Part Four: Monologue
Manufacturers and stores in America will often take back things you buy if they don’t work properly. You usually need your receipt to take advantage of these offers. The store policies are usually better than the manufacturers. The will often give you your money back if you decide you don’t like what you bought. American law requires that their return policies have to be posted in writing near the cash registers. Manufacturer’s warranties normally only cover problems that were built-in to their merchandise. Both the stores and manufactures offer to take back merchandise to make people feel comfortable about buying it. This is especially true of expensive items, such as electronics and cars.
在美國，如果顧客購買的商品不能正常運轉的話，生產廠家和商店通常會接收退貨。要獲得這項優惠必須有收據爲證。商店提供的政策通常比廠家的更優惠。如果你確實不滿意自己購買的物品，商店通常會將你的錢退回。美國法律規定商店必須把退貨條款書寫在收銀臺的旁邊。生產廠家的質量保證通常只涵蓋其產品自身帶來的問題。爲了使顧客對其購買的商品滿意，生產廠家和商店雙方都會接收顧客退貨。對於價格較貴的貨品如電器和小汽車來說，這種情況尤爲如此。
