HELP, Android market won't let me buy an amazon free app.

[zippersmith]

Last summer Amazon app store put Pocket Casts podcast app up for free.

Dev and Amazon parted ways and it's no longer updated there. I'd like to buy it from the Android Market.

I deleted it off the phone, AND off the Amazon market.

Strange, the Android Market says I've purchased it and when I go to download it, I get an error message saying the "download was declined because you haven't purchased it."

I've been looking around for a couple days for a solution.
Do you know how to get the Android Market to accurately show that I've NOT purchased it, and give me the option to do so?

Thanks,
Zippersmith

Have you tried clearing the Market's cache and data? It will then reload your Market history from the server.

Yes gordol thanks, I've done that and it doesn't work.

Maybe this is an indirect help, but the dev should still support the purchase. I would contact them directly with your order number and let him know the deal.

How did you manage to delete it off the Market? Even I can't do that.

From the Amazon web site, you can access their App Store and delete stuff from your account.
