    I wasn't around last year, but I'm happy with the sales so far.  My wallet wishes I weren't so happy with it, lol.  Am interested to see upcoming BYOB sales too.

    Wow, those two TangoAlphas are an amazing deal via PC+. 

    ?

    What am I missing?

    Jackson’s Field and the Medieval Hall are now PC+ items which makes them super cheap for some large, versatile sets.

    @ati  I don't know, but I'm missing it with you LOL!  We must already own it?

    It would be Jackson's Field and Medieval Hall and Garden. They're PC items.  Edit- cross post, dreamweaver's answering while I'm looking it up.

    Some of the newly PC+ items are listed as new, others, including these, are not. Oh boy, this is going to be a huuuuuge mess.

    Oh, I thought it was a glitch when I saw them so cheap and jumped on it before it got "fixed." XD Guess it wasn't a glitch, but I'm still happy I hit that buy button (never did hit that button quite as fast as this time).

    It might've been a glitch and you got lucky. I can't seem to get it to show the discount.

    Neither of those are showing PC+ prices for me.

    The prices seem to be okay now. The sort order is still chaotic.

    Well, they aren't increasing the PC+ membership price to keep up with inflation, so that's a bonus.

    And they do offer orange banners on occassion to long time members. Plus free mega pack bundles for pc+ members (many of which have used daz for a long time).

    I can't complain. :)

    We do what we can.. thanks.  This month alone sees an additional 4 freebies (new items) on top of the 40 included in the mega freebies, and the BYOB's etc, I'm sure everyone will get something out of it.  If that's not worth the money to you, then I'm not sure what else I can do to help :) 

    Enjoy the sale :)

    It's not just about "not worth the money" it's about the fact that not long ago you guys gave 50% off to non-PC members. If you can't give that price again during the PC+ sale, then at least discount the 3 month membership. :( If it stands this way, I will definitely not be renewing my membership and can't participate in the sale. 20% off is kind of slap in the face after non-PC members got 50% off not that long ago.

  • dreamfarmerdreamfarmer Posts: 2,128

    I don’t remember this 50% off. Was it a glitch?

    Based on the current sale prices and the 20% discount, I'm not at all enticed to join PC+. Hugely disappointed.

    Ditto. $56.00 to join ...means I'd have zero money to spend during the sale. We had much better Membership discounts last year. I'm hugely disappointed. I was really looking forward to the PC+ sale and now it looks like I won't be participating... 

    That actually sounds like the price it was last year. I just checked my orders:

    • 10/15/2016- annual membership renewed at $56
    • 12/31/2016 - annual membership renewed at $24. That was an insane deal!
    • 4/8/2017- annual membership renewed at $42.

    My membership won't be expiring for a while! 

    My original annual membership price was $10.  I keep hoping to see that again.

    I don't really expect to see it that cheap, although it would be nice, but it really gets me that days before my membership expired they offered it at 50% off to non members only now its just 20% off.

    I've been a member for years but obviously they really don't care about their long time members guess they feel that they've had our money so we don't matter anymore and we can see how the membership perks have dissapeared gradually over the years, its still worth it for many but I really have to question whether or not I need it.

    Honestly, I think if Daz really wants to be fair on the price of PC+ renewal, they'd just look at how much you spent over the past year and adjust accordingly.  i.e. anyone spending over $500 in a year, automatically renews at half price, $750 at 75% off, and anyone spending over $1000 in the previous year would auto renew for free.  Just my take on it.  It might even encourage lower spenders to buy a little more to get the annual membership discount.  Folks who don't spend much could still take advantage of an introductory deal, but would have to regularly use their account in order to qualify for the discounted renewal.  Believe me, there are many of us on here that Daz would make money by giving us lifetime PC+ accounts for free...(hangs head in embarrassment).

    On 9/30/2016, during the big GC glitch sale, they were almost that low. $14 for 1 yr PC membership, I bought 2 at the time on different orders.

    A few items by Souless Empathy just went to PC club status and I didn't notice it mentioned anywhere, or maybe I missed it, but this bar interior that I've had my eyes on for sometime just dropped to $2.09.

    No - it was as advertised.  Non-PC members could buy a membership at 50% off.  PC members were excluded from renewing at that price (even if about to expire).  Felt kind of mean as membership is supposed to have its priveleges (which it does, but then we don't expect detriments). Edit: Which I'm sure wasn't their intention - they just figured: "Hey, let's attract some non-PC members who wouldn't pay the regular price to the PC+"

    Still - I'm happy with the sale so far.  I only had one item in the free bundle so I got quite a bit :)

    Yes, I believe it was an attempt to attract the people who really don't like subscriptions of any kind.. the real hard-line sceptics.

  • BYOB!!  Got 8 items for $2.99 - including parkside trainage, underground station and the lighthouse

    Fair enough.

    And what does Daz plan on doing for existing members who now feel marginalized by the several discounted membership offers last summer that members couldn't take advantage of?

    The Daily Spotlight items - is the "extra 20% with purchase of a new release or still new release" working for others?

    +1

    Their refusal to A) give a better PC+ yearly membership discount or B) at least discount the three month membership is going to bite them in the bottom. I'd LOVE to be spending money on the PC+ sale right now, but I'm not going to spend $56 for a membership or purchase a 3 month membership at full price.

    That's really for marketing for decide.  I do my best to make the PC as attractive as possible, to justify even the full price of admission.    Currently the annual memberships, even at 20% off, works out at $4.67 a month.. which is less than the cost of the coupons and freebies etc.

    It's not working for me.

    Also, the link to TheDarkerSideOfArt is wrong. It comes up with a 404 error. The correct link is https://www.daz3d.com/thedarkersideofart-812, if anyone needs it before the poor tech guys can get the page fixed.
