商贸英语|如何写平时订货信

订货（order）是买方为需要卖方提供具体数目的货物而提出的一种需要。此时，买卖双方之间的陌生感已消除，可以说已经度过了接触障碍和难关。
写定货信时应注意以下几个方面：

（1）开头就直接说明订购的意图。常见的句式有 Please ship..., Please send..., We would like to order..., We would like to purchase..., 等等，明确说明你要购买。

（2）订货信应包含你要购买的产品的详情， 包含产品的名字、品质、数目、包装、价格条件、支付条件、装运方法与需要他们提供的单据等。

（3）内容需要准确、了解。不论是产品的价格还是产品的规格都应做到准确无误，不然会带来非必须的损失与麻烦。

下面是一篇平时订货信的例文，请大伙领会一下。
