IPhone StoreKit – invalid product id’s

iphoneiphone-sdk-3.0storekit

I'm trying to test In App Purchase within the sandbox environment.

In order to test the code I did the following:

  1. Created an In App Purchase Test User account under 'Manage Users' in iTunes Connect

  2. Created some in app purchase products under 'Manage Your In App Purchases'. I used numeric values and alpha-numeric values for the Product IDs.

  3. Loaded the app onto the iPhone, went to Settings->Store and logged out of the regular store and into the test account created in step 1

  4. Set a breakpoint in the
    (void)productsRequest:(SKProductsRequest *)request didReceiveResponse:(SKProductsResponse *)response
    callback

All the submitted Product ID's are in the response.invalidProductIdentifiers property.
When submitting the request I first tried the exact Product IDs created during step 2. I also tried prefixing them with the Bundle ID:

NSString *id2 = @"com.super.duper.8";
NSSet *productList = [NSSet setWithObjects:id2, @"8", nil];

SKProductsRequest *request= [[SKProductsRequest alloc] initWithProductIdentifiers:productList];

Am I missing something obvious?
Any help is appreciated.

If you are still getting invalid product ids, I've been accumulating a checklist of all of the various causes:
