Selling Sims 3 disks
I'm not really a gamer, l've not played Sims 3 for a few years now, hence the query about selling my old disks and my lack of knowledge about this topic: can I sell my old sims 3 game/expansions when...
Hey there @SerialSim023
Codes can only be redeemed once to a single account- if you've redeemed these codes to your account already, they would not be valid to be redeemed again and someone else will not be able to use them.
Thank you for your response! Just to verify, the disks themselves are now useless to someone else?
What do other people do with the disks, just put them in the bin?
@SerialSim023 Some people install their game via disc, and their packs too, so they can avoid the EA App entirely. This is only possible if the base game disc was manufactured prior to September 2012; the dates on the other discs don't matter. The point is, these discs are very useful for those who've registered their games but would rather not be tied to the EA App.
I would suggest not throwing yours out just because you might want them someday, whether it's because the EA App is frustrating to use or you want to keep a computer offline or whatever. I also know that some people who already own the game actively seek to collect extra discs as backups in case theirs get worn out, or to switch to an all-disc install. So you might know someone who would appreciate the donation.
