  1. Hello all - a friendly warning. I recently purchased Dauntless Software "SimPlates" PC version for GBP £31 (USD $40). Shortly afterwards, I received an unsolicited email purporting to be from Dauntless offering an iPad version at discount, as follows (my emphasis): The current price on the App Store is £39 (USD $51) - a 25% price *increase* on the PC version, not discount. I wrote to Dauntless requesting clarification and received an email contradicting the unsolicited marketing offer as follow (my emphasis): The email went on to state: which I did. This prompted the following message from Dauntless, reproduced in full: As far as I can tell, Dauntless are perpetrating an attempt via unsolicited "spam" marketing to solicit Apple App Store purchases on the basis of fictitious offers of a discount, in clear violation of Apple's App Store policies. You will no doubt wish to make your own mind up about whether to deal with a company that offers fictitious discounts, invites communication, then issues the threat of referral to authorities to routine enquiries. Regarding the product itself, in my view it is vastly overpriced for the utility. The iPad version currently has a rating of 1 star.
