    I worked in a retail computer store, all the sales guys were young men under 25. A very attractive woman, probably mid 30s, came in, and asked if she could show her our hard disks. 

    Only her tongue tripped over the order of the S and the K. 

    We were all very amused, she was aghast. :) 

    So it isn't just typos you've got to watch out for. :) 

     

    Did you mean to type "WE could show her..." (grins)

    LOL! Yes, I did!

    Something odd happening (again) — I've noticed "newly PC+" items that fall off the sale page are vanishing altogether. A handful of "Creepers" low-poly creepy-crawlies appeared a couple of days ago, but I'd just bought stuff and wasn't ready to pick up another cartful just yet. The Barn Spider just turned up, so I went looking for the others. No sign of them. Are they still in the store? Was this (unlike every other PC+ item ever) just a one-off "buy now or it's gone" offer?

    There was a problem with not being able to download them and they were removed from the store until it could be resolved. It is unknown if or  when they may return:

    Awwww Man, I JUST bought the Goldie Locks Hair and Mallorie because the bundle went off sale.  I even used my coupon on them.  Then today, 2 days later, the bundle is back on sale for $2 cheaper than before.  And the outfit by itself, still isn't discount by the same amount.  Talk about bad timing.

    File a ticket, I'm sure CS will help you out :)

    Thanks, Jack....just did.  James in CS has always been really helpful.  So, probably NP.  I was just lamenting about making the purchase jump exactly on the wrong day...LOL  A day either direction and I would have had  the best sale price on the bundle.

    If you can afford to do so, go ahead and get the bundle today, and put in a ticket with Customer Service for a refund of the purchase price for the two products purchased separately. Your refund will be Store Credit unless you request otherwise, and they are amazingly quick about it, most of the time.

    Yeah, my biggest issue is that I used my PC Coupon on them.  So, the invoce probably looks like I spent even less on them.  Anyway, I put in a ticket.  I'm sure they'll work it out.  Honestly, I'd be fine if they just gave me the outfit to make up the rest of the bundle...save some trouble on figuring out the coupon allowance...etc.  That's all I wanted anyway. :)

    Remind them that you used your coupon and they'll reset it, so you can use it on another order or they'll subtract it from the other items if it still applies.

    I know, I know, but still... If it's $15.95, then it shouldn't say $0.35 on the main promo.

    lol When where comics 35 cents? Shesh, I don't think they've ever been that cheap in my lifetime. 

    Edit - Ok, I had to look that up. Looks like comics haven't been 35 cents since 1978 - so before my time. lol Compare that to comics today - $4 - $5.

    This is nice, but it has no intro discount, and shows up as a really old item when sorted by "new arrivals."

    Before your time buying comics, or being born? In 1978, I received my Masters Degree. I'm not exactly a spring chicken.

    What is up with those bent window shutters on several windows? Doesn't look right, even if such a thing exists, they are not hinged across the middle, its like they just took the normal shutter and bent it.

    Having one of those days... I log out, I can see the free characters... I log back in, they all disappear... I log back out, I can see them again... 

    Then I realize, it is because I own all the free characters already - so today is another loyalty-punishment day from the DAZ sale. :D :D :D

    Yup... I recall $.15 comics, and I bet I even have a couple in my collection with $.10 price tags, that my older sister's boyfriend gave me.

    +1 I can't see any either; but it is a good bargain for the newer members.

    Of course, wages were a lot lower then. I got minimum wage on my first job at a grocery store in 1967 and it was $1.25 per hour.

    Youngster. I remember nickle candy bars, 7¢ popsicles, and "penny candy"... Bins of bubble gum, jaw breakers, Jolly Rancher, candy with names I don't remember... Anyone recall those "necklaces" with candy beads strung on elastic? I think those where in the 5-10¢ range, too.
