For those of you who are complaining about the discounted price, must I remind everyone here that retail stores discount products? The Apple store discounts products? Real life stores produce discount coupons?

Even your iPod/iPhone/iPad you bought! Will you sue/scream at/abuse/ask Apple for refunds because they made the product slightly less expensive a couple of weeks after you bought it? This situation happens all the time!

If you want to complain, complain to retail stores because they practically invented the idea of discounts. What I find utterly ridiculous is that Backflip did not 'con' anyone into buying this products. You are placing a non existent retail value on virtual goods. Because Backflip decided to make a product a slightly more accessible to people who are potentially in a poorer economic situation than yourself, everyone throws a wank/drama llama fit on the internet. I have never seen so much ridiculous behaviour. This drama is matched only by how ridiculously everyone behaved when BFS initially made these goods so expensive people cried. How quickly the 'interwebz' forgets their initial complaints.

I have never been so ashamed. BFS has evidently made the products cheaper for an ungrateful bunch of hypocrites. Other companies would take advantage of you (like Team Lava) and raised the prices of the goods instead of discounting them.

I have never been so ashamed. BFS listened to your complaints. They listened to what you said, the feedback you gave.

But no.

Evidently, this is why we can't have nice things.

Thankyou. Because now Backflip knows to make things more expensive in the future, since evidently they will receive abuse either way.
