I just noticed nearly all the coin prices are doubled for android players only, including tables, chairs, decorations... Only the price for the Mocha counter stays the same, which is 5000 coins. The gem prices for all the items remain the same. I hope this is a bug or there is something wrong with my own account, otherwise I will give up BS.

Well, this did happen to all players few days ago, and it was a bug. Wait for awhile. It can be that bug again.

The new Olympic stuff is double the price on my galaxy (android) than it is on my iPad. I'm low level player on my galaxy bakery to so no way will I ever get enough coins before the Olympics are finished. Don't really care as long as it doesn't happen to my main game on my iPad.

That being said it should still be lowered for others as its not fair to them.

I am in the same boat with you. I give up my android pad now, only use it to send gifts to my ipad.

It's just not fair. Bug or not. Someone in the Studios had to design that to happen. It doesn't make sense to glitch and double prices by itself.

Not just android players. All my prices are doubled as well, and I play on an iPad. I emailed teamlava about, and they said they won't fix it :( it is so unfair that some players have doubled prices compared to others :(

I just love it when they can't give any of us straight answers or at least an explanation or reason. How am I supposed to trust a company that uses my money to make good choices for its' players? I'm scared now.

By the way, in the email that team lava sent me about the doubled prices, they referred to it as a 'new pricing structure' so it is obviously deliberate on their part :(

In my translation it's: We don't want to change the price, so THERE! :(
It's like... it's like... it's like discrimination all over again. Do I not play the same games as you? Should I not have to pay the same low prices?

Yep, and I also won't be able to go for the Olympic goals because of the doubled prices on everything :(

Thank you for letting me know. I was thinking this was deliberate because the coin price of several items remained the same. There must be a "rule" for TL to raise the price of some users while keep the others the same. It's the most annoying to me that the price for expansion is doubled too!

Well I'll say this then.
So with my prices doubled when will the doubled coins and gems be added into my account?

A week ago they did the prices doubled for some players Including me... And they fixed it back.... Why not fix it for everyone especially new players... Or is tl trying to slow low player down so they dont abandon the game and buy gems

This is so disturbing. I just recently started playing, and while researching future recipes and expansion costs, I noticed the discrepancy in prices. I also asked my neighbours how much they pay for say a mocha and lo and behold! They pay 400, I pay 800. Wtf!? So all my items and expansions cost double while I effectivley make only half the gold older players do?? Absurd.
Why would I ever spend money on a game like that!
Playing on Ipad2, btw, so it's not an android issue.
I really hope teamlava fixes this ridiculous situation. Whats the point of playing when you are so crippled in your advancement, compared to the vast majority of existing players.

Yeah. That must mean that they're making this happen by default. But of course everything is random with TeamLava so some random users were effected.

It was a bug for most of us... And got fixed....but it's the reign to other players who just started.. Which I think it's unfair

Of course its unfair. New players are effectivley at a 3-4 to 1 disadvantage to existing players. Earn less - pay twice. So backwards and discouraging. In most other games you would actualy give some starting bonus to newer players instead of putting them at an even bigger disadvantage, lol :D

I just hope teamlava fixes this, cause its a pretty neat game, and I dont want quit over some BS issue like this

Definitely unfair. I really enjoy bakery story, but I wil delete all my teamlava games if this isn't fixed :(

Well, wow :), the prices are back to normal for me. I wrote to support last week and they said theyd forward my feedback to the developers. dunno if they fixed it for all new players, but it's nice to be playing with the fair prices again. just in time too. the stuff was just too expensive for my low income

Just checked, and mine are fixed as well :) Definitely better to be playing with fair prices!

I just saw my expansion price double overnight! I thought 5 million was impossible when profits took a major hit...but 10 million IS impossible!!! As a Kindle player, its getting more discouraging by the day!
