Kind of, except Apple doesn't ask, instead Apple automatically reconciles the balance debiting the $100 from the payout balance Apple maintains.

That's the part that puzzles me. If there's a refund, and they penalize me by charging $30 more than I was actually paid, I see that as being problematic. Also, I suspect that it would be illegal in some venues, unless clearly spelled out in the contract. I'll have to spend some quality time, reviewing my contract, to find that...

> 6.3 In the event that Apple receives any notice or claim from any End-User that: (i) the End-User wishes to cancel its license to any of the Licensed Applications within ninety (90) days of the date of download of that Licensed Application by that End-User or the end of the auto-renewing subscription period offered pursuant to section 3.8, if such period is less than ninety (90) days; or (ii) a Licensed Application fails to conform to Your specifications or Your product warranty or the requirements of any applicable law, Apple may refund to the End-User the full amount of the price paid by the End-User for that Licensed Application.

...and here's the (literal) money shot:

> In the event that Apple refunds any such price to an End-User, You shall reimburse, or grant Apple a credit for, an amount equal to the price for that Licensed Application. In the event that Apple receives any notice or claim from a payment provider that an End-User has obtained a refund for a Licensed Application, You shall reimburse, or grant Apple a credit for, an amount equal to the price for that Licensed Application. In such cases, Apple will have the right to retain its commission on the sale of that Licensed Application, notwithstanding the refund of the price to the End-User.

So that answers the question as to whether or not it does happen; but not whether or not it should happen. I guess developers could ask their congresscritters to grill Tim about it...
