Dear Miss Wu,
Thank you for your offer of 2nd June. We find all the terms and conditions acceptable except payment. You require payment by confirmed, irrevocable L/C payable against sight draft.
As you know, when applying for the issuance of L/C, we have to put a deposit in the bank. This will tie up our funds for over 3 months. Besides, the banking charges are particularly high under current tight monetary policy. It really costs us too much on L/C basis.

Your careful consideration of the above will be highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Abe Brook
