Shopping in China (post from dad)

Shopping in China !

A man went on a business trip to China and wanted to buy some gifts for his
kids. He went to a shop and found a nice looking CD player. Wary of buying
inferior goods, he asked the shopkeeper, 'What would happen if this does
not work?'

The shopkeeper quietly points to the only sign in English that reads,
'GUARANTEE NO SPOILT'.

Feeling assured, he paid for the CD player and returns to his hotel. He
tried to use the CD player after returning to the hotel but it would not
even switch on.

He quickly return to the shop and asked for a refund or an exchange for
another unit. When the shopkeeper refuse to give either, the man points to
the sign assuring him of a guarantee.

The shopkeeper then said, 'Brother, you are in China . We read from the
Right to the Left.'
