Still 10 bucks on AppWorld.

ya says 4.99 but confirmation says 9.99

I'm having the same problem,
It's says MEX $50.00 but when I try to pay, confirmation shows the full price of MEX $100.00
Please fix that, I really want to buy this app

I still think a 7 days trial is a good idea for this app... If itreally is as good as devs want to to believe, people will end up paying the $9.99... But I don't like "blind-shopping"...

That's much more like it. Still not sure I use LinkedIn enough to actually pay for an app (especially if it is integrated to 2.0 as expected), but I'll consider it.

App World does not allow an immediate price change by developers. They will post the new price, but at checkout it shows up for the previous price for 24 hours after the developer changes their price. The good thing is when they change it back to 9.99 at the end of the weekend, the price at checkout will still be 4.99 for 24 hours after that. A stupid rule making it hard for developers to have short sales, bit what's new with RIM these days?

I'm an avid linkedin user and paid the $9.99 yesterday. It is a beautiful program that I can't figure out how to put to use. Some interesting data and probably worth the $4.99. I need a tutorial to see if I can "do" anything w/ this before deciding if my $9.99 was well spent.

$4.99 - I may buy, looks really good.

if i remember to try again tomorrow for the $4.99 price I'll pick it up. Tried 2x so far today but cancelled when it rang up at $9.99

RIM really needs to figure that system out so sales happen as advertised and intended. This will cost the dev sales if this issue isn't resolved by the time I look it up again over the weekend.

just last night I searched for linkedin on my PB and came across this app, but noway gonna spend $10. $5 is still really pushing it for me. I have a hard time going over $1.99
Agree with others, needs a 7 day trial.

I bought it on accident at the $9.99 price (multitasking and didn't pay attention to the confirmation screen). I emailed the developer so hopefully I'll get my $5 and change refund.

Ps. The app is pretty cool...although the card screen is very laggy. Hopefully the dev works on making this screen more snappier.

Tried to purchase this in app world. The price says $4.99 but when the confirmation comes up it says $9.99.

ditto....

We apologize for this mishap but unfortuntely this is completely out of our control and unintentional. We have got plenty of mails from users about this issue and we have already emailed RIM about the issue and trying to work a solution out for this. We will be extending the sale by a day. Please don't purchase it at $9.99 until the real price change gets reflected.

For those of you who have already purchased it at $9.99 yesterday, please email RIM/DigitalRiver support and ask them for a resolution. This should also help us get a speedy resolution to this issue and not end up disappointing the users who by mistake paid $9.99 instead of the sale price of $4.99.

We never thought reducing the price in favor of our users is going to backfire on us but so is the app business :(

This kind of app should really have a free trial. When will developers understand that users don't like shooting their money into the dark? There are so many apps that will not get a closer look for this reason ...

Further is this app PBOS 2.0 capable?

I agree that a 7-day trial would be nice, but would everyone please stop bashing the developers, especially the developer of this app.

It seems XLabz is behaving exactly the way I would like all developers to act. When I first saw the review, I thought the app was wonderful, but knew I did not use LinkedIn enough to warrant a $10 app. Many left that feedback. The developer listened and lowered the price but ran into some troubles getting RIM to process the transaction with the lower price. That is not the fault of XLabz. However, XLabz stepped up to the plate to fix it, says it is working with RIM to resolve the issue, and has extended the sale. Really, what more to do you want the developer.

Now, in party because the developer has been so oustanding, I will purchase the app as soon as the sale price is recognized by RIM. I am not sure it is worth $5 considering my low use of LinkedIn, but I am going to give it a try because I want to support developers like XLabz. Perhaps it will even increase my use of LinkedIn.

Now, a recommendation to XLabz. I would pay $10 for this app, no questions asked, if it could do for the contacts on my Blackberry what it does for my connections on LinkedIn. That would be incredible.

Still coming up as $9.99 when I just tried purchasing it. Sad that it may cost the developer sales.

Hopefully they will extend the sale until Monday.

The price has been corrected now, at least for me when I go in to purchase it.

@BerryAttorney Thanks for your support and understanding. Though one of the email we got from a user was rather harsh and went on to say that we were cheating, we don't really consider this as bashing and the frustration of users are valid considering that they don't know how AppWorld works and that this is not really because of us.

As far as doing the same for your BlackBerry contacts go, if you can please mail us your detailed feature request to support@xlabz.com, we will evaluate the possibility of doing so and get back to you.

@thecsman We are indeed extending the sale by two more days to compensate for this.

@Everyone From what SuperGenius says, it looks like the price change could have propagated. Can a few of you please confirm this? We have 100's of users who we would need to get back to when the price change has reflected.

The price has been updated! I just bought a copy. The user interface is beautifully crafted. Let's hope the new Adobe Flash AIR in the OS upgrade makes it smoother.

@XLabz great job guys, your app has the professional look of publications like The Economist, who tend to come with impressive infographs very often.

Price change is posted. Very nice app.

2 good apps for PB in a very long while. This is a very interesting app that analyzes your LinkedIn profile.

Not sure if my region makes a difference, but here in Saudi Arabia I got charged USD 3.75, not $4.99.
