I mean, sure you got to pick what you wanted instead of getting a pack it the coins conversion wasn’t cheap. I think the basketball hoop cost about $5 USD. Don’t really miss it.
I did like picking and choosing, but I also felt like it was more expensive. Maybe it's just because at the time I was rather broke?
I don't feel like this way is that bad though. I think stuff packs are more expensive than they should be for what is in them, but even the couple of times I have bought a pack for just 1 or 2 items (on sale), I did end up finding little surprises of things that I use more than intended when I bought the pack in the first place so I guess that's kind of nice? I definitely am a fan of the game packs. They have enough game play and stuff all combined in them for cheaper than a full expansion and I do end up getting a lot of use out of those.
If by store you mean the TS3 store, then no I don't miss it. They updated way too often and some of the items that brought new gameplay were only available to buy as a package with other things I didn't need or want.

I recall the excitement for the hourly sales - or was it daily - you had to check at a certain time, it was quite the thrill, yet a bit addictive. I bought lots of stuff from the store, some I loved and used a lot, other things I never really used.
I wish there's a store now! I see amazing builds that require objects from ECO living... But I will stay away from this pack.. Dont want any more bugs and the NAPS are not appealing to me at all or the voting feature... Dont like the new map either.. The only thing I wanted were the objects

100% no, I've been trying to find things on it as I have some leftover sim points and it really is severely lacking in good items. Most the nice worlds on there for some unknown reason can only be bought in a bundle for real money even though the store runs on sim points. It was an expensive mess.
Would like to see them to sell individual worlds again like they did on the store though, sometimes I just want a pretty world, I don't need an entire pack around it. For example I'd happily buy Brindleton Bay without Cats and Dogs, the world was the only reason I bought that pack.
Honestly I think it was a mess. The idea that you're after is great - don't get me wrong! I bought eg. Perfect Patio for just the hot tub. Have not used basically anything but some CAS items and that. Kinda expensive for max 5 items (and the CAS items I wouldn't miss if they were not available on my game).
absolutely hated the store and wish it never returns
mostly because it made everything super complicated
there was no reasonable payment methods that work in my country +things were super overpriced
they should just do better job on stuff packs tbh like they need to do styles of stuff we do not have yet instead of repeating same boring furnitures so it would make more sense
cause now its mostly just 2 gameplay items + random themeless stuff
Don’t miss it a single bit, people fear the Sims 5 introducing multiplayer means that it will also introduce micro transactions, Sims 3 didn’t have multiplayer but it sure had micro transactions.
