Trying to find a particular item on the Sims 3 store

I'm trying to find a particular item on the Sims 3 store. It's a radio that is vaudville style. I've installed all of the worlds, including roaring heights, so it's apparently not in that package. And I've tried searching the Sims 3 store for "music" "radio" and "stereo" it's not showing up in any of them. It was a wooden stereo, with a rounded top. I know I have it, as I own the entire Sims 3 store, yet still I can't find it. I don't want to install the entire Sims 3 store, because with a game that has programming as bad as this, it will ALWAYS glitch. Trying to go for installing minimal as possible, while still having all the stuff I love. So far I've found all but this stereo.

I spoke with an EA adviser who didn't know his stuff, and he told me to post here. So, I'm doing so. But I figure while I'm here, I might as well ask, how DO you find certain things on TS3 Store? I went under store content, all the way under every category, and still couldn't find it. Help?

**(EDIT) I found out that the name of the Stereo is "Blast from the Past Stereo" and it's not under the Sims 3 set "Blast from the Past"

  • @Katlett  Is this it?

    I found it by looking under Store\Store Content\Build/Buy on the banner at the top of the page.  From there, I clicked Buy on the left side of the screen, and then Electronics.  That cut the total down to 57 items, which is so much more manageable.

    If I'm looking for something I can't find, I usually just ask someone else.  There are plenty of people at the sims forums who own the entire store, and someone's going to recognize the item sooner or later.
