It's often enough that some english wordplay doesn't work in the german version for obvious reasons.. sometimes the studio tries to translate it (and fails to grasp the humor) and sometimes they come up with a fitting german substitute..

They did fuck up the scene where Django finds Shultz' body in the staples. Instead of saying "Auf Wiedersehen", he simply says "Danke" (Thank you).

The biggest question I have to which there probably has no answer is this:

Were Shultz and crew ever going to leave the plantation alive even if he shook Candies hand?

Yes. Tarantino actually commented on this in an article on the HuffingtonPost, but Candie wasn't utterly unreasonable and would have sold her to them at far less than what Schultz eventually paid out to him.

^So of all the translations they mess up, it's one from the German?!

^Yeah. I guess they didn't quite grasp the importance of that phrase, even though Schultz had explained it's actual meaning earlier.
It's probably because we use it all the time these days. Even to people we don't expect or want to see again.
Schultz is a little bit guilty of that too as he said it to the Klansmen before blowing them up.
