Definition
三包 is a Chinese consumer protection policy that requires sellers to provide three guarantees for certain products: repair (包修), replacement (包换), and compensation (包退) if the product is defective. It's a legal term you'll see on receipts, warranties, and store policies — especially for electronics, appliances, and vehicles. The word is used as a noun referring to the policy itself, not as a verb.
n.
three guarantees (consumer policy covering repair, replacement, and compensation for faulty products)
