit). It usually contains such expressions as “for acceptance within ... days”, “be valid before ... ”, etc. Once it has been accepted it cannot be withdrawn.
A non-firm offer is an offer made without engagement. It is subject to confirmation by the seller. It usually contains the words “subject to our final confirmation”, or similar qualifying words.
III. The Contents of an Offer
A satisfactory offer usually includes the following:
the name of commodities, quality, quantity, packing and specifications;
details of prices, discounts and terms of payment;
date of delivery, the period for which the offer is valid.
