@DeservedCriticism I believe you nailed it. The Sims fans tend to be completionists: no matter how bad or expensive a DLC is, they will buy it. Just look at the recent vampire nerf controversy: there are people who bough the Vampires GP because of the CAS items. Some even dislike vampires. They were willing to pay a GP's price for something they basically see as a SP with an undesirable (for them) feature (which happens to be the GP's main selling point, but no big deal, apparently). Go figure. The only explanation I can find for people like those is that they somehow got enough aspiration points to buy a real money tree.
