    That is pathetic, really. I mean, EA released 3 BUSHES? They're okay, but for $5? Not a chance. And then the compilation, it's on sale for pretty much the same amount of money (only $2 more!) it would cost to buy them separately, I'm sorry, but this is pathetic. I know that they have released a bunch of new stuff lately, and I wouldn't mind all of this, if it wasn't for the fact of the PRICES. Yup, pathetic.

    Compilation breakdown:

    Island Villa - 600 SP
    Tiki Outdoor Party - 1600 SP
    Tiki Living Room Set - 400 SP
    Tiki Dining Room Set - 200 SP

    2800 SP. Why is it 2600 on sale and 3500 without sale? :lol::lol::lol:

    Wow that's a great deal....I'll just spend more money to get the same thing. :lol: $5 for 500 sp I didn't realize sp in the US cost so much......It just pains me to think about all the money people have spent on me. :oops:

    Those bushes look nice but I think they're not worth 500 they should really be free. :roll:

    I'm certainly confused by the math on the compilation, unless there was supposed to be something else in there? Even adding the 500 for the bushes doesn't make the math work. :?: :?: :?:

    I actually genuinely believed that EA was getting better...

    Oh wow.

    So we have a simpoint bundle that is actually good value, but that's where it ends.

    We have three bushes for 500 SP (£1 per bush for us UK simmers) - better come with a footrub and back massage for that price.

    Then we have a compilation that you don't save money on...

    EA, thank you for the laughs you have provided me with tonight *HUGS*

    Surely this has got to be some kind of error? I'm not one to normally complain about store prices but even I can't justify 500SP for 3 plants. :/

    I can just imagine the sales pitch:

    *salesperson voice* "We'll sell our consumers 3 new plants that look much like the Base Game, WA and Ambitions Bushes that are included in those games. Except less bushy. And less pretty. And lopsided. All for only 5 USD!"

    Oh EA, how you fail us. *face palm*

    Well, the 500 SP for bushes seems plausible, I mean you had to buy the 7k point bundle to get the cacti last time, yes I know you get the simpoints with it, but still, it's quite the sacrifice.

    The compilation price has to be a jack-up though.

    I rater buy these bushes that way then... more for my money.... if it had been 4 bushes... then maybe....
    but if I see ingame pictures I might change my mind....



    still want to know more about the star fishs size

    It looks like the wishlists are currently down, so maybe they're fixing the prices or something.

    I hope so too. I bought up my quota for the next couple of months last week (I've even written on the calendar when I "can" buy more points, in an effort to stop me overspending!) but they are So. Very. Pretty...

    Hello everyone,

    There is an error on the pricing for the new Island Escape Compilation. We are very sorry about this and we are fixing it right now.

    If you purchased the Island Escape Compilation at the incorrect sale price of 2,600 SimPoints please contact EA Customer Support, they will give you a refund of 700 SimPoints.

    We are fixing the pricing on this compilation now, you should soon be able to purchase it at the correct sale price of 1,900 SimPoints.

    Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused, and happy Simming!

    ~ Sarah

    When I saw the bushes, I thought it was a joke of some sorts :D 500 SP will get you a nice premium item, 5 hair styles/couches/windows/doors, a bunch of dresses or smaller furniture items, etc. And they don't even look like hibiscus :D
