'Guarantee No Spoiled'

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 happens if this doesn’t work?’

The shopkeeper quietly points to the only sign in English that reads, ‘GUARANTEE NO SPOILED’.

Feeling assured, he paid for the CD player and returns to his hotel.
He tried to use the CD player, but it wouldn’t even switch on. He quickly returned to the shop and asked for a refund or an exchange for another unit. When the shopkeeper refuses to give either, the man points to the sign assuring him of the guarantee.

The shopkeeper then said, ‘Brother, you are in China. We read from the right to the left.'
