I am not a lawyer (and I suspect you aren't either), but I doubt that's true. Google and other companies sponsor many events and charities, when there are no profits - expected or actual - as a result of such sponsorship. I also note that you said "break even", which is exactly what the app store does (I never said Google loses money on it, I said Google doesn't make a profit from it) In any case, my point is: if you can find another reseller somewhere that does NOT pass chargeback costs on to you, then I bet that reseller is taking more than 30% of the sale price. It's a trade-off. Either you handle these things yourself, or you pay someone else to do it for it you. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
