購物英語口語一本通(MP3+中英字幕) Unit56:退款與更換

Unit 56 Returns and exchanges第56課 退款與更換Most stores in America have return and exchange , for instance, you buy a shirt and find out when you try it on that it's too smAll, you can take it back to the store and exchange it for a larger size. At many stores it is also possible to return items for a refund, though there is usually a time limit. Also, not all items can be returned. Books, swimsuits and CDs ( if they' ve been opened), for example, cannot be returned. When you make a purchase, it's always a good idea to find out the store's return and exchange policy.

美國大部分的商店都有退款和更換的規定。舉例來說，如果你買了一件襯衫，試穿時卻發現太小了，就可以把它拿回店裏換尺寸大一點的。很多商店也允許退還商品並退錢，不過這有時間限制。並非所有的物品都可被退還，例如：書、泳衣和CD (假如它們已經被打開了)就不能被退還。當你在買東西時，通常的好點子就是弄清楚商店退貨或退款的規定。
