Ok,
I am tired of a great injustice on this store. Yes, I am referring to the CYS discount. Or rather the fact that it is not available on everything, but more specifically Venues/Worlds/Any set with "The Not So Routine Machine".
I realize the CYS discount is a "new feature", but the truth is it something we should have had from DAY 1. And there is no reason ANY thing on this store should have those dreaded words: "This set is not available for the Complete Your Set discount at this time."
To be clear: I am not asking they break up Venues for individual pieces, which while I am POSITIVE we would all like is very unlikely due to marketing / business reasons. I am not even asking that they separate the PC out of the worlds after a certain period of time. All I am tired of is them AS A RULE not allowing CYS on Venues/Worlds forcing us to pay TWICE for content we may already own if we want to upgrade!
If I own the PC on the Venue, I should get CYS on the Venue!
If I own the Venue in a Gold World, I should get CYS on the World! (at least if sold in SP).
PERIOD. I am shocked this request is even necessary. It should be obviously that these are prime upsell opportunities for individuals that may not have had the points at that time or changed their mind and want a venue after all. I mean come on... we already own the single most expensive thing (either the PC or Venue) in EVERY situation!!! It should be a "no brainer" that we are prime candidates to purchase the related content.
So... I am not one of those people who signs or creates petitions. And I want to get their attention, but that's not my way. Rather, I believe we should make it our mission that this thread stays on the front page UNTIL this injustice is fixed.
Therefore, all I ask is that we constantly BUMP this thread until it is addressed. You can reply just with "bump", tell us the weather, a joke, have chit-chat among yourselves, whatever, as many times as you want. Just no cursing or anything that will get it deleted.
I say lets KEEP this thread AT the TOP until it is addressed. And to drive it home I will continue to track the number of days
Alright, on your mark, get set, go!!!

I want the store to enable CYS on Venues because we can buy the PC item and should not have to pay for it twice.
So yes, I think there should be a bit of a discount if you already have the premium item.
And why I have to pay for Keep me clean outdoor shower 500 SP, when I'm owning Sunlit Tides Gold? :?
Sorry for editing my comments frequently, in most cases I'm doing this due language issues (english isn't my native language, but I'm using english, because most used by people, with who I want to communicate).
And, like others have said, owning a PC part of a venue, but still having to pay for it "again" with the venues and stuff. :?

I was one of those that "paid twice" for PC content.
I had the Humble Harvest Stands, then bought the Venue on DD.
While it was a good DD sale, that means the "discount value" isn't as great this way.
Even worse, that venue went on an even cheaper DD sale a couple weeks later
(there were a few more cases like this)
I have the issue of owning the worlds & matching venues, but wait..can't claim the gold version! :roll:
Also, sets that have no CYS & peeve me off w/ price next to them, despite owning ALL the pics from those sets:
The Final Frontier Set
When Worlds Collide Collection
Seeing Stars
Show Stopping Styles Collection
The only thing that made me say "YAY!", was getting some of the exclusive MMAO CAS items free.
You have to own all the CAS items in the Store, so when you are offered the "exclusives", keep refusing the offers asking for simpoints.
Eventually it offers them free.
At least that's how I did it.
I wouldn't even have had all the CAS items, but it was those darn CAS Goodie Boxes that did it.
Chock full of Yuk..& more yuk..(straw hats, genie pants, many SS CAS items)& duplicates! :shock:
I DID want SOME of the CAS items it gave...but then again, I PAID for those Goodie boxes, they are not free!
I paid for many pieces of yuk! :oops:
I should just cut my bank card so I can never do that again!
I've done this too, and I wasn't happy about buying something I already owned just to complete a venue.
Although this won't help me at this point, since I own all the venues, I still want to show my support for this idea, because it would be a good thing and I am sure the store would make money because it would encourage people to complete venues that otherwise they would probably never own.
Seems like common sense.
Oh btw, in theme of this thread: BUMP

BUT be careful of Complete Your Set. I posted this individually too - but here it is again just since I think people should be aware:
I own the "Drifter's Desire" set, which is part of the Fortune's Folly Compilation along with Through the Spyglass and Through the Spyglass Bathroom. Currently, my "Complete Your Set Discount" price for rest of the Fortune's Folly Compilation is 1,125 Simpoints. I wanted to check how much I would safe if I bought the compilation instead of buying the individual sets, so I looked up each individual price. Through the Spyglass costs 496 Simpoints, and Through the Spyglass bathroom costs 521 Simpoints, which comes to a total of1,017. Guess what? Buying both sets individually is actually less expensive than buying the compilation with the Complete Your Set "Discount." The "Discount" is actually 108 Simpoints more expensive than the individual sets.
Not sure if this compilation is always more expensive than the individual sets or if it depends on which set you own. I just wanted to let others know in case you were thinking of buying the compilation after buying Drifter's Desire on the Daily Deal the other day!
Then I bought the Lollypop Lollygagger Chair on Daily Deal. This made the difference between the Compilation price and the individual set prices even more ridiculous.
Lollypop Chair reduced price of of the "Through the Spyglass" set to 375 Simpoints. Combined with the price of the "Through the Spyglass Bathroom" set, 521 Simpoints, buying both sets individually costs 896 Simpoints.
However, the price of the Fortune's Folly Compilation with the Drifter's Desire set fully owned + the Lollypop chair is 1,060 Simpoints.
Lesson Learned: Don't always assume completing a compilation is less expensive than buying sets individually.
