    What was the last coupon? I was up until after 2AM EST and Daz was dragging their feet on updating the coupon and the next day's sale. Had to get some sleep so I missed it.

    These: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/4621296/#Comment_4621296 But they were up well before 2AM EST (which is also DAZ midnight)

    My bad then. I thought there was another one for some reason. I saw those.

    I woke up at 4am and was in time to get a couple of things with the 90% off coupon.  Very nice.

    The previous coupons had been chaos for me.  I ended up giving up on a couple as they would not work, buying something extra that I didn't want (still confused how that happened as I agreed to pay the right price when going through Paypal but actually ended up paying much more), and generally getting grumpy about it.

    WaHoo! It looks like we finally have a qiuet day in the sales department -- which is a good thing. After last weekend's sales and yesterday's couponmania. I really need to save up for next week's new major character.

    Edit Guess I spoke too soon

    Dang, missed the coupon sale. As a Poser-user, these Buy A New Release And Unlock Your Sale Items- sales are of no use to me; I'm mostly interested in older content. Interesting sales have become rare for me.

    Bummer.

    I'm really hoping that's not supposed to be a serious suggestion.

    Quite aside from the fact one of the side effects of my ASD is serious sleep cycle issues (where any disruption can cause them to completely fall apart) and I'm sure other people have similar constraints on their sleep cycle, I have no intention of waking up early for coupons that a) may not actually still be available and b) may be some underwhelming offer on a poor selection of V4 items where I already have everything I care for.

    I strongly detest this kind of rapid-fire sales because I'm neither clairvoyant or capable of ordering in my sleep, so I am frequently forced to miss out on discounts that aren't available at any other time. I would have absolutely leapt at some of the things that were in the selection for the final coupons, but I never had the choice.

    Wow, sorry to hear about your sleep issues. I have never heard of that or anyone having issues like that before. So how do you deal with waking at different times for work, appointments, etc?

    I often see that I have missed limited time sales like that because I'm at work. Sleep isn't the only reason people miss sales, and having them during daytime hours can be worse for some people than evening in their time zone. That said I'm generally in favor of fewer, simpler sales, and none of the flash, blink, whatever sales. But enough people seem to like the way DAZ currently operates, or they wouldn't keep doing it.

    I'm largely restricted to working freelance, as while I can normally have a regular enough routine, when it breaks, it results in several days when everything goes up the spout. I have to end up fighting through weird symptoms; doing things like fighting the urge to go to bed early, because regardless of how tired I am, all that results in is me waking up at two in the morning, unable to get back to sleep.
    Strict appointments usually require me to set at least three different alarms, because a) if I don't, my brain boots up so slowly I may just turn them off in a stupor and b) I won't get any sleep anyway because I end up panicking that I won't wake up on time.

    Not particularly fun. I don't really recommend it.

    Still, my general point wasn't really about my own sleep issues, but that "get up early" is hardly a universally practicable solution to making these sales fairer on non-US residents; there's lots of people who can't do that (albeit usually for less weird reasons, such as "saving a few bucks isn't worth falling asleep on my desk at work").

    Big Victoria birthday sale just started.....

    (Happy 20th birthday, Vicky!)

    Are the Kala discounts supposed to stack with the Victoria coupon? For the Morroco sale, I mean...I bought Kala last night (big bundle plus addons) so I should get an extra 20% off the featured artists on the Morroco page PLUS when I add the coupon it should stack right?

  • Silent WinterSilent Winter Posts: 3,869

    All the Vicky bases free for her birthday sale (picked up 6 and 8 as they were the 2 I didn't have) - discounts on all the pro and starter bundles too.

    It would depend on how it is worded. If you expect it should stack and isn't, you can put in a ticket. I'll also send in an inquiry separately, but it is the weekend.

    Since I grabbed Vic 8 Pro when she was released, well today's sale is less useful to me due to the fact that I ended up with all of the other Vic pro bundles via said release sale.  The discounts for the older stuff is still there of course, but then them's the breaks r.e. Daz sales.

    For those that grabbed Vic 8 at a later date though, enjoy!

    Not all, actually. Victoria 3 isn't free nor discounted. (i just got some cool texture for her, so i was thinking to get her on sale, guess not this time yet)

  • Matt_CastleMatt_Castle Posts: 3,003

    I don't know if there was supposed to be some banner deal for previous owners, but it's underwhelming to not get any alternate offer for already having all of the base figures, and 4 of the 5 Pro Bundles.

    Particularly as bits and pieces of the one bundle I haven't got (V5) trickle through the freebies so often that the only thing of any real significance that I'm missing is the anatomical elements, and even on discount I' m not forking out just for those.

    It stacks with the offers for buying Kala herself, so I'd say it should.

    Based on the wording on the sale page I'd say they consider the discounts on related items a good enough offer for people who already own the bundles.

    The "thanks frequent buyer" offer I got refered to "Victoria birthday month", so there are probably more sales coming.

    Wasn't it a whole week last year, a few days with incredibly good discounts ?

    If I would write down what I think about this answer, I probably would get a then well deserved ban.


     

    As it is, DAZ is probably ignoring an opportunity to make more sales, by ignoring the market outside of the US time zones. It's ok with me though, as it keeps me from spending even more money. Which I then spend at other shops offering 24 hours 70% off sales... devil

    Thanks Chris and everyone...I'll keep an eye out.

    My one day only purple banner doesn't seem to be applying. Gift card should discount to 80 from 100, stays at 90 (and yes, I tested other items as well, but this is the quickest way to show the percentage is off).

    And that's leaving aside the atrocious verbiage in the offer - did the office cat walk across the keyboard?

    I'd open a ticket with support... based on the code you got there, I suspect that your coupon is supposed to say 10%, but is does say 20% for you. Maybe get a clock/calendar in the screenshot too just in case.

    It has been 10 all week - now it says 20 for today only, but yeah, I'm going to file a ticket. (Edit: after I give the store an hour or so to settle).
