I think I figured out the problem,

I was testing this on an emulator, so Google Play services was not available. But I tested it on a real device and it works fine.

I do the calling in the sub Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)

In this case, I have another question: How can i detect if Google Play is installed on the device, that way it disables all in-app purchasing features.
