Increased Gralat Pack Prices?
I noticed a few days ago the prices for the gralat packs went up 20%. Some people saw it on their screens, some didn't. So I'm looking for confirmation that this isn't just a display error (although I'm hoping it is..): https://fbcdn-photos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t1.0-0/10393774_10155117291990331_8205483634302762839_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&oh=4a6f664c5a9d22c10f4dbb43b59d36c5&oe=556D7A6D&__gda__=1428722962_8249739a9b5081f1c47aa52e4539cceb (Unsupported image host) As you can see, it's a 20% increase all across the board. I'm in Canada, by the way. Edit - Starting to wonder if this is a Canadian currency update of some kind, given that the Canadian dollar is plunging. Am I correct in assuming that? |

Yeah so I looked into this further and it appears Apple did announce that they'll be raising app prices in Canada (and some parts of Europe). I checked the App Store and all the $0.99 apps are now priced at $1.19, as well as $2.99 apps now selling for $3.49, and so on and so fourth. I can't say I'm psyched about it. Also, it's not going to do Toonslab any good. As someone who has bought gralat packs here and there, the #.99 prices were a lot easier to swallow than the current prices. Even if it was just a marketing gimmick, it works. And I have a feeling Toonslab is going to see less profit from Canadian players now. http://iphone.appleinsider.com/artic...-099-in-the-eu (one of many news stories about this)
