There's always another sale ... but some sales are better than others.
Stuff on Fastgrab is 70% off, Flash and Blink sales are now typically 60% off, 'related items' sales seem to be around 45% off. Some older content goes for 80% off or even more, but it's usually stuff that is pretty long in the tooth -- mostly V4 and M4. Stacking coupons sometimes drive prices down past the Flash/Blink level of 60%, particularly on DAZ Original content, particularly for PC+ members ... but sometimes stacked discounts can be hastily revoked when DAZ wakes up to the fact that they've inadvertently priced something at 95% off.
In the past, the fall sales and March Madness have tended to offer discounts of around 50% off. As a rule, doing better than 50% outside Fastgrab or Flash/Blink often comes with some extra strings attached -- you have to buy something else, or already own something else. Or you have to participate in one of DAZ's complicated 'punch' schemes which ends up with you buying a lot of additional content to get a better discount.
Overall, my impression is that Fastgrab/Flash/Blink offer the best discounts for most content. So if you see something that you know you want at 60% or better, my advice would be to pull the trigger and not to wait for the spring or fall sales.
Be warned that there seems to be something squirrelly with prices on DAZ Original content just now.
Some of the DAZ stuff in Fastgrab showed up at 30% off, rather than 70% off, when I first loaded the page. That seems to be fixed now, but when I put a PC+ item into my cart, it came in at $11.87, rather than the $3.49 that it should have been.
So double-check prices before you click the Buy button, just to make sure.
Peter Fulford, you can edit on an iPad by clicking the quote button in your own post and then the edit icon will appear! I discovered this by accident, but it works!

There's a PC+ email offering this one for 99c if you buy another PC+ item. Comes out cheaper than the Fast Grab price.
No, it's this one http://www.daz3d.com/platea-pergo that's the PC+ 99c item - the add-on set for the one in Fast Grab.
Aargh, sorry for bad info (rushed). Can't edit posts on this iPad thing so rubbish will have remain until tonight.

Ati should just have http://www.daz3d.com/fast-grab-3d-models/ as a signature link so I don't have to scroll up to the shop button v.v

Signature is reserved for something else, but I could copy the link in the post...
That works
Oh man! What a deal! Ahhhhh That's probably the cheapest it's going to be for quite some time. Sadly I'm really broke right now. :( Poop
Ah well, if it's meant to be I'll find a way. :)

Thanks for the heads-up, Ati.
fdjlkfs somehow this thread stopped notifying me again.
...happens a lot to me.
Then for some reason I get a a bunch of notifications for an old thread that hasn't been active for months or even years.
