attempting to buy this dlc, but instead of the usual buy button, i get the install to button as if i already own this dlc. i do own the game, but i never bought this dlc. how can i buy it? it's more expensive on 360 storefront, but i want to take advantage of this discount

okay putting on my wishlist says i own it... but i don't. i never bought it, i was never charged for it, and I can't download it to my 360

Are you trying to download the dlc on a Xbox 360 console. I just checked the store page of the dlc and it says its only playable on Xbox one or Series X/S consoles.

but it wasn't previously downloaded. it wasn't even previously bought. that's the problem, because now I can't buy it legitimately

#

it only shows as bought on the modern storefront, not the 360 store

#

the modern storefront has a sale on both dlcs, but the 360 storefront does not

Maybe try looking at your order history just to confirm its not on their. Only thing I can suggest is trying to contact Xbox support.

#

i have heard frequent references to it being possible but i have never found out how to do so myself

#

and no, it's not in my order history

#

no email receipt either

#

Start with the virtual agent

Oh I see, you don’t want a call.
Talking to someone directly is what 99% of people want to do lol.
There is no text message option.

#

“Message a gamer” is silly and shouldn’t exist imo.

But being able to talk directly to an employee who has access to your entire account is, in my opinion, the fastest way to get anything complicated accomplished.

im sure this random gamer doesn't have any bad intentions especially since they're taking the time to help, but im not the most comfortable with random strangers knowing my real first name

#

damn, i tried thinking outside the box and it didn't work

i opened an incognito tab to add both to a cart while signed out, and signed in at checkout. but 2 weird things happen: it says i get this for free as part of a subscription (i am not subscribed to any xbox subscriptions) and every time i choose checkout it loops back to the same page

#

this just keeps getting weirder and weirder

#

at least i can confirm sam lake himself is trolling me, the main game was on sale for 6.59 which i bought with no trouble, only to immediately go on discount again after that one ended for 4.99, so i wasted money by not having foresight

You need to talk to official support.

#

yeah i know

#

i just hate real calls im never comfortable with them

#

im also worried there just gonna go "you can only buy on 360 storefront" which is absolutely not true as i have done this many times before
