    Check out Nikisatez's store. Stuff in both sales so some outfits are 83% off. It's not a glitch.

    In the Daz sale, hair can go as low as slightly over a dollar, with a new release.

    Well, while I'm abstaining from the paltry 30% off, I'm making an exception for Kindred Arts Iray Glassworx. Genius! Now I can have rainy day scenes without having to go outdoors to do it! (Lazy me.)  Looking at the work that went into that, for under $14 it's totally worth it IMO. I'm only buying things I will really USE at the 30% off, and this is one that will be used a lot. Into my cart it went!

    And I just had to find out about this after buying all my Daz Originals for the day. *scream*

    The promo says 50%-60% on PAs catalogs. I see only 50%. Is that 60% something PAs are deciding on or is it connected to having a new release in the cart - which I do?

    Daz Originals are 65% off. I don't see anything at 60% off from today's list. Or anything from day 2... :) Day 1 has a lot of items at 60% off: https://www.daz3d.com/daz-summer-sale-featured-artist-catalogs-day-1

    The 60% is by release date, as is the DO discounted set. Today's sale wasn't set correctly but now is.

    Okay, now I see several 60% off items on the Day3 list.

    will there be a summer sale ketchup?

    gia 7's sale price yesterday is over to(pay)day, and the other stuff in my cart.  sighhh

    I bet Memorial Day (Monday) will be an all-store sale, probably with staggered discounts. 40% on non-'new' 2017, 50% on yadda, 60% on yadda yadda, 70% on ancient stuff. New stuff will of course stay at 30% or none.

    So what's the 'best' shopping strategy?

  • Griffin AvidGriffin Avid Posts: 3,815

    Only get the giftcard today?

    I don't think the deals will be any BETTER later; they'll just be aimed at the people who only check the site on holidays. But if one has the budget, picking up a big card and then using it to get some of the new releases is a good plan. Heck, if you have the funds available, it'd be worth picking up 3 months of budget just to save oneself from stress over the 'buy X and get 9% off a gift card' deals they like so much.

    ETA: (I suspect the gift card discount will be the only way to get 40%ish discounts on new releases up to the fall Big Sales.)

    Some of the PC+ items are at a great price today. I got the Alien Module for $0.28, for example.

    Are the featured PA store discounts working right? They say 50-60% off, looks like that requires a new release purchase from the sale. I have that in my cart. I'm seeing 50% but not 60%. The discount doesn't change whether I have a new release in there or not.

    I don't think it's supposed to change. Some artists are 50% off, some are 60% off.

    Sort day 3 items ( https://www.daz3d.com/daz-summer-sale-featured-artist-catalogs-day-3 ) by %off, and you'll quickly see the 60% off items.

    Quick question. What happens if I try to put Geneis 1 hair on a Genesis 3 figure?

    I have a product that has hair for BOTH genesis  and Genesis 2 figure. I picked the Genesis 1 hair version and it went on (looks fine) with no pop up dialogs or weird loading screens.

    I don't remember this being possible in the past. Ahh there it is, when she takes a new pose, the hair doesn't follow. I guess that was the problem in the past.

    So after pairing, it's all good. I do NOT remeber this working before. Have I gone mad?

    1) the hair might be parented like a prop, in which case all is good (though more extreme morphs may result in pokethrouhg)

    2) the hair may not have "fit to" which is something I'm noticing increasingly with Genesis 1 products, even when fitting to Genesis 1.  So while it looks fine loaded in, it isn't actually fit to the character and therefore isn't going to move with the character/adjust to morphs.  In which case you'll have to do that (on the properties tab)

    Bug maybe? They're still right in the cart...for now.

    All of them, until they're in the cart.

    https://www.daz3d.com/western-town  https://www.daz3d.com/bank-vault

    Click either of these then click the artist link: https://www.daz3d.com/polish  Poof only two items for game dev licenses. I'd say more but then the thread would disappear.

     

    Likewise, the catalog shows Darkseal's Centaur but if you go to the product page and then click the Artist link, there are no items.

    These are the times when I would not dare check out. :D Maybe if I only use store credit.

    They must be adjusting something, because when you search for Polish's items by name, they show up in the search and the products are there. No discounts though. I thought he was in the recent sales.

    EDIT: Discount is working when you put his items in the cart. 

    Whatever, I can't keep up with the glitches any more.

    Yeah. Something's broken. Even the PC+ items in today's category are showing full price in the listings. Odd.
  • OverdrawnOverdrawn Posts: 580
    Yeah. Something's busted. I just loaded today's sale page in a browser I don't usually use... and the page is completely empty: https://www.daz3d.com/featured-daz-originals-from-2013-2014 Says: "There are no products matching the selection." That's with me logged out...fwiw.

    Phew! My shopping cart was safe. Best to get it while you can instead of waiting. "Adjustments" might not go the way you want. I start with the biggest discount (if I want that item), since that is probably the best price you'll ever get for it. Can't buy them all at once anyway, so the rest can wait...

  • mtl1mtl1 Posts: 1,508

    Yeah, store's busted. Time to play Gwent until things are back up ;)

  • FauvistFauvist Posts: 2,219

    Zero.  Nothing.  Empty.  There is nothing showing up in the 60% discount DAZ Originals sale.

  • NorthOf45NorthOf45 Posts: 5,690

    FastGrab is empty, too.

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,182

    Slowly starting to come back to life. At least the prices.

  • LlynaraLlynara Posts: 4,772

    I managed to check out okay. Maybe before the rest of it broke? LOL

  • duane_moodyduane_moody Posts: 132

    I still don't have the other roughly 300 items in my wishlist that disappeared.

    I haven't synced my wishlist to your extension, can I get it back if I do or will it just delete them there too?

    Sounds like somebody's Memorial Day Weekend holiday came to a grinding halt, at least until the store is fixed.  Kudos to whomever his working their tail off fixing this, very much apprecaiated!

    I still say that it might not be a bad idea to upgrade the store software, as the current package seems to be struggling every now and then.  Of course, that would require a significant investment of time and resources.

    I did my purchase a few hours ago, so I didn't have any issues.  I did notice that the Centaur sale gift card discount is now it's own thing and not part of the Female Centaur 7 sale.

    There was one bundle which I was watching that was discounted a bit more last weekend, but I picked it up anyways at the higher price and gave Daz a few extra dollars.  That should pay for someone's cheeseburger lunch or something!
