Buying juvenile eels: what to prepare before requesting a quotation

Start with the requirements behind the price

A price needs a product description and delivery conditions to be useful. When enquiring about juvenile eels, describe your farming plans, intended timing and the details you have already settled. Mark anything still undecided for discussion.

Do not choose a grade simply to complete a form. If you have not determined the required size, describe your needs and ask for clarification before confirming the product.

Four groups of information to include

Use this checklist when submitting a form or speaking directly with YOLO.

• The product and preferred grade, including any questions you need help clarifying.
• The expected quantity and its unit, or an estimated range.
• The province or receiving point and your preferred dates.
• Your contact name, contact method and the receiving contact if different.

Read the quotation together with its conditions

Check the grade, unit, included charges, validity period and payment terms when you receive a response. Compare quotations only when these details cover the same scope.

Ask about actual batch photographs, origin, packaging and receiving checks. Resolve open points in the order confirmation, rather than inferring them from illustrative imagery or general website descriptions.

Submit the enquiry and confirm the next step

Keep your enquiry reference and the details discussed. Update the quantity or timing before confirmation if your plans change. A website enquiry is not an order and does not confirm a delivery schedule.
