I've gotten all of mine at either Best Buy (a few years ago), or Amazon.

I was lucky to find a most of my eps at Walmart, but they sadly do not carry anything but the Sims3 now, the local video game store had a few as well. Surprisingly I was able to find the last few I was missing (other than the Holiday pack as of yet) on Kiji if that helps...

About a year ago, amazon had half the stuff packs for under 7 dollar. I just quickly checked the site and the sp cost more now, but several of the eps are listed at a good price. This is the American amazon though.

Going with Fivey and saying that in some cases, I'm pleading the fifth. o_o" Most times I just got them from the local games store, preordered . . . most times . . .

I'm from England, but I got mine on Ebay. It was only a few months ago.

A combination of Amazon, Ebay (around Christmas time), and my brother's friend.
Mostly Amazon though.

PS. I found Apartment Life really difficult to find so keep an eye out if you really want that!

Default I'm Getting Desperate--Where do You Get Your The Sims 2?
I google'd it so I can get another the sims 2 base game, but all that really comes up is amazon and my mothers says she can't buy it under her account because she can't remember her password.
The only place I can find is amazon ; are there any other sites (aside from eBay!)? Where did you get yours from? Is this the end? I'm freaking out here!

Depends what country you live in really! Also, depending on where you live, have you tried looking in shops that sell second-hand games? I got a few of the Stuff Packs that way. Or you may be able to find it on eBay. Or your mum could reset her password or set up a new account on Amazon! :-)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! OH GOD NOOOOOOOOOO! UGH!

I'm sorry, but I had to shout it out! Do you know how many threads there are about this subject? And I have requested a sticky thread for the same topic but no luck!

Back to the topic:

Did you try Ebay? Some EPs and SPs may be used but are still in good shape, be careful though, since the used ones can have CDs that are scratched a lot to an extent where the CD doesn't work anymore. Seriously, if it's scratched and doesn't work, why sell it?

Gimme a link to the old one, and I'll sticky it for you and merge this- I've noticed a proliferation of these, too.

You need to be sure you write when you are using Google search that you want to buy Sims 2 original base game. It will take you to EBay I saw plenty of them there very cheap for as litte as 9.00 dollar.

Okay, I merged two and closed the others- so this is now the official thread for talking about this. And I put it in the popular threads, okay?

You can buy a lot of Sims games at www.marktplaats.nl. Although it is a Dutch site, so you have to speak Dutch.

It feels like amazon is the only option then...*hmph* well, I guess beggars can't be choosers. Somehow, I'll have to convince my mom that amazon's the only site...

Wait does the Sims 2 Fun with Pets run well with the Sims 2 Deluxe?

Yes it does! Double Deluxe is compatible (and runs pretty well) with all of the collection packs, EPs, and SPs.

I recently got back into the Sims2 and had to buy FreeTime and Apartment Life as I left the Sims community just after BV came out. I could barely play it on my old computer. So two months ago I got FT and AL right after each other on Ebay. But there was half.com as well (part of Ebay) and Amazon. I found a few that were sealed still and not used.

There's not a thing wrong with Amazon. It's a great site, and as with all great sites, there's a way to recover or reset forgotten account passwords. Check the sign-in page.

I don't have a problem with it--my mom does. She feels it's too complicated; that they changed the way it works too much. And plus her computer's slow, so she refuses to use amazon. She wanted me to look up other sites where she can just 'click and buy' so to speak, but as you can tell, there are barely any sites left that have the Sims 2. My mom doesn't like Ebay, most store sites don't have the base game, and most stores don't sell the Sims 2 either over by where I'm at.

Offer to do the "driving" yourself, then she won't have to fuss with it.
