Insurance Coverage
Helen: I'm calling to discuss the insurance coverage for your goods.
Mike: I believe that we have requested an amount twenty-five percent above the invoice value.
Helen: Yes, that's right. We have no problem about your request, but we think that the amount is a bit excessive. We had a lot of troubles in the past with damaged goods or shortage of the goods.
Mike: I can understand your concern. However, the normal coverage for this type goods is to insure them for the total invoice amount plus ten percent.
Helen: We would feel more satisfied with the additional protection.
Mike: Unfortunately, if you want to increase the coverage, we will have to charge you extra premium for the additional cost.
Helen: But the insurance should be included in the quotation.
Mike: Yes, but we quoted you normal coverage at regular rates.
Helen: I see.
