What The Heck Daz?

I put the Alphakini Bundle into my cart at $7 and some change, went to add a couple more things to my cart so I could use my coupon, went to check out and it literally changed a second before I hit buy.  Totally lost a sale on that one.  I think I am just going to stay out of the store for awhile.

    I've had prices going up when I go from the cart to checkout that go back down again if I go back to the cart and checkout again. Sometimes taking things out of the cart and putting them back fixes it. The store often has these random glitches, you have to keep a close eye on the total when you checkout.

    I do keep a close eye on it lol.  Otherwise I would have missed it.  There should be a set time that something stays in the cart for the price that it went into the cart with.  The store is now showing it at $12.23, so I am going to pass on everything.  Don't really need it anyway.  Not very smart for marketing though, I've completely lost any interest in impulse buying.

    Unfortunately for you the rule that Daz has when a glitch occurs which is in the customers favour, which yours was, then as long as you complete the purchase before the glitch is fixed than you can keep the product at the price you paid, and Daz swallows the loss of revenue

    However when the glitch goes the other way, then Daz always refunds the difference.  So the customer always wins.

    I don't generally shout for joy in the forums over pricing nor do I usually post what I paid for my purchases. I usually don't have much of an issue when this happens, especially if its been in the cart sitting for a bit.  But it changed after I was on the payment page, had run the coupon through and chose my payment method and literally had the cursor over the buy button to finish the transaction.  That should not happen, once those fields are filled out it shouldn't be able to change literally in the middle of of hitting the buy button.

    It's happened to me before (mine happened AS I clicked the buy button). I contacted CS and they fixed it right quick :) I will agree though that it is upsetting when it happens.

  • I've just seen two products that DAZ Deals is showing the lowest price was today!  But it's not the current price now.  Is DAZ running limited time sales or something? You know - the Flash Buy Them While You Can thing?   I'd buy both items if today's "low" price was still in affect.

    I think Stonemason and OOT are/were having flash sales...might be more. Those are just the two I noticed :)

    I noticed that on a couple items I was going to buy..the most current ATI email, and then I go to daz, and the price was way higher. maybe really short sales?

    Really short sales without a banner. I missed two of those today... Ah well, there's always another sale... :)

    (Two flash sales started shortly after these -- I assume they were preparations gone bad...)

    Yeah, there are a couple of different vendors now.  But the good news is that most of the stuff in my cart went down in price, so I decided to just pay and count my blessings.
