Comma
Hi, please help me.
"We appreciate your asking us, but we are unable to offer you a quotation because we have withdrawn from this market."
"We appreciate your asking us, but we are unable to offer you a quotation, because we have withdrawn from this market."
Which is correct? I'm not sure whether or not I should put a comma between "quotation" and "because".
"We appreciate your asking us, but we are unable to offer you a quotation because we have withdrawn from this market."
"We appreciate your asking us, but we are unable to offer you a quotation, because we have withdrawn from this market."
Which is correct? I'm not sure whether or not I should put a comma between "quotation" and "because".

Hello Tashiro, I'd leave out the second comma. Hope this helps. John
