so you finally admit it is messed up. so basically you were providing nothing helpful or insightful to the thread other then to say deal with it.
i'll take that on board, but it ultimately solves nothing.
if you have any other practical solutions or ideas other then emailing which has already been done, then please do contribute again.

The bottom line is, it costs what it costs. Whether it's different for you than it is for me is nothing you or I can control. If it is worth the price to you, then you buy it, regardless of what that price is somewhere else. If it isn't, then you don't.
thank you for at least trying to provide a reason for your view unlike others here.
the fact is, there isnt any complex laws or conversion rates to blame here.
this is shown by the new bb world not having this problem and also other os app stores converting correctly.
the problem was on blackberry's end, but it will die out with bb7.
