As I am a player who only started the game about under two years ago, I'm just wondering how much of the older items that were removed/limited/event prizes/items have appeared for people via a Mystery Box or so kind of other method. I've managed to earn about 4 to 5 Fortune Mystery boxes and while I have earned some of the previous items, I don't seem to be getting a lot of the items from earlier in the game. So I was just wondering what were some of the rarest/oldest items the game has offered to anyone in the past but ended up gaining via a Mystery Box.
I'm not fussed on the whole earn-keys-for-mystery-box system as I don't think we earn enough from them. The amount of time we have to give in order to gain six keys for the Fortune box can be difficult for a player who doesn't play the game hourly like they seem to want us too. We only get one rare item from that box - it should be more than that like three rare items or something like that. But I suppose that I probably have a different perspective because I haven't played the game as long as a lot of others have.

When you say older items what do you mean? From what years?3luv4eva3 wrote: ↑14 Jan 2019, 08:29 As I am a player who only started the game about under two years ago, I'm just wondering how much of the older items that were removed/limited/event prizes/items have appeared for people via a Mystery Box or so kind of other method.

In general, a good thing to do is check out the opening post and see what events the prizes in your Mystery Box Shop are from. The OP has the dates (I think some of the more recent repeats may be missing) all the different events have repeated. It might give you and idea on whether it's worth it to try and go for the Mystery Box Shop or just wait for the events the prizes are from to repeat.
From taking a look at my test game where I purposely don't complete anything within the time limit none of the prizes are from 2015 and earlier. There's main and discovery quest prizes, prizes from the Teen Life hobby event, prizes from the Urban Furniture event, prizes from the baby onesies event, prizes from the Animal onesies event, the gingerbread furniture, the furniture from the Prince and the Pocket-sized princess community event, items from the SimTown Day spa community event, and items from the Dance Party live event.

Re: Removed Items, Limited Time Items, and Event Prizes
Found this crib when I was looking through some nursery ideas, and later spotted it while looking this thread.
When and where was this crib available (obviously a long time ago since I've never seen)? Has it come up again since? Will it appear again?

Re: Removed Items, Limited Time Items, and Event Prizes
It's called "Luxury crib". I have several in inventory. Per a search of this site, it was a prize in the 2012 Christmas quest. I got mine in about 2015 when it was available for a short time. Perhaps around Mother's Day?
