Excuse me?! Decor prices have doubled?? [Archive]

Mine too.

Hello, my expansion I was saving for is now 8,000,000 coins! (which was 4,000,000). I didn't notice this until after I restarted my device, so it's up to date. Tons of other stuff is now doubled as well.

Fair or unfair, it's less fun, which will just mean I spend less time on this. The forty plus force restarts these days just adds to it.

Answer: from this thread (http://forums.teamlava.com/showthread.php?30968-Different-Pricing-for-two-users&highlight=Price):
Not everyone will see the same prices for things in game.

I don't know if it's just you or something new. Try restarting your device because all my prices are the same in Bakery Story. If that doesn't help, try emailing support or flag down a Community Manager for their response.

Seriously TL, this is a bug right?? Instead of $4,000,000 for my next expansion it's now $8,000,000!! Pretty much everything has doubled, tripled in price for me, same as the players above. What are you guys doing? I'm going to bite my tongue right now and assume this is a bug and wait for you to FIX it, ASAP please. Have you all lost your marbles or what?? It would be nice if you could also fix the lagging in the game, since the Olympic Games version has come out everything just seems real slow. Please and thanks....

Well it's obviously by design, TL have done this to encourage gem purchases/tempt people into buying gems to expand. I used to purchase gems every month I will NOT be purchasing anymore! :( this combined with constant refreshing which means I have to repeat the same action twenty times over is literally taking the fun out of the game. Why TL?? People would purchase gems anyway without all of these underhand tactics :( way to alienate some of your customer base!

LMAO! Maybe they can update their Mobster game with some Banksters, we're getting robbed! I'm seriously considering not buying gems anymore, what's the point? If I can't expand then there's no room for new decorations. Go ahead TeamLava, make silly decorations that don't belong in a bakery. It'll make it wasy easier for me not to buy! I'm going to make a conspiracy theory claim, what if......just maybe this company isn't interested in producing for Bakery Story anymore? Maybe they want to irritate us and force us to stop playing all together so they don't have to design new updates and work on other types of games? If this comment gets moderated or 86'd all together then I'm right!

I'm using Bakery Story World Games, but just checked in the regular version, and in both versions the prices are increased for me. I'm also trying to complete the goals for the other TL games as the OP stated. Maybe that has something to do with it, because once you gain the goal level, you are supposed to buy a decoration. Maybe prices will go back to normal once those are done, but if not, I will be extremely unhappy. :/

If a store raises their prices to a point people are not ok paying, eventually those people do shop elsewhere.

If this is a new adjustment to the pricing then wouldn't it be fair to assume an equal increase in amount made by players (income) would increase as well? The way it stands now this game, at least to me, is no longer fun to play. Especially knowing that only some of the play

You shouldn't have to complete goals to have your pricing returned to normal. I had decided not to do the goals, they are the worst goals on any TL game (in my opinion) that I've ever come across. This is absolute nonsense, I'm ready to serve what's on my stoves and I don't want to bake anything else for those ridiculous prices! So the only option left to me is to leave my stoves empty and close up my bakery!! I don't want to but what's the point anymore. This is so out of order TL...what the {} is going on here?

Well as someone pointed out in another thread, it appears I've been asleep for a day. My prices could have gone up and then back down, but I don't know, because I never checked! I'm glad the problem was fixed though.

I just started playing within the last couple of days and I had no idea that my prices were doubled. I have restarted my device (iPod 8 gigs, 4th generation) and I've seen no change in prices. To confirm that my prices are doubled: My Brownies cost 60, Hurdle Dividers cost 8,000, and Pot O' Gold counters cost 15,554.

This (http://forums.teamlava.com/showthread.php?29144-Glitch-costs-me-100-s-of-thousands-of-coins-in-profit) rollback glitch makes it worse. I'm pretty sure I have been ripped off over half of what I've spent - over 200,000 coins judging from the badge I got yesterday - and the random loss of items probably makes it a lot more coins than I think. And from past experiences with game companies, I won't get any compensation for what I lost. Which is fine by me, really, if one of these problems gets fixed. But they're not.

Kp on another thread said everyones prices have been fixed. Try deleting and reinstalling the game, you won't loose any progress. Let us know if this works!

According to TL, "Please note that changes to features or prices may occur as you continue to play the game. We continue to make adjustments to the game's economy and balance to ensure the prolonged quality of the game for both new and existing users".

Apparently bug has been fixed, so any variation in prices at this time are due to game balances i.e. if your bakery story still shows high prices (LIKE MINE STILL DOES), then TOO BAD..
GRRR, this is how they solve, or rather DONT' SOLVE things??!

I had the lower prices originally. Then they went up for a day then they were back down. My daughter has had the higher prices the whole time. Sadly, because of this she can't do the Olympic goals.

Nope, it doesn't. I have tried (reinstalled and reset) multiple times, before and after the maintenance.

If it helps, I've had the glitch since I started.

My daughter's prices have always been high too and reinstalling and restarting have not helped.

I don't think is a glitch I think it's intentional

Join the club, I've had the glitch since I started the game too. Doesn't seem like there's a solution to this.

I play on an iPhone 4s and my prices are double what my son's are on his iPod. It makes this game not so fun:/ Is this going to be fixed? If not, I may just delete this one. I love restaurant and dragon story, but this is very frustrating

My version of the reply:

This person's version of the reply:

They are clearly aware of the issue since we both told them about it AND they copy/pasted the exact same reply over the exact same issue.

Apparently, they're "unable to revert the prices to their original amount at this time," meaning that they don't even care that some players have an unfair advantage over other players.

Yeah. I think the same thing. They just don't want to change the prices back to the original. Well if you found it so easy to rack up the prices, what's so hard about lowering the prices.
But please, do not post support tickets into the forums, as they are private and confidential like a Private Message.
Plus, I wouldn't want you to be on a "vacation" from the forums.

getting extra appliances for me costs 49 gems to unlock instead of 24. never did unlock them in the first place after the maximum. my potted plants and other decors seem to have stayed the same. dumb price changes...

I have double prices as well, so I am feeling very ripped off by team lava. I installed this game to get the gems for dragon story, and I like the game enough to keep playing, but then I realised that all my prices are double what everyone else's were.

So unless the doubled prices are fixed I will be deleting the game :(

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and it has not fixed the problem.

I have now got an email back from team lava that they won't fix the doubled prices :( I am now seriously considering deleting all my team lava games

😞 Add me to the list filing for Bankrupt Story. My prices went up couple days ago and it hasn't gone back since. Sad thing is I just discovered the game the day BEFORE (everything was ok.) I even recommended it to my friend, she liked the game and lucky for her, her prices are the right one. It's not a matter of device as we are both using iPhones.

I purchased some potted plants to get a badge and had to spend 40k on the puny things. Mastering 60c brownies isn't as fun, let me tell you.

Team Lava, if you want to help me, please do, I've emailed you too 😞 I was enjoying your game before.
