Salesperson 1: Really? Let me have a look.
Shirley: Poor quality!

Shirley: Oh, sorry.
Benjamin: What if it doesn't work well, I mean in case?
Salesperson: The guarantee provides for free service and parts. But judging from my experience, I'd say you'll never have to use that.
Benjamin: How long is it guaranteed for?
Salesperson: Three years. And you can exchange it provided 2 there is no damage to the product.
Benjamin: What about the price?
Salesperson: 1000 yuan.
Benjamin: Wow. That's a lot of money. Is there any discount?
