They're usually the same, but a warranty is almost always a formal, legally drawn document. A guarantee may be this also, but "guarantee"is also used more loosely. In advertisements in the newspaper or on radio and television, the owner of a business, or his spokesman, frequently offer(s) guarantees which are totally worthless.

And why a good salesman could be very convincing by providing ruarantee, if people knows that word is worthless? They must have to get warranty.

guarantee means the stuff which is purchased can also be replaced by new one if something wrong goes with the stuff.
whereas in the warranty,replacement provision is not there for the stuff ,they just provide the service and replacement of some parts of the stuff only.
