Not To Worry, Friend, "There's Always Another Sale™"

  • WEB DESIGN MAJOR FAILURE (AGAIN) ALERT — the web design team didn't learn from the huge mistake they made last time (I think it was March Madness), the holiday sale page has a big unscrollable chunk for the sale section buttons, masking off the top third of my browser window. I thought we'd told them loudly enough not to do this again?

    Can we please have a mass trouble ticket from everyone, telling them to stop making low-usability sale pages?

    The freebie section on the sale page, the Holiday Freebie... is empty. Or is that just me?

    Edit: Never mind, it was me. My computer was being evil again.

    Yes! They're doing the loyalty rewards again this year. Extra discount for the whole month, the more you've spent, the bigger the discount. There goes the rent money...

    Yeah, no joke. I thought this wouldn't start for another 10 days at least. I wonder what the highest discount is. Mines pretty good and I didn't even spend that much this year.

    Not just you.  I thought it was probably something I already owned and logged out to check... still nothing.
    I'm sure they'll get it sorted out soon enough.

    Last year it ranged from 5% to 30%. (Applies to promotional sales only, not the whole store.)

    Nice.  Thank you for the link, and thank you Denki Gaka for the HDRI's :)  (I'm sure there will be an official Thank You thread starting up, but I'm going to bed now... if I can extract myself from underneath the boneless cat...)

    Just "bought" it. No way to download it. Maybe tomorrow.

    It's not your evil computer this time.  For a while the Holiday Freebie was not showing up.

    Same, even though it's listed as a manual download, there's nothing to actually d/l.

  • Picked up the freebie - but not seeing a download link in my library (no 'install types' listed on the sales page either).

     

    Seeing the same bothersome block at the top of the sales page - can we please have that collapsible?

     

    But in other news - thanks for the extra discount :)

    the last one on the sale page, the "Owners of any Featured Genesis 8 Character above get these Featured Previous Generation Genesis Add-ons for 60% OFF" doesn't seem to be working correctly. I do own Olympia 8 who is in the "Featured Genesis 8 Characters", but when I put one of the last sale items in my cart, I don't get anywhere near 60% off the price. Can anyone else check this and see if it's just me misunderstanding the sale, or if it is borked?

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    i think the freebie is a PA Christmas freebie, like last year, that kinda has nothing to do with daz, other than them putting it on the page for us. When I checked out with it, there was a link to go to download it as it is not downloaded the normal way.....and then I closed the tab and lost it. LOL

    An extra 25% off every "Rewards Sale" purchase until the end of the month!? AWESOME! Thank you, Daz!! :D

    And thank you Denki Gaka for the great freebie! laughyes (Has anyone figure out how to download it yet?)

  • But they're putting it on their main sale page, not the forum.

    I would have assumed it was licensed under Daz. This is not cool. I wouldn't have seen that except that I was looking for a way to download it.

    Yeah, I'm getting this too. Only my loyalty reward discount is being calculated, not the 60% for owning one of the featured G8 characters.

    ok good, then it's not just me :)

    Paging @richardhaseltine, @chohole, @cris ! :) :)

  • Well, it's not a real freebie when you have to attribute the artist if you use it. The freebie shows up in my purchase history and in the Daz official store, which would make anyone think that it falls under Daz licensing. I'm going to request that Daz takes it off my account.

  • Freebie links have been reported.

    I followed the link to the order page and clicked the blue manual download button. It took me to my Product list entry for the item. But no way to download.

  • For any other issues, please make sure 1) you wait till at least 1/2 hour after midnight, 2) relog, 3) refresh, thanks.

    Can we feed the items after midnight? And what happens if they get wet?

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    i think it's about 1.30am in dazland right now, so it's after midnight. Were you able to recreate the last sale items not giving the correct discount if we own one of the G8 featured characters? That's the only thing not working in the sale.

    I found that it worked without a new release in the cart, but once a new release was added, the 60% off from the last sale items disappeared.

  • I was missing only 2 items that I wanted out of the V7 Pro bundle.  But, it was cheap enough with my discount to go ahead and get it.

    Can you rephrase that and give examples, maybe?
