    Geez...I'm having trouble.  There are lots of items in the flashback sale, but nothing I want in today's offerings in order to get the discount.  The model poses are nice, but pretty much covered by about a dozen pose sets I already own.  The expressions are okay...some good ones, some scary faces.  (Where the heck the Z keep coming up with these names for pose sets?) The Lolita Dress and Hair, I already have several of that design and don't really want any more.  The hair is okay...but not a must buy for me.  The same goes for the weapons, spear poses and the room....  So...geez.  If Daz were to make it, "any new release," I could find a few things.  No disrespect to the PAs, but, I feel like I'm just putting duplicates in my cart to qualify for what I really want.

    Yeah, I feel the same way. But the math still works in my favor with two of the cheapest items from today's new releases. If I hadn't missed the i13 flash sale a few days ago, I probably would not find today's sale so good. But some of the items I wanted then are in this sale, so it's hoarding time. :) I wanted these so bad I even wrote to Daz and asked them to bring that sale back, LOL. :D Of course, they said they can't, and I should just keep my eyes open for future promotions. And here it is a few days later. Coincidence? Well, probably yes, but still nice timing. :)

    This is a super-nice sale, especially on other DO themed mini-sets.

    Hard blows to the wallet taken today.

    I'm glad I held back on Friday and Saturday.

    For once, patience has paid off, er so to speak.

    Some of the missed i13 items are back at 70% in the flashback sale. Nice selection of items, overall.

    Must have been a flashlight sale, don't see any sales banner?

    It's in today's main promo, at the bottom. This one: https://www.daz3d.com/0730-goldie-goes-gothic

    Oh, OK. Thanks.

    Mallorie doesn't seem to be working for triggering the discount.  Anyone else having the same problem?

    64 off from those four PAs.

    Okay, now that I'm not typing on a phone, I can write a bit more. laugh

    There are 159 items to choose from. We've seen bigger selections, true, but I personally have 12 wishlisted items from these 159, so I even have room to narrow it down to the ones that I plan to use in the next, say half a year. Flash sales are normally at 60% off (boy, I feel bad I had to sit out the i13 70% off sale due to lack of funds), so a 64% off is okay for me on these -- well, provided of course that the original price is not way too high to start with, but they're okay for the ones I chose.

    And I really hope that it truly is a weekend event, and the selection will stay the same (or grow) tomorrow because I'm not checking out just yet.

    I'm detecting some sarcasm; who really expects to use everything they've bought before the heat-death of the universe? cheeky

    Sat there thinking about using my Plat Club voucher. I'll be getting Benita regardless - a nicely done character; she's attractive and not cute - I'm overloaded with cute.

    If it's an item that I know I'm only going to use in two years, then why buy it now?

    Okay, "unlimited budget" may be an acceptable answer here ;) , but... yeah... not quite there yet... :)

    Hmmm

    I'm not sure what I'll be rendering in a few days time, and sometimes tomorrow; I suppose it depends on the project I'm working on.

    I've got a book series planned out a few books ahead, so I have a general idea of what I'll need. This gives me the time to get those items at hopefully the best price. My other main project is medieval, that's less planned ahead, so there's a little more worrying about prices going on there.

    Are you saying Mallorie by herself isn't triggering the discounts? Or do you have Mallorie and another of today's new release in your cart, and the two are not triggering the discounts? (The promo is the bundle or two items... so just checking.)

    ETA: I just tried it. Mallorie with another new release, (I used Model 101 Poses and Expressions for G8F,) does not trigger the discount... Richard...!?

    AACK! been holding back on purchases since i haven't jumped on the G8 bandwagon yet, but todays sale is killing me. Got at least 20 items from my wishlist in it. Might have to give this one some serious thought, hmmmmmm

    yeah, could care less about any of the new lolita/goth items in the sale, but $17 to get $50-$100 off, no brainer IMO

    "Get an extra 50% off this selection" --> and it shows one (1) item. laugh

    Well prices are always a worry; best bet there is not buy, until it hits the price you're looking for.

    That can work if you know you'll only need a certain item in a year or two. Then there's plenty of time for it to go on sale. "There's always another sale." :) If it's an item I need in two weeks, that's a different story. Then I might have to settle for a smaller discount, or even full price (don't remember this ever happening... :)).

    I've been chuckling at this for days, but with the previous promo gone and the two banners side by side, I couldn't help but grab a screenshot... It wouldn't be half as funny if the promo wasn't about "unique" places and people...

    Yes, needing it for a project can affect our buying decissions; good for Daz, bad for us. :)

    The "Best of the Boys" flash sale looks really good. I put all of the items from the sale that are on my wishlist into the cart. I had 41 items for $223.91, with a total savings of $745.95. Then I cleared my cart because I just spent all my money for the month on a new graphics card, lol.

  • y3kmany3kman Posts: 877

    How long do sales usually last? I swear one of my items in my wishlist had a 51% discount a few hours ago and now it's gone. I should've bought it at that time. Was it a pricing error?

  • sandmanmaxsandmanmax Posts: 992

    Argggggh! Best of the Boys is going to kill me! They must have trolled my wishlist because I wouldn't have ANY trouble finding 10 items. But I just spent my 3D  budget money yesterday.  crying

  • Griffin AvidGriffin Avid Posts: 3,884

    I can't get past 50 or 60% off even with ten items from that page in the cart.

  • Griffin AvidGriffin Avid Posts: 3,884

    I had to empty the cart and add only the items from that page FIRST.

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,208

    The last time there was a "male sale", the male selection wasn't that great, but this one is pretty good.
