I was building my own and hardly usable version of a apartment when I was looking and browsing for those things - and where were they? Nowhere! So I though in my lack of knowledge 'maybe I can switch it to a community lot to find them', but of cause you can't! SO thanks you very much :D

@Stinagold did you enter buydebug?
You need to click cntr + shift + c
then type in "testingcheatsenabled true" and press enter
click cntl + shift + c again
and now type "buydebug on" and press enter
In your buymode now, under function, there should be a new tab with a ? as the icon. That's where you should find them
Hope that helps

All I can see in the buydebug mode is the trash chute, but no wall mailbox. I went through every other category item by item, included buydebug and still couldn't find the mailbox. Has it somehow been blocked or removed?

I don't see the mailbox either. Town Life stuff just came out, could that have changed some sort of reference that is making it non-visible? Before you tell me to look for it, i spent a good 20 minutes straining my eyes, and sorting by EPs.

Yeah, the mailbox isn't showing for me either. I have no idea why not. I'm not a newbie or anything.

Hey so I too am having the same issue, I have the package file in my mods folder, the trash chute is showing up in the debug folder not in the app/misc and no mailbox, So just to make sure Documents/thesims3/mods correct? Where all the other downloads go?

I also cannot find the mailbox. I found the chute just fine, it was on the first line in buydebug. No mailbox though. Very strange.

So after about 15 minutes scouring buydebug and the internet I see that the trash chute was added to buydebug with a patch. I still need the mail box though so does anybody know if this mod will cause conflicts, since we have the trash chute now?

All mods that override game files are technically creating conflict. =) I haven't tested, but I suspect that just because EA put this in the buydebug section they didn't make it deletable once placed. Plus, this mod MOVES it to where other trash cans are and out of buydebug.

When using this mod you should NOT be seeing the trash chute in buydebug.

The mailbox was showing up before I had to uninstall my games, now that I reinstalled games and the mods, this mod isn't working, only the trash shute is working, and yes I put them in my folder.

Hey, HugeLunatic, are you there? I'm another one whose mailbox hasn't shown up for several patches now. I desperately need one to finish my penthouse and rue whenever I accidentally deleted its mailbox months ago I might make a post regarding this issue on the forums to reach more people....Thank you for creating this item/mod to begin with, and thank you for whatever attention or help you can bring to this issue <3
