Seasons CDkeys Issue

So, I tried pre ordering seasons today from CD keys since it has a good price. I even got a code for 5% off. However, when I pre ordered, the purchase went through, I was charged for it, but the pre order did not. I contacted their support, and they told me there was some technical error so they had to issue me a refund and gave me a code for an additional $9 off. I tried pre ordering again, but now I can't even do that as everytime I do I get the message "PayPal gateway has rejected request. Payment has already been made for this InvoiceID" I have tried everything from changing my Paypal settings, to changing browsers, trying to purchase on my phone. Nothing is working. My only form of Payment I can use is Paypal. Has anyone here ever encountered this? What can I do? I can't try other payment methods, as I don't have a credit card or skrill account. Paypal is the only option I have.

Hey, Nana..
It’s separate from Origin. Once the product is released you are emailed the valid product code to redeem in origin for download.
I pre-ordered cats and dogs. You should get an email straight away with a link in it that will take you to the download. But it'll just say something along the lines that the download will be available on the 22nd. (Or whatever day it is released.)
Hope you get it sorted. I intend on doing the same with seasons.

Yes, they are legit and trustworthy. They've been around for a while now.
They are a legit source. I’ve bought from them before and it was a smooth experience. They tend to have lower prices than your standard retail outlet or Origin/Amazon, the pricing varies pack to pack though.
Indeed. I used to always buy Sims games from third-party retailers, but my most recent purchase resulted in a chargeback and the game in question being removed from my Origin library, so now I don't think I'll bother - and I'm definitely not paying £35 for it. I'll just wait until it goes on sale/gets bundled/gets cheaper overtime as every other expansion pack has (even Cats and Dogs is now only £21 on Amazon so I might just buy it).
Hey, Nana..
which is why I don't want a paypal account. Like the OP I'm in Canada and I had to use InstantGaming to buy bundles to get packs and I'm STILL waiting to get Laundry day. There apperently is a new Option through Origin which is Interact and all that's need is one Zip code/Postal Code
Eh, it's okay - you live and learn! Yeah, I can see why people want to buy it immediately - the temptation is there, I have to admit. Seasons is looking like the best pack yet for TS4.

I bought many Stuff Packs, Game Packs, and Expansion Packs through them. I got Steam games there and even Battlefield 4. I never had a problem even with preorders. They're a legit business and its a great place to save money on select products. Be aware things can go out of stock and not everything gets restocked.
2. The Sims 3
3. The Sims 4 (5 years later its decent)
4. The Sims 1
Except this makes no sense. The key you are given doesn't come with purchase history. There is no way once given and used that origin would have any idea that a given key was charged back unless bought from the system. Cdkeys and other websites don't buy the keys from origin they buy them wholesale from ea.
I don't think Seasons will got out of stock (well besides maybe hard copies) as from my understanding, they are giving us the origin code for the digital download once the item is checked out and paid for (or I think they will send it through email on the day of release). I am guessing it depends on the game though.
