Hey, I don't have anything to do with the Play Store or the Nexus 4, but I just wanted to say that I'm sorry that you had such a bad experience. My hope is that Google learns from feedback like your experience so that we don't make these kinds of mistakes in the future. But I'm sorry that trying to get the Nexus 4 was so frustrating. :(
Thanks Matt, I appreciate it. What's so frustrating for me is that I want Google to be the good guys. I want to be able to recommend any and all Google products to friends and family. I hold Google in high esteem, which made this interaction that much worse because it was so far from what I think Google is capable of.
