Best affordable gaming laptop for the sims 4?

xcherryerim​  This is an alternative if you want to keep the price down.  It has the same graphics card, RAM, and storage, and a processor that's also good enough:

However, this model laptop runs hot and noisy, so if you want to play with speakers, or are sensitive to noise even through your headphones, it's not a good choice.  I know someone who has one (albeit with higher specs) and I can hear the fan three rooms away.  It's not a terrible noise, just loud enough to be distracting without some kind of muffling.

If you like Best Buy and Walmart better than Amazon, this and the first laptop I linked are your best bets.  You're not going to see a better price on a comparable laptop, at least not new and from a reputable store, than the MSI—Walmart often steeply discounts one or two laptops at a time to prices that are frankly unreasonable for anyone to match.  Costco does too, if you're a member, but the trade-off is the selection is very limited.  And if you want something a bit higher quality, and not as loud, the Victus is as cheap as you'er going to see, although I can always search for other options that might be equivalent in price.

As for shipping, could you send it to your work address, or to a friend or family member?  I believe Best Buy will also ship to a physical store if it's not in stock there.
