disagree pj-ffm : Sorry, "sampled offer" isn't English. Google "sampled offer" with quotes and the majority of hits are translations, not examples of the term being used in a phrase or sentence.

sample

or sample product.

It doesn't sound natural to me in English to add the word "offer"; I think what they're saying is that they don't just want to see a picture, or a list of prices etc, but want to see an example of the actual product itself.

In agreement with pj-ffm's comment, I think "representative sample" would probably be the best and least ambiguous option

agree pj-ffm : In the sense of "a representative sample from the product range". The "Angebot" part is implied with the pricing and condition information.
