    Alexandra 8 HD and Stephanie 8 HD were Bonus Madness items,

    And if you haven't bought anything new in the last three days, those won't show up for you. I recall one person who had the bonus showing and had it disappear later in the day. (Last year's MM, I think.) Anyway, it's quite possible the three days is calculated by the software from the timestamp when you placed the order and ends exactly 72 hours after that.

    At the moment, all three Bonus Madness items I did not purchase are showing on my sales page, including the Stephanie 8 HD Add On.

    As for Daz getting the number of items wrong in their adcopy? Well… I'm going to surprise the mods and Daz staff and not say a single word!

    Yeah, it's a pretty restrictive set of conditions. If you're not logged in, you can't see the Bonus items. If you haven't bought something new in the last three days, you can't see them. If you bought them, you can't see them anymore.

    How is that restrictive. If you are not logged in, you can't purchase anything. if you haven't purchased a qualifying item, then you don't qualify, and if you have already bought it, then you don't need to see it like the rest of your purchased items. Makes sense to me. If they showed the item(s) without purchasing a qualifying item, then everyone would be pissed that they couldn't get the deal even though they could see it. I guess that might make some users buy something if they were interested in the bonus item, but that is far from restrictive.

    If they showed what the item was, it could be incentive for someone to buy something new. This way, unless someone reads the forums, they have no idea they could have gotten a highly discounted item. Strange marketing tactic...

    Well, both points of view are worthy of debate. Some might like the surprise, others want to know everything beforehand. Only the bottom line will show if it works. It does keep things ...interesting.

    I've seen the bonus items... not one of them I want at the price they're asking, even with the bonus buyer discount. 

     

     

  • Got Charlotte Pro for $22 after coupon with imrae, Aldo, and enigma in cart.  $41 for all. So a decent round of Jenga.

    +1 I didn't even know there were bonus items for the first few days - AND I even browse the forum. It took me a few days to catch on that there were bonus items and how to qualify for them. There's like nothing on the sales page to tell people about them. I would think that they'd make it loud and clear that if you purchase something you get access to deeply discounted bonus buyer items - I wonder how many people are passing up on these things because they don't even know about them. :(

    The 'Still New' category is supposed to have over 100 items ... I am showing exactly 1 item (Emmanuelle for G8F). Is this just me, or are others experiencing the same issue?

    Lol .Same here.  I thought maybe I was the mad one. 

  • Several times these past couple weeks it seems that the March Madness pages only partially switches and can take upto an hour to fully switch. Give it a little bit more time for the store to change over for the new Daz day. Seems that the store refreshes out approximately 12am US Mountian time and usually takes 40 minutes to an hour to fully switch over.

    Usually the page gets up before the content (swirly festival), this time it's the content first, on the old page.

    Okay. I waited. Things look good now. Thanks.

  • $20 off discount isn't applying either.

    This seems to have been a matter of the site not catching up.  There are 20 items in still new. If you get anything else or a button for another page, it's the wrong sale data.

    I think that was just for yesterday and the day before. I don't think that's part of the new sale today.

    I'm told this is today's Bonus, as I haven't bought anything in about a week...

    Today seems to be the first really mad day. That extra 30% makes me consider a few dozen items. Might be a good day for @AntMan :D

  • maikdeckermaikdecker Posts: 3,037

    Ok, a question for those "in the know":

     

    I got me the PC+ annual membership on March 6th. Now there is that offer for getting it at 30% off when buying a newly mad release. Would I be eligible for a partial refund?

    Likely not, as there are no returns on PC memberships, but it wouldn't hurt to ask for a store credit for the difference; the worst they could say is 'no'.

    If you wanted to extend it at the discounted price, it would add a year to your subscription...

    I don't believe there is a refund on membership, but as @WandW said, you could add another year at the discounted price. Just make sure you cancel any unneeded recurring payments in PayPal, so you don't end up being renewed twice next year.

  • maikdeckermaikdecker Posts: 3,037

    Thanks @WandW and @Ati
    I'll check if store credit is possible

    You can always try asking, but unless they've changed their policy in the past few years they'll say no as "memberships are non-refundable". At least that's what they told me when I asked a few years ago after my membership auto-renewed 1 day before it went on a big sale....

  • Maybe a stupid question but since the PC Annual Subscription is recurring does the 30% off extend to all additional years until cancelled.  Or will it renew at full price next year. 

    Cause if it keeps the 30% off year after year then that is an amazing deal instead of just a great deal.

    Oh he's cute. But I haven't bought anything new recently. Dangit.

    Thanks.  That's what I thought but one could only hope.

    On another note was anyone else hoping for a Gift Card sale today to start off the second half of March Madness.  But a better one than the discount given earleir in the sale.  Last year I bought a gift card for 24%, hoping for a sale this year at that discount.

    But, I think that you can buy multiple years at the sale price up front.

    Each time you purchase a yearly membership it adds one year to your expiration date. So you can buy multiple years upfront, or renew early if there's a good deal before auto-renewal date.

    Wow, don't think I have ever seen one at that discount, but that would be pretty sweet.
