Cultural Tip
In French business culture, it is courteous to ask about the final offer politely and to thank the interlocutor, even if you decide not to accept. Using "C'est la dernière offre ?" is perfectly acceptable in casual settings, but in formal negotiations you might prefer the more structured "Est‑ce la dernière offre ?" or add a courtesy phrase such as "Je vous remercie de votre proposition."
