Japanese translation

Can someone translate what this sign says for me? It was purchased in Taiwan, so I realize it may not make complete sense to begin with, but I'd like to have a general idea.

Many thanks!

    My japanese isn't the best so... but

    セールス Sales

    お断り To reject/decline

    [strike]Not sure on the meaning on the rest, but maybe the monkeys are a reference to ざる sounding like さる which can mean monkey?[/strike]

    Edit: nmind, I forgot conjugations and stuff. :)

    My Japanese also isn't that great, but I believe it says:

    On the top: "Sales declined"
    First monkey: See no evil
    Second monkey: Hear no evil
    Third monkey: Pay no evil (I'm guessing that's the joke, since it's supposed to be "speak no evil")
