    Awesome, i'm happy for you have fun with it :)

    I thought it was too expensive though, I mean it's £30 in the UK, just seems like a lot of money for a mouse :D

    I really really want the headphones, but I may go with the mouse instead.

    Yeah, it is a bit spendy, but I had a bunch of amazon gift cards left over from Christmas and my birthday in March, that I was waiting to spend on something really special... :mrgreen:

    I thought about getting the headphones, too, but I don't really use them except for when I exercise, and I wouldn't want to ruin them. :lol:

    Btw...I love your siggy. :D

    Although 30 GBP is not a lot for a mouse. That would be 45 CHF, and normally a mouse would cost double or more. (in Switzerland)

    Anyone know how much the headphones are?

    £30 not a lot for a mouse? I would have to politely disagree, it seems very expensive for a mouse in the UK. :(

    It is for a regular mouse, I agree. But my husband spent about $60 on his gaming mouse...now that's really expensive! lol

    $60 would be about £35 here in the UK, so not much more than this mouse. I think i'd be opting for the proper gaming mouse, seems like much better value to me. :)

    Okay, lemme rephrase that... It's not that expensive for a mouse for anyone living in Switzerland :P

    I don't mean to say that we're all rich biches, because we're not, but you usually get gaming mice for around 90-120 CHF here.

    Wow, I checked out their page and those prices definitely aren't standard conversion rates. Those UK prices seem to be quite a bit higher.

    Congrats! I actually bought mine today off amazon and I kept debating whether or not to get the headphones. If I do get them It'll probably be in late August which is my birthday. But who knows? Im not getting the mouse pad though cause I can just use a book lol

    It's a corded mouse. I have the TS3 sims-mouse and I love it, but the cord limits it very much. My cordless logitech mouse outperforms it because I basically use my entire desk. ^^

    I have the Sims 3 mouse, so I'll probably get this one too. I might wait until Christmas though and have someone else buy me it instead. hehe

    Yeah, that is what I will suggest to my family when they ask what I want. Don't want Sims 4, but I like the peripherals.
    Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

    mouses and keyboards can get expensive, the sims mouse looks pretty though ;)so grats on the buy, hope you enjoy it!
    but ever since i started using this mouse i can't handle a regular one anymore (since this one you can adjust lengt and sizes to fit your hand well in person)
    they just feel too small for my palm

    Where are you looking as JB Hifi has them for $69 for headphones and $49 for the mouse online for pre-order at the moment?

    It's not much but it's a small saving!

    That mouse has a cord right?

    Wow - haven't had a wired mouse for about a decade. They will be placing little balls in the bottom of them next! ;)

    Maybe if they bring out a really kicking quality cordless mouse I will have a good look...

    It's £24.99 on Amazon UK not £30 :) But yeah that is pretty expensive, my last mouse cost £3 and it's lasted aaaagess! I still kinda want this one though... will it work with laptops? I.e. USB output?

    Also, what I don't get with the headset is that the plumbobs change with your sims emotion... but if you're wearing them you won't see it anyway?!
