    It was official.

    Ok, I just got one of those lucky glitches then. Ever since then I've bought something at least every couple days so haven't had chance to test again.

    It does seem to be a bit glitchy (render at 11). I've let my BB-ness lapse two or three times during the month, but I'm fairly sure at least once it's lasted four days.

    Am I reading today's offer right? If we already bought the Dante, Starter, or Pro, we're limited to getting the extra 20% off ONLY to the newly mad? But people who buy those today get the 20% off the catalogs, which is a lot more choices?

    Or is that latter part that if we ALREADY own the Dante, Starter or Pro, we get the 20% off the catalogs if we buy a newly mad?

    Darn.  Fell asleep earlier without checking out.  Looks like I missed the discount on Dante 7.  :(

    The way it's written, you have to have a Dante7 product in your cart to get the extra 20%... BUT... I already bought a new release and KA's Iray Rain and the extra 20% was applied to the Featured Artist product.

    ETA: Not all featured artist catalogs are showing the extra discount. Hopefully DAZ will get it all straightened out soon.

    If you buy or already own Dante or bundles then you can get 20% off both newly mad AND artist catalogs. BUT in order to get the extra 20% off the catalogs you must also buy a newly mad item.

    Twilight Hair...

    The hair costs ($19.95) $3.49. Perfectly fine. Only 3 hair colours, but sure.

    If you'd like more than 3 hair colours (9 more!) Pay an extra  ($12.95) $3.49.

    Now if you want some more bones with 4 more morphs, pay an extra ($16.95) $2.79.

    That's a base price of $49 for a hair with 12 colours and some morphs (~$10 at PC+ pricing.)

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    If I wasn't a PC member, I would never buy a PC product.  Like you say, hairs routinely come with only 3 colours - whereas DO hair and PA hair come with a lot more...for about the same price (non-PC price I mean). Same with outfits.

    And the Last Review Viedeo for Week 5 Stuff:

    March Madness 2017 Week 5 Part 4: Iray Lights and FX for The Venezia Suite

    I'm currently trying to decide what to take on for Week 6 (the current Week)

    Any Wishes?

    Dante 7 Pro Bundle is going to come next week, since I don't have enough time this Week to create such a long Review.

    I'd love to see a review of the rodent products. I think it would be helpful to see Ronnie for G3M, too. His promo images all have those long shorts on and one can't see the legs above the knees. Willow Creek and SY Super Splash Pack Iray would also be appreciated. So... any of these would be great. Thanks for the opportunity to "vote"...

    And I'd just like to add how much I appreciate these videos. It's a really nice service you're providing.
    yes yes

    You can get some reviews of the rodent here: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/159711/having-problems-with-the-am-squirrel#latest

    I have Stonemason and Lyoness back catalog in my cart, along with the new HDRIs and Dante 7.  Utopia Cityscape is reading at 55% off so I don't think the additional 20% is applying. Same with LY Cayenne.

    ETA: DG Iray Sci-Fi Surface Lights Shader 2 from Related Items registers as 45% off despite having the above alongside.

    I wouldn't either. I feel bad for shoppers who don't know what PC+ is or don't want to join it. But also you need to remember that the discounted prices we get are based on the main price, so what we're told is 80% off is realistically only about 50% of an average PA hair.

    Also I forgot that those are the intro PC+ prices; they'll be higher afterwards.

    The extra 20% for featured artists products are not working for me with a new item in the cart and I purchased Dante already. It seems like you don't get the extra 20% off if you already purchased Dante which is exactly how the ad is worded and doesn't seem fair...

    Most of the featured Artists, actually. After you asked, I went back and put several items in the cart from each artist's linked catalog, along with a new release, and products from the following artists did not apply the extra 20%... even when I put the Dante 7 Starter Pack in the cart:

    Jack Tomalin, Fred Winkler Art, 3DCelebrity, Nikisatez, Umblefugly, Mada, Anna Benjamin, Capsces Digital Ink, Sabby, AprilYSH, Bobbie25, Design Anvil, Zeddicuss, Neikdian, Stonemason, Lyoness, Hinky Punk, Alessandro_AM, OziChick, EmmaAndJordi.

    All other discounts were working: Extra 20% on Newly Mad; Daz Original discount for PC+ members; 10% Bonus Buyer discount, or 30% BB discount for SKU less than 16000; 30% BB discount on RDNA products; 50% discount for two or more.

    I even refreshed the cart just before hitting the Post Comment button...

    That's not right. $3.49 for a texture addon? Textures usually run $2.09 at release and $2.99 after two weeks!

    Oh, Jack...?

    Hmm, that's right yea.. I didn't spot that when it went live.. fixing now, thanks.

    It's fixed already. I'm now seeing it at $1.88 in my cart. YMMV

    The wording is pretty clear, it says you must buy Dante with a newly mad release:

    "GET AN EXTRA 20% OFF** FEATURED ARTIST CATALOGS WHEN YOU BUY A NEWLY MAD NEW RELEASE TOGETHER WITH DANTE 7, DANTE 7 STARTER BUNDLE, or DANTE 7 PRO BUNDLE"

    Previous owners of Dante only get the extra 20% on Newly Mad releases, not featured artist catalogs. Which makes sense, as anyone who bought it yesterday already got it heavily discounted and had other discounts.

    If you bought it yesterday, Dante 7 Pro was only around $29, today it is 42.50 withi discount. You could always rebuy it today, and cancel your order yesterday, but I doubt it would make sense, unless the $13.50 in extra cost for Dante 7 would be made up in savings on Featured Artist Catalog savings today.

    I have an email saying that :

    Collective3d Portrait Vignettes Contemporary 5

    Normal price: $15.95
    100% OFF: $0.00

     So I clicked on it and put it in my cart. However the price in my cart is not $0 it is $10:05.

    Am I missing a trick here?

    @Wonderland, @DSDT... DAZ is playing fair. See the quote from Cris above.

    I checked all the PA catalogs, and most of them aren't applying the extra 20%, even with the Dante 7 Starter Pack in my cart. It's just another time where something wasn't quite set up right and we need to be patient while the techies fix it.

    It's the new PC Weekly Freebie - free to PC members, non members get it free with a purchase I think???

    If you're PC, try refreshing the cart...sometimes I get wrong prices in the cart and after refreshing, it fixes it.

    You need to reload the cart page. It's a Daz thing that the shown prices are lagging one pageload.

    EDIT: Oh, and you need to be a PC+ member to be able to get it for free alone, otherwise I think you get it for free along with another purchase (?).

    Well thats good to know. I think I'm sitting this out anyway, Dante 7 doesn't fill any needs that I don't have already with other characters. And I only have about $50 left in store credit and want to save it for the big End of MM sale, where hopefully I can pick up some of my must haves.

    Don't forget it's a new month so there are two freebies (the unused street thingy is the other one.)

    Membership is on sale right now. You can get the quarterly for only $14.40, or the annual for only $42.00... less any discounts you qualify for. My cart has a new release in it, among other things, and the memberships are showing a 55% discount, so only $10.80 quarterly or $31.50...

    If you want to renew, anyway...

    Also if you are a Bonus Buyer, you could save a bit more by purchasing a gift card first, at 10% off, and then paying for the membership with store credit...

    Anyway, lots of options...

    I bought one of the featured artist products which, with 40% and the BB discount came to $7 and then the Collective3D item was indeed free. So not a bad deal after all.
