Wait... WHAT? Wasn't it $19.99 this morning? When I go to the website it is $12.99! Did they cut the price that fast or is it just showing to me?

It's 12.99 in Mexico, US its 19.99. So, depending on your location the prices are different.

Wait... WHAT? Something is cheaper in Mexico than in the USA? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I live in Tijuana, was born in San Diego, and always go to the States when I want to buy games, clothes and stuff because it is far more expensive here! I'm glad it's cheaper here, but... WHY DOES THE PRICE CHANGE DEPENDING ON THE COUNTRY? O.O
Funny thing is, I have family members who go to Mexico when they want stuff cheaper. xD I think it just depends on where you're shopping. San Diego isn't exactly cheap. But the way money is converted and what it's thought people in the region can afford is probably how the prices are determined. (As well as tax laws)
There's always a way to get something cheaper in this world, how much and how to do it are another topic entirely.

This morning it was $50 nz (about $38 us). After protests they reduced it to $40 ($30 US)
So we are paying nearly 2 and half times as much as you.

WHAT? THAT'S A LOT!
What is a VPN? :P
That's really expensive!
Yeah, you people paying over $20 USD should demand a lower price and let them know you won't buy it otherwise! If they see no one will buy it, I'm sure they'll change the price!
Well that's my stance, unfortunately there are always people who go ahead and buy it which kind of screws that up lol.
I'm waiting, my sims don't need to go camping that badly.
Because the value of the dollar is different in Mexico.
The dollar can be stronger depending on where you are. So for people living in Mexico, paying $13 is just as much as someone from the US paying $20.

I live in a euro-country, too, so yes, it's 20€ for me, too. Kind of annoying that it's more than the US price
While I'm really tempted to get this pack now, I think I'll wait for a while. Just in case there's a sale on Origin soon
Anyway, I really don't know about the dollar prices, but this generally seems less expensive than Sims 3 EP:s and SP:s. I mean, I know it has less content than Sims 3 EP:s, but it does have new game play unlike Sims 3 SP:s, and I think they were about 20€, too, at least their original price. So, if I get something even close to an EP at the price of an SP, I guess it's a pretty good deal. Although I only ever bought one Sims 3 SP, and it was on sale.
Seem cheapest price is for all America except USA and Canada
Sepaking at other forum [where is used use pirate copies] it is reasonable, as at this part of world, exchange woul make it no too accesible like for 'yankis'
anyway at Argentina our gov add about 35% for international transactions in USD with credit cards then after all we pay [at credit card extract] USD 12.99 + 35% then USD 17.53*
* after all, from here still is accessible
That's the reason why my Sims 4 version cannot be installed in English (and the translation leaves much to be desired). Outdoor Retreat here in Russia costs ~$12 (because of the cheap ruble).
