    ‘Would like to have the car. Can you offer a six-month guarantee against mechanical breakdown?’

    What would the sentence above constitute:

    A. Counter-offer
    B.Request for more information

    Please provide an explanation of the chosen answer.

    Hi Divya,

    If it is phrased in the way you have written it then I would argue that “Can you offer a six month guarantee….” is a question rather than a counter offer.

    Had the sentence been “I will only buy the car if you give a six month guarantee…then that is more likely to be deemed a counter offer” because it is adding a new term.

    I hope this clarifies.

    Kind regards.

    Vijay
