He thinks I am stupid.
In Mandarin, we have a saying: "speaking like the blind with his eyes wide open." In rough terms, it basically means "lying through your teeth".
This happened at Sim Lim Square.

Me: So.. why is this hard disk so much cheaper than the other 2? (it had an older looking packaging than the other 2 brands)
Salesperson: Oh. Because when a new product is released, they usually give you a cheap price for it. Then after that when it's not so new, they jack up the price. So this is a new product, newer than the other 2. So cheaper.
Me: Oh. When the product is newer, it's cheaper? So this is cheaper cos it's newer..
Salesperson: Yeap.
