A costly and dissapointing experience

I researched into options for displaying aggregated group buying deals and chose Agryia's Feedy script as it looked to be a script that catered for all my needs.... though not the cheapest I was willing to invest.
I then purchased the script with extra add ons as required (mobile version, installation). This was August 5th 2011.
As an overview, I then worked with Agryia on the site over the next 8 weeks but ultimately I was left with a site that didn't serve its purpose and still had bugs and no obvious affiliate income (even with paid for added extra deal feeders)
Issues:
- The site has no obvious way to draw income. Of all the 3rd party merchants added, script, out of the box is not able to format affiliate links for income generation making it in effect useless.
- I asked what "advanced development" was required to get the site working with affiliate links (as they offered this extra service) Though I've asked for pricing on this custom work, no reply was ever given
- The mobile site module which was paid for, was never installed (as discussed with sales contact to install). I asked for a refund on this functionality which was denied but I was offered a few minor deal feeders to compensate (worth a very small fraction of the cost of the mobile module)
- Of the deal feeders paid for and added, "Wahanda" doesn't include the price which is an essential element of this feeder add-on. What use is a "Deal" if it doesn't display a price? This functionality is a paid for solution.
- The script has had numerous bugs that have had to be fixed by your support team over a span of 4 weeks and some bugs still appear (random cities are being populated on the site, even though the support team have written routines to hack the script so this wouldn't happen, yet it still does).
It then took up till the 24th October for them to fully confirm that a refund was not to be given (I wondered whether a delaying tactic so I couldn't dispute via PayPal? I haven't researched enough to verify this).
I also lost out as I paid external developers to work on the skinning of the site, which if it worked would of been very good example of what was possible from the Feedy script, least from a visual viewpoint.
So in closing we did a grand job on re-visualising the feedy script but it's flawed and bugged with errors so will be closed down within the next few weeks. Avoid like the plague if you plan to use it for affiliate earnings (which I was assume is what 95% of people will want it for)

Their yipt clone script has many bugs and was told to me by one of theor employees after i made the purchase for $500 and an additional $50 to install.
After 2 months of trying to fix these bugs ive decided that enough time and money was wasted and to pay $500 for a script with bugs is ridiculous so i asked for a refund. The sales manager agreed on giving me a refund but said it has to go to accounting dept. accounting dept wont answer my emails or calls and are keepign my money.
Bottom line is DON't buy this script or any other script they sell or as they DON'T WoRK!!

While we are sorry that you experienced some problems with setting up the script the fact remains that over 500 other people have purchased Feedy and have active, running websites. Customers can contact Agriya and ask for references of people using our software or check out the portfolio on our website. We'd also like to mention that Agriya's clients have had their sites mentioned on the BBC, in TechCrunch and in the New York Times, which wouldn't happen if the scripts didn't work as the person above claimed. Get in contact, talk to us and find out for yourselves why everyone is using Agriya's software.
