    @illysart   Look over at the total in the cart, not the line item. It shows the $13.27 price but where it says total, it's $2.78  I just checked it, it's working for me.

    Madeline price error is fixed BTW

    Unfortunately, she shows up as 13 dollars in my cart. 

    Have you purchased a new item within the last 3 days?

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    @Novica She shows at $2.51 in my cart. I wonder what I've bought that makes my price just that little bit better than yours... :)

    Maybe the extra 10% discount for owning Aiko 8 Pro ??

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,924

    Yep, because I don't have that. I don't regret it, I've got most of the contents of the Pro Bundle, I just did it piecemeal because I got better deals on some of the days that required buying 2 new releases, etc. But that Pro Bundle was a sweet deal (I recall it was down in the $23-$25ish range with a PC code, IIRC.

    Snagged the Aiko 7 Pro Bundle for $13.18. Just had to buy four texture sets I'll likely never use for $3.295 a piece. Could have gotten it for less if I hadn't already used the $6 DO coupon. At least somewhat makes up for no free pro bundle with Aiko 8.

    Actually it sounds like you got the aiko 7 Pro bundle for $23.05....

    Nope. Technically the pro bundle was $0, but the useless (for me) texture sets were a means to an end, so I was counting them as $0 and the pro bundle as $13.18. Sorry if it wasn't clear.

    Ah got it.  thanks for clarifying!

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    Yeah. When it got down to $23 and it gave me an excuse to burn my coupon, I jumped. Good move in hindsight, as there hasn't been anything else quite as tempting since.

    Did DAZ just punished early Ollie buyers? You get an extra structure product if you buy him now along with the free base/starter/pro..

    Hmm, got it wrong. They now moved Ollie to the Still Mad releases.

    No you have to buy 2 or more Newly Mad Releases

    ... Damn it I literally JUST bought him like an hour ago. :( 

  • Robert FreiseRobert Freise Posts: 4,573

    I bought Ollie yesterday

    All you need to buy is two  or more Newly Mad Releases to get the free structure

    As someone who has spent a lot over the past couple of years during the big sales, I've kind of hit the buying wall.  I have a huge library of content that has yet to be rendered. I have to agree that without sales discounting to super low prices, I just don't have much incentive to buy.  There are a lot of new items that I really like.  But the price points are just too high for me to casually add them to my runtime.  It's easy to spend a ton of money on good content.  But it is hard to justify the outlay just to increase my collection when so many more practical expenses keep tapping me on the shoulder.  I love the work all these talented artists produce...hence the aforementioned huge runtime.  So I don't want to devalue anyone's work.  But I am more likely to buy a few new releases at under $6 for something i really want, than spend $50 up to get a big bundle of things that I'll forget I own.   Since new items have been debuting at higher than $10 for most items, I've been far less likely to buy and more likely to do without.  That said, perhaps if I didn't already own so many similar items, I'd be much more excited.

    PC+ item West Park Basement Iray, a newly mad item, is not triggering the free item for me. I also have Boggle in the cart, so that is 2 newly mad items.

    Edit: Doesn't seem to be the PC+ item. I've added the dforce Chef outfit, too, so that's 3 newly mad items. Can't get The Last Stand for free; then substituted Hospital Room, and still not free.

    It is working for me. Do you by chance have any other items in your cart? For example if you accidently had a second structure then it wouldn't work.

    Thanks!

    I thought I had checked for that, but it turns out that West Park Morgue, a "required item" for West Park Basement, which in turn is a "required item" for West Park Basement Iray, is a structure and is taking the place of the free structure. It's annoying, since West Park Morgue is otherwise on sale (at $0.36) if you have it in the cart with a new PC+ item. But now I have to remove it and not get the sale price unless I buy another PC+ item.

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    You know, the cheapest items to get the freebie are an abandoned bedroom and West Park Basement Iray... and the most valuable freebie is also a basement... 

    And I feel like there has been a run on basements, attics and abandoned rooms lately. 

    Just an observation. I don't know how many different versions of these things I need.

    And of course, I *want* the RV... but so must everyone else...

    Hello,

    in the subject of the daily email I got from daz it says "The incredibly versatile Ollie 8 - Buy any 2 or more newly mad items and get an extra 30% off todays madness artist catalog DAZ3D Sales & Promos....".

    So I have two newly mad items and one from a featured artist in my shopping cart but I don't get a 30% extra discount only the normal 50% discount. 

    Does someone know what's that about with the additional 30% discount? On the march madness site nothing is written about it.

    After a half an hour, she showed at the lower price. It took a lot of refreshes to get it.

    I think the trick to make today's sale worthwhile is to sort the structures by highest price and get the first one you like. Getting a free $1.99 item seems kinda pointless.

    LOL

    However, if one isn't a member, there aren't any $1.99 items. (I bought my first membership with my first purchase, so I tend to forget those products show up full price for a lot of people!)

    Now we're starting to get some good prices! :) By the end, it will become a pretty decent sale. :D

    Yes. I agree. Though I think Daz is limiting their sales by limiting the qualifiers to just the Newly Mad. There are several things in the Still Mad I wishlisted, for example, that I might go ahead and get now with the added discounts on featured artists' back catalogs. But as they won't trigger the higher discounts, they'll stay in my wishlist.

    Just an observation, not a complaint. I've nearly a dozen items in my cart at the moment, needing to be culled into something more reasonable. But it is a common complaint in the forums, that Daz limits the pool of qualifying products. therefore limiting the number of people who can/will take advantage of the offer.

  • ArtsyDragonArtsyDragon Posts: 682

    I am still glad here. They are saving me money by keeping focus on products I have no need to purchase. If they actually put new male content on sale, not just niche items, i would be so poor.

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    I'm not sure how one could successfully shop here without ATI's plug-in letting you know that you already have all or the majority of that bundle that is on super discount, already. 

    I'd be re-buying stuff I already own all the time, otherwise.

    The plug in is the only reason to use Chrome in my book

    Awesome 30% of Featured Artists.  Too bad Stonemason isn't on the list I would of dropped $100 easily if he was.

    This sale did bring me the opportunity to request partial refund for the difference in price.  Should get about $25.00 back after I submit the request(s)

    [Question]: When submitting the refund requests, if they are spread out over 7 different orders, should I send in one (1) ticket for each order or can they be combined into one refund request.

    I would try one and wait to see if they balk.
