    Default Sorry, no quotes are available...?

    Hello,

    I'm in the process of translating (as a volunteer) an open-source ecommerce software from English to Spanish-Mexico. Although I found expressions like these:

    "Sorry, no quotes are available for this order at this time.", I tried "Lo sentimos, no hay disponibilidad para este pedido en este momento."

    How does quotes be treated? (wrong grammar)
    Quote Originally Posted by mariaklec

    Also:

    "Switch/Solo card issue number: ", I tried "Switch/Solo el número de código de seguridad de tarjeta: "

    How does Switch/Solo be treated? (wrong grammar)

    Hope this is the right place to ask.

    Cheers

    I would translated as: Lo sentimos (Disculpe) por el momento no hay cotizaciones disponibles para esta orden

    Hope it helps

    Hi pal -- I am still trying to figure out what Switch/Solo refers to; but I need a little more detail for that. However your idea (to leave it untranslated ) sounds like a reasonable choice

    Kind regards !!

    It's for filling data in a form for PayPal's services, they also have expressions like:

    "Switch/Solo card issue number: "
    "Switch/Solo card start Date: "
    "Switch/Solo Only"

    Well the last one sounds quite redundant in Spanish "Switch/Solo Solo"

    Veo que este hilo es un poco viejo ya... pero vale la pena la aclaración, ya que quedó inconcluso.

    Swith y Solo son tarjetas de debito. Switch se llama ahora simplemente Maestro o Switch/Maestro. La otra se llama Tarjeta Solo y se la considera una hermana de la tarjeta Maestro.

    Hola mem, muchas gracias por tu respuesta. Como decimos por acá, más vale tarde que nunca , además gracias por recordarme este hilo, la verdad es que lo deje sin traducir y ya hasta lo había olvidado. Pero gracias a tu explicación ahora se a lo que se refiere. En México hasta donde sé, todavía no tenemos una tarjeta de débito con estos servicios donde se puedan hacer compras por internet. Pero en Argentina y en Venezuela sí la tienen (arrrg, estan más adelantados que nosotros). Sí, tal vez lo tradusca como Tarjeta de débito Maestro/Solo.

    No cabe duda que con Ustedes aprendo muchísimo.

    Saludos y un abrazo desde México.
