Maybe it isn't allowing you to bundle right now because bundles are on sale and GF is not?

Other people earlier in the thread were able to make a bundle with GF. And there's already a thread on the EA Help Forums about it, so it's most likely a bug.

Perhaps the latest patch is the issue...

If you all would go back and read the first post in the thread, it says GF is EXCLUDED from this sale.

Your wish is my command~

I'm moved this to General Discussion, @simgirl1010

My wish is for GF to be on sale, without any of the bundle stuff that I don't qualify for.

We are all aware of this. We are talking about how we are unable to build a bundle with GF. Bundles are a cheaper way of buying an expansion, a game pack and a stuff pack all together. The issue is some people can build a bundle with it currently with the slight sale on bundles and some can’t which is frustrating.

No, it doesn't. The way the offer is phrased, Get Famous is excluded from the 50% discount on expansion packs. But there is an option on Origin to bundle any EP with a GP and SP for a slight discount. Those bundles are even more discounted during Black Friday week (by an additional 20%). The question is now, since Get Famous doesn't get the 50% discount, does a bundle with it in get a) the normal bundle discount only or does it b) benefit from the extra 20% off? I'm leaning towards (a), but cannot be sure, that's why I asked.
Although with so many customers being unable to create a bundle with Get Famous in at all, the question how much this impossible bundle would be discounted seems rather moot now.

But no SPs on sale ... again. It is a drag that even the older stuff packs are still full price, never get cheaper and rarely go on sale. This is why I dislike the digital only nonsense. If they were still putting stuff out on discs we could at least go bargain bin hunting once in a while to catch a deal on SPs.

Logically, I know SPs are not expensive at $10, but considering how little I actually use out of each pack... I just wish they would include them in the deals more often.

Heads up! Been on live chat with EA....

It’s a regional error! The assistant said that it’s been flagged as many people are complaining of missing out... it’s not meant to be available in the bundle packs but for some reason it’s allowed for certain regions.. weird

Anywho, they gave me a discount code on my next purchase, so hopefully that’ll bring down the game pack etc that I would have got in a bundle to around the same price..

Such confusion! ??

Hi everyone,

As some of you have read on my Answers HQ post, The Sims 4 Get Famous Expansion Pack has been temporarily removed from The Sims 4 Build Your Bundle during the Black Friday Sale. It will be back November 27.

It seems some of you are still seeing The Sims 4 Get Famous on Build Your Bundle because of the browser's cache and this is of course causings some confusion. It's the same reason you will notice the price change when you go to the purchase confirmation page, as the pack is not meant to be available right now. Clearing your cache or using your browser's incognito mode should load the full and updated Build Your Bundle page.

If you would want to know more, I've posted a detailed (and a bit long) explanation here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/The-Sims-4-Get-Famous-not-showing-in-Build-and-buy-a-bundle/m-p/7191287#M128351

Thanks!
-Mai

Do you know if I get the 20% discount if I make a bundle with Get Famous?
