    Quick question for fellow shoppers: If you had none of the products on today's flash sale, and a maximum budget of $15, what would you get?

    if there was something on my wishlist that was in the sale, I'd get that.

  • Hard to say without knowing what sort of things someone renders, but if you remember in iray, Mec4D's pbr shaders volume 2 is probably one of the products I have used the most.

    +1

    But any of these volumes 1-4, would be great in your toolbox, depending on what you render most.

    The "Let's go Xeno-Cyber" promotion doesn't apply the proper discount to any item that already has some sort of promotion (i.e., The AntFarm, RawArt). The 50% off group seems okay, but the 60% and 70% groups have a smaller discount (52% and 60% respectively) with a qualifying "Go Time Cyber" release in the cart. Regular-priced items get the proper discount in all groups.

  • Question regarding the new Karyssa sales: if I purchase Giselle 6 by itself, will I then get an orange banner for a discount on the Kayssa Pro Bundle?  Or does it only apply to purchases prior to today?

    Can somebody remind me when the Owen offer ends? Thought it was the end of the month but he's missing from the carousel and so is my orange banner. frown

    If I remember correctly, it was the 22nd.

    The orange banner rewards folks who own previous spritely/elven Pro Bundles, so I'd say no.

    I'm pretty sure Daz runs a bit of code on the database to identify which customers have already purchased the qualifiers for any given offer and then sends those customers the Exclusive Message which usually becomes the Orange Banner. Purchasing a qualifier after they've put up the messages is, probably, too late.

    New releases stay at the new release intro discount, usually 30%, for two weeks. If the product is a Daz Original (DO) and you're a Platinum Plus member, there is an additional 30% discount, which is applied as long as you remain a member. After two weeks, the product will remain "new" and not qualify for any additional discounts, (other than the member discount on DOs,) until the product has been in the store for more than 60 days. From day 61 on, the product can qualify for additional discounts, if it meets the specified criteria.

    Pro Bundles, while including items that are credited to the artist, are considered only Daz Originals and will not qualify for a Featured Artist discount, but Daz does frequently have really good sales on the "older" content. The older it is, the better the discount. (For example, under the "Karyssa 8 Featured related items" on the sales page, you'll find categories for "60% OFF genesis 3 FEMALE CONTENT" and "70% OFF genesis 2 FEMALE CONTENT."

    Now, among the 15 Related Items are three Pro bundles, which you can pick up for free when you purchase Karyssa 8 Pro bundle. I have all three of those bundles, (and then some,) which probably explains why I got the Orange banner. If you really like Karyssa 8 and want the Pro bundle, I say go for it, and put all three of the Pro bundles from the Related Items in your cart as well. It's a really good deal.

    On the other hand, if you can't swing the price, know that she'll be discounted, probably quite nicely at some time in the future. You just need to be patient.

    Good luck.

    about the let's go cyber sale...

    i got a bunch of things, and through the map manager (new), a lot of other things' prices went down to 70%, as expected (2 of them, Force Fields & Spring Hair, are 70% too but it's from another sale).
    while the price is correct for the Urban Future bundle (70% because Pre 2015) and the Bio Squad Toxic (60% because 2015-2016), it isn't for my last item, the Floating Junk. $8.13 is not 60% of $16.95, even less of the already down to 40% price $10.17 - and even the cart list shows 52% ... it should be $6.78, not $8.13.

    ok, by a cart price of 75$ (ruined is not even the beginning of the first name of it... omg), the less than 1 and a half $ difference is ridiculously negligible, especially with such awesome bargains like the UFB, i'm being a bit (a lot?) fussy here. still, why should i not get the sale price correctly ~

    No problem. Never got an answer anyway, so I just got other PAs stuff. There was enough to choose from.

    Are the G2F & G3F sales going to stay around as long as the Karyssa intro sale? I can't afford all I want, so having a hard time deciding what I want.

    That's hard to say. In theory, those categories will stay on sale as long as the Karyssa intro sales page is active, and that is what I expect to see. However, Daz has removed sections of sales pages in the past, so it is possible the categories will come down before the intro page does.

    I recommend bookmarking into their own folder all the products from those categories that you really want, then change the order of the bookmarks according to your priorities. Start at the top and work your way down, purchasing what you can afford, be that one or dozen items. Remove purchased items from the bookmarks. If the sale stays up, and you can afford it, go back to your bookmarks and buy from those. That way you won't be distacted by the hundreds of other products on sale, which can lead to a lot of time lost going through pages and pages of products. Again.

    I have done this myself on many occasions. It really does save time in the long run, for something that's going to be available for an extended period.

  • Thanks for the suggestion, L'Adair. I will do that.
