The new version on your site still doesn't sound quite right....

My suggestion:

We accept the(delete "the") Paypal (please add extra(delete) 3.5% for(delete) administration cost (delete) (Paypal fee)), Money Order, or Pay check.

We welcome the(delete "the") oversea customer(s). However, the listing price is only(delete) for Hong Kong buyer(s) (only). For the(delete "For the") oversea customer(s), we need to add the administration cost, shipment cost and insurance (delete whole sentence) (please email for the exact price). Please e-mail to me for the further advice. (delete whole sentence)

It becomes:
We accept the Paypal (please add extra 3.5% Paypal Fee), Money Order, or Pay check.

We welcome oversea customers. However, the listing price is for Hong Kong buyers only. Oversea customers please kindly email for the exact price.


I think it's cleaner and clearer.

Grammatically it is always "overseas"
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary 寫:Main Entry: 2over·seas
Pronunciation: \ˈō-vər-ˌsēz\
Function: adjective
Date: 1892
1 : of or relating to movement, transport, or communication over the sea <an overseas liner>
2 : situated, originating in, or relating to lands beyond the sea <overseas installations>
Most dictionaries do not carry "oversea" only "overseas".

Yes, should be overseas, not oversea. Sorry for the silly mistake, I missed that error. :oops:

" We welcome oversea customers. However, the listing price is for Hong Kong buyers only. Oversea customers please kindly email for the exact price."


The listed product pricing is dedicated to local gentlemans .
Oversea persons are welcomed and price negotiable .

gentleman的複數應該為gentlemen. 但係用gentlemen我覺得好似有少少格格不入.

呢句我會咁寫 "Prices as shown in this web are applcable to HK only. Overseas purchasing are also welcomed, please contact me for more information." 我覺得唔洗講太多關於海外購買要加乜費乜費, 因為正常人都知到網上訂外國貨要加運費etc... 越係長篇出錯機會就越多,所以一齊以精簡為妙.

最好女又老闆先做好一個不可多得的中文網頁, 才做一個語句通順的英文頁。

個人印象, 一句中一句英的網頁, 給人的感覺是不夠專業 :oops:

想了又想, 如果要再精簡d直情可以將"xxxx hk only"呢句刪去, 直截了當寫成"Overseas purchasing are also welcomed, please contact me for more information"就成. 因為web內的price已經show左係RMB/HKD, 正常人都會知係香港或大陸價
