I owned some items from the World Inspiration Compilation, and wanted to see how much it would cost with my Complete Your Set discount. The page, though, had no 'Buy Now!' button, just a 'Download' button. To be clear, I didn't own even half of the items in the set. The download button doesn't show for other incomplete sets I have items from. I clicked it just to see what would happen, and received the whole set without losing any simpoints. When I go to my purchase history, it shows the set, and all included sets, sold to me for 'Free'. I don't know whether this is a bug or an ill-advertised freebie, but I thought I should tip off others.
I'd make a new discussion if I could, but this seemed a relevant discussion.
Hi, yep, that's the beauty of CYS! :)
Don't look at the percent, that is almost entirely irrelevant. What matters is the total cost of the items you own compared to the cost of the set as a whole. The way CYS works is that if the cost of the items you have bought (
not what you actually paid for them but their
original Store price) added up (minus about 10%) is more than the current price of the set then you'll get the rest free - this works even better if the set is on Sale or Daily Deal since it uses that reduced price to compare against what you have already spent!
If you want to really stretch your Simpoints and get more of the Store for less, check out the Daily Deal thread (link in my sig) where there's (a) LOADS of great info and (b) GREAT friendly Simmers really keen to help and explain anything that is confusing. :)
