Anyone noticed that Bob's Victorian house is no longer in the store? It didn't have a time limit on it and was about to buy it today...
EA haven't been very helpful lately in leaving this out, you shouldn't have to check forums to find out that something is only available for a limited time.

The items have timers on them.
Bob's Victorian House didn't have a countdown or say it was limited time - just said 'recommended' when it was in the store. I had to rely on the info here to know when it was leaving.

Just wanted to add that in my game it was the same way. No indication in game that it was a limited time item.
That's what I was afraid of, but like others pointed out, there was no "limited time" indicator, and being a premium item and all, I figured it would be available regularly (like a SH addition, and was not a Halloween tie in. I bought donuts today specifically to buy it...
Is Fairy Kodos skin at risk of disappearing next? Rest assured, if it should suddenly no longer be available in the store, I'll let you know here a couple days afterward!
If something appears in the recommended list, it also appears elsewhere. The 'elsewhere' is the part that has timing info. BUt, honestly, you saved yourself some donuts. I bought it, and regret it. Ill likely end up shelving it whEn and if I nuke soon...

Nope. Only some of them do. It's actually the worst case scenario. If NO items had timers, the person could be reasonably expected to at least wonder ....since special event items DO have an expiration ... They would at least know to ask.
But these screens specify items WHICH items are limited time WITH the timer you describe. There will be a whole crapload of players out there wondering where Fairy Kodos disappeared to. And if they complain about it, they are 100% justified in doing so.
This one is directly the blame of EA. Make up your mind, EA. Give us timers or don't give us timers.
Maybe the kids costumes are permanent? I know for certain that Fairy Kodos is limited time. ONLY because someone who got into EA files tells me that. There is no alternate way for me to know what date, unless I'm one of the miniscule portion (out of the millions of TSTO players around the world) who come to this forum.

That would make some sense if it had that blue "recommended" button ... Which takes the space of limited time dates. But ...
The images I posted above were not from the recommended list...they are from the event store menu. The expiration dates for those items are nowhere to be seen. At least, for me.
Hopefully EA sees this thread and brings the house back during the end of the event; but, I'm not holding my breath since it was a tie-in (though this wasn't obvious to anybody).

I too was going to buy this but at a later date cos i also assumed it was permanent as it didnt have a timer and im fairly certain it never even appeared the Halloween menu.
Regarding the kids costumes and fairy Kodos if anything in the event menu doesnt have a timer i just assume its available until the end.
Bit gutted i've missed out on the house but if EA cant label stuff properly then i guess i'll keep my money then. You shouldn't have to log in to a forum everyday to get that sort of basic information, and lets face it, what percentage of players actually use this forum??
I was going to use my frogurt donuts to buy it, but oh well. It didn't look like a limited item. Yet another reason that I'm no longer the premium player I once was.

Maybe EA wants us all to read the files.
