This is just plain ridiculous. There was NO deception, and the price and non-functionality obvious and clearly stated. It's not like the phone buys the app without the user initiating the transaction. I *really* don't think Apple should get involved here. What if someone makes an app that only has mild use, and the buyer feels they overpaid? Can't they come whine to Apple for that too? It's a terrible precedent to set, and Apple just shouldn't be involved. Apps should have refund policies (which could include "none" - up to the developer), and Apple's job should be to make sure those policies and transactions are properly handled. As the saying goes, a fool and his money... I don't think we need to coddle the fools. - Jeremy Toeman from FriendFeed MT Plugin

The individuals who bought the app should be taken out behind the chemical sheds and shot - tehKenny

agree w/tehkenny - I'm retracting my previous comment. - Jeremy Toeman

Nothing should have been done. Sigh. If you bought the app because you thought apple was joking? You deserve to be $1k poorer. - felix

Isn't the real issue that Apple should have never approved the app? IE What exactly has the screening process been used for? I feel this is a valid question for all the apps that reach the 'black list' but especially this one. - Sean Ammirati from FriendFeed MT Plugin
