I don't understand how any people who bought Rebel 10 at the higher price think they DESERVE a refund. I can just imagine that i purchase some stock for 80$ a share, and a week later, or the next day for that matter it sells, for 40$. I can't go to my broker and say get me back some money from the company. Now in this case Shroeder is doing nothing else than what the market demands. He never expected that the price was going to have to be dropped i'm sure, but even if he did, the early buyers got something no one else did, they got what they wanted when they wanted it, and they thought what they were buying was WORTH the price. So it is extremely difficult for me to think that because they missed a deal, that a company would owe them a refund. Many act like because it went down in two weeks that's the reason they deserve a refund. Well Fritz5 is half as cheap now as when it was when it first sold, yes it's been more time, but firstly no one owes you time, either implicitly, or explicitly. The price came down on Fritz 5 when the market demanded it, exactly the same with shroeder, he doesn't control the market. He owes no refunds.
