[Q] [Android] 4.0+ Air Swiper - Price discussion - Paid Software Announcement and Discussion

Hello guys,
recently I was given an offer from a company, which wanted me to sell them my application - Air Swiper.
Now I wonder, what do you guys think the price for the app should be set to?
What could be its real price in your eyes? That is what I would like to know.
What are your opinions? I am really curious about it and I would really like to discuss it with you. I would even like to ask you guys, is the app worth selling or should I keep it?
I am a total beginner in selling things like these and thought, people on XDA could have some idea.
Please be honest and share you thoughts.
Thank you everyone so much!

And you can find more of them on Google.

Still no one, who could help me? I am getting really curious, since I have never got myself into a situation like this and I would appreciate a help or even any useful feedback.

Cant say I've seen the app but intellectual property is difficult to t a price too unless you have sales figures. I would invest some time in looking at the company looking to buy your app to gauge what kind of offer they may be willing to pay, in addition ask yourself does you app have multiple uses can it be applied to other uses ect... and work from there.

Well I was thinking about what you have said. And.. the first thing is the price they offer is 2500 USD, which from what I was discussing is probably a good one. And my app can be applied to a lots of uses or at least I think so.

More uses means more money.
They want your app at 2500, first offer. Why not counter with 3500 and if the balk then meet half way at 3000. You just picked up an extra car payment. You get the idea?

They want maximally those 2500 so I am curious if I am not going into a fail, because a lot of people told me that it is a low offer.

I've seen an app sell for 13.000 euros (so even more in dollars) so 2.5K looks a bit cheap to me. This might be a late reply.

I visited a couple but they require you to pay for a newsletter or don't give out much information. I was advised by my coworkers to start at Penny stocks to learn the ropes.

Devices on Google Play: Did we help answer your question?

Hey everyone. Just want to reach out and make a suggestion to the folks who pre-ordered their N7's through Google Play. This morning I received an email from Google Play asking me to complete a satisfaction survey concerning their customer support in returning my email inquiry regarding N7 shipment status and the Googly Play store in general. So, I told them exactly what I thought they did wrong and how they could attempt to make amends with their customers.
I would like everyone to use this opportunity to offer CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM to the Google Play team. Sure, they ****ed up, but getting angry at them will most certainly not help the cause. Use the comments section of the survey to politely inform them of their mistakes in your opinion and they will be much more obliged to right this wrong. If you didn't get a survey then send them an email. Personally, I get satisfaction in knowing that a large corporation is forced to read my opinions
TL;DR - Politely tell Google Play how they ****ed up.
Please explain how they f'd up.
I don't see how they did.

If you don't think they did then this thread is not for you.

Yeah, I'm also wondering how the f'd up. Sure, I would have liked to receive my device before it hit stores, but they never said it would.
The one thing I'm disappointed with them about, is how they're not allowing for pre-orders of the N7 case. It seems like it comes on, sells out in under a minute, and it's back to out-of-stock. If you're lucky, very lucky, you can grab one. Why not do a first-come-first-serve pre-order?!

If Google wish to subsidise the phone to get people to use their store, that's upto them.

Frankly, these petitions are getting out of hand! Its supposed to be a powerful tool to gather the masses for things that really matter. Open source, more support, freedom, things that are important. LG or any other manufacturer for that matter won't reduce their prices just because someone who does not know half the things going behind pricing decisions, asks them to. Don't like the pricing, don't buy.
This needs to be stopped, or even the petitions which would have had an impact otherwise will start looking like someone throwing a tantrum.

Exactly this :highfive:
I sure hope a google employee isn't on this forum reading these threads. Google comes out with a phone that is much less expensive than anything else of comparable specs and yet we still have people trying to stir up the masses against them?
Should I start a petition against toyota that my car costs a different amount than in other countries? How about any manufacturer of anything I start a petition against?
Everyone stop acting as company CEO's, your beloved item you want isn't the price you want, DONT BUY IT. You can even go ahead and hate the company, that's not how vusiness is conducted. Company choose prices and then consumers decide if they buy or not. And then, guess on who's wallet it is if they didn't choose the optimal price? THE COMPANY, so shut up and swallow the pill or start your own phone making business.
There are much more important things that you guys could create a petition for.
I went ahead and reported this thread to the mods to lock / delete.

So the nexus 7 is the same price in store and on the play store but the nexus 4 isn't?

Then why don't you take some action and try do something about it?
I think, and I want to believe that this reaction from your part at all, and due to a misunderstanding of the fact. know that the problem is producing not only for Italy, but for all of Europe and probably even for the usa! LG has decided to sell its nexus € 4590 / $, then it is available to 350 € / $ on google playstore. but the real concern is that some countries are not entitled to google playstore, and even if this is not the fault of LG, were it even really penalizes countries that are in the story! ! In addition to that, how can sell LG mobile google, which declare his mobile trying to sell € 350 / $ because it is mobile prices too expensive! So yes, it is true that the petition is based are made for much more serious problem than the price of a smartphone, but at the same time, this is the only way that works for a multinational company has to understand that we sum does not agree with his political advantage against all odds!

under your username sense, I would like you to remember that we are civilized and free people to express these feelings WITHOUT SANSURE! so if you disagree with my point of view, which is your right after all, its not a reason to ask for a closing thread is NOT offensive to anyone, OR trigger hatred !
OK guys cool down. The mods already know about this thread. And while I think it is pointed in the wrong direction it is not hurting anyone. If it gets out of hand I will close it.
Now as for the "without censor" that is not the case. This thread will be censored if it gets out of hand.

You think you should be able to post anything on a privately owned forum with no controls from the moderators?
As for the thread being locked / deleted, that's because these sort of petition threads don't do anything good for the forum and always turn into flamewars. You can see the same thing happening in the "petition for microsd card slot" thread below this one.

POLL: How many phones ordered?

This is an attempt to count the Sales of phones Google sold on day one. Lets face it, a good percentage of people who ordered this phone browse these forums......So if you ordered 2 or 3 lets count those as well. All countries included....
How many phones did you buy?
Also if you are one of the ones reselling on Ebay, lets NOT count those....you don't need to identify yourself of course, just remain silent...... So we can add roughly 280 for those......
There's already a thread.
Only 2% of all those that buy nexus use xda lol...but ok 1
I only bought 1 for myself. The profit margin here from reselling does not seem worth it to me for the time and hassle of reselling. Plus I hate wanting something so bad but it being sold out cause of resellers.

I do not want to be the asshole here but should we really support someone who has not enough money to buy the glasses to take a loan to get them? I think we should help op rethink this they will be avaible in a cheaper and more consumer ready version within a year or something. but his loan will be influenceing him for at least that time. if you haven't $1500 as playmoney you should never spend it on something like that use ur money for education so that you have 1500$ as playmoney soon.
