For crying out loud! Any consumer who has to read all this would probably just let go of the guarantee altogether and say with me, “Forget it!” Reading all this alone, is tiring enough. What a pity! Only in the third world is there this kind of thing- A money back guarantee as a promotion! Money back guarantee should always come with any product to begin with. After all if one claims to be something, then it should deliver without question.
