    I'm with deathbycanon. I'm six months in and this is like a fantasy.

    When I started it was September so Christmas and New Year's Eve was excellent.

    Now, this March madness is building the foundation of my lifetime library. I was just saying that I can't imagine anything else grabbing my attention.

    I've put kraken and Octopus and Squid in the search engine several times since I've been on here. I actually bought a man-o-war just to get something for a particular story I have coming. And against all expectations, there is a real kraken in the store.- and it looks incredible. Plus, the new alien from Crocket- what an awesome time to be brand new.

     

    I wish they had better deals though, it's not bad for the year, but to shove it all in 1 month, who has money like that?

    Maybe it's time Daz created their own credit card. lol

    I got stuff in multiple genres so fortunately, unfortunately everything seems to fit.

    Even that new glas shader. i saw the email and thought, " I have to out that on a person and see what happens" That might be a superhero, a ghost character..a weapon effect that turns people to glass before they shatter....a new medusa monster effect....instead of stone.....

    Glass armor.....glass shield....swords....I already have a song featuring a glass dragon so...

     

    lol when I was learning about shaders I put them all on the dragon, the glass was fun, in jade he looked like a little statue, and in glass he sort of looked looked like ice....so many things to create.

    I've been here for a little over a year. Getting a good library built, and have found the sales to be great. There's a lot to choose from, and it's certainly distracting me from writing! Every day I can't wait to see what's new and what they did with their promo art, and...suddenly early morning writing time is gone! I've really enjoyed March Madness. Nice to know something good happens in my birthday month, and oh what a birthday month it's been. My bank account can't wait till it's over! It will take me years to render half the stuff in my product library.

    Part of it is sale fatigue; after getting pro bundles for less than $10, 50% off featured artist catalogues seems anticlimactic...

     

    I agee. I'm just over a year here, and I was picking up Pro Bundles for under $10 last March too... the after Thanksgiving and Christmas sales were insane also.

    But, I am glad there are some people who are getting a lot of value out of this sale. There is a lot of content in DAZ's library - not every sale can appeal to everyone. Sometimes it is real world stuff, sometimes it is fairies, sometimes it is Zombies or Werewolves and Vampires, others Sci-Fi. 

    I can't complain at all when I look at the total retail value of my content library compared to what I actually paid for it, over the last year. That is the real insanity. :)

    It *is* worth noting, and I keep missing this, that the terms for the bonus buyer plan seem to keep changing from day to day. You have to Expand the banner to see what has changed. 

    Today, it is an extra 30% on specific items from the horror category - which actually brings some items on my Wishlist down into buy territory. It isn't as incredible as sales in the past, but it seems every day or two they get a couple of items into a zone where it makes sense to pick them up.

    Actually, I am only seeing the 10% discount on the horror poses. I'm waiting on the %30 off to kick in. Can someone check that this is working?

    Do you have a new item in your cart as well?

  • GreybroGreybro Posts: 2,705

    I notice that the prices seem to be adjusted but they don't show the typical red graphic with the percentage off. Is anyone else having this experience? I originally got really excited thinking the dicount would come off the displayed prices.

    I don't but by the letter of the banner I do not need one, right?

    Apparently, that was the issue. I put the Paladin in there and the discounts kicked in.

    Ah right. Tricksy, tricksy saless...

    If you're interested in the Rundown Bedroom that is on deep discount to Bonus Buyers right now... 

    https://www.daz3d.com/rundown-bedroom

    It is a very versatile set with lots of material zones to play with. You could make it just about any kind of interior room your shaders and props would allow. Imaginary House did a great job on this one.

    Not sure if you have the sales plug-in for your browser, but this has been on sale for both $4.74 and $4.61 within the last 6 months. Its a DAZ Original, so it goes really cheap quite often.

    And that's why I always check out my Wishlist as well as the sale banners whenever I visit the store. Anything that suddenly comes up with a non-standard sale percentage deserves further clickage to investigate; sometimes there are extra deal conditions that give an even better price.

    I can tell from your enthusiastic posts about sales, LOL I remember some of my first sales here at DAZ and was like "how much??!! you have got to be kidding!!". My first year in the PC was pretty exciting also.

    12 years in now and some years I get some deals and nice stuff, other years i don't, but I know it will all eventually be on sale again and again

    Well, I guess a Fast Grab change is not happening before the weekend, bummer, the Fast Grabs have been great lately.

    And if not you still get the standard 10% discount on gift cards during the rest of MM (just purchased one myself yesterday).

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    I do have the plugin, and I checked the sales history. I didn't see it going anywhere near that low in the history, so that must have been a combination of stacking that I missed during those sales. That sucks.

    ​Still, I'm happy with the purchase based solely on the product's flexibility.

    I got both it and Rudown Apartment for $3.46 each on 15 Dec during the Christmas sales.

    I know, but it seems Fast grabs rarely change on Fridays. If they don't change on Thursday, then they usually stay the same until Monday especially during special sales.

    I'm not a fan of orcs in my own work, but seeing what YOU do with orcs, I'm hoping for your sake there will be an orc sale someday soon. :) I love your orc renders!

    hmmm some of the sale prices aren't working correctly. 

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,208

    The prices are not fully reflecting what the promo says, but when they will, today might be an expensive day... :D
