Billy Frontier - The App you can’t buy? - Updated

Picture 1.png

First time I’ve ever seen this one. Went to go buy this newish game from Pangea and for some reason I can’t buy it. Anyone else seen this?

UPDATE: So here’s what looks like might be happening. If you “search” for Billy Frontier, you’ll see the price shows as $5.99. BUT, if you look at the application page it still shows the price as $2.99 - so its possible that the page’s buy link isn’t working because it links to the lower priced version and they’re in the process of upping the price. See below:

And of course by clicking the buy button on the main page it did actually purcahase it, but I was charged $5.99 instead of the posted $2.99 on the application’s page. ARG!

UPDATE: I sent an email to Apple about being charged $5.99 for the app when the page said $2.99. Not because I was overly concerned about the money - but because I wanted to see how they would justify charging me $5.99 when the page said $2.99. Well after 3 days and a lot of not understanding a single thing I was trying to say - Apple gave me ALL of my money back. Not $3 like they should have - but every penny. So, I’ll be buying it again… this time knowing its going to cost me $5.99.

    That error happens when trying to download the latest tv episodes just as they are released as well. For some reason, the listing appears first and then after up to 24 hours they become valid links.

    And that makes sense… this time though the app has been out for days and has multiple reviews from people who have actually downloaded it. But who knows… maybe they just really don’t want me to have it because it has cartoon violence and blood :)
