I have two items listed in the promotion in my Shopping Cart but the discount isn't applying. Am I doing something wrong?

    did you refresh the cart ? that often helps, if yes try making a screenshot of your cart so we can maybe see whats going on

    If the idea is 50%/60% off full prices rather than the discounted prices shown, then it works OK for me.

    This is weird... nothing on my wishlist is shown in my supposed sale wishlist... anyone else?  It looks like a generic wishlist to me....  indecision  Silene

    Perhaps your wishlisted items are still 'New'

    The disclaimer says ¥ Excludes New Releases and PC+ items.

    The wishlist sale is not my stuff except one thing the wolf. The rest is all women’s outfits and hair for women. Stuff I would never buy cause I render men. Bizarro.

    JVRenderer  No, my list is old as the hills... no G8 stuff on it at all!  frown

    Serene Night  Yes, my list has loads of women's hair and such as well.  I have mostly props, accessories and a couple of tuts on my real list. Oh well....  the PC sale was more helpful.  

    Cheers!  yes  Silene

    There is one item maybe two from my list. Not much for me to pick from. It's mainly people & things for them. I prefer props, environments, and other items.

    The promo says "We've taken your top Wish List Items..." - I presume that means the items that appear most frequently on different people's wishlists. Which is why they could setup a category for them. I think there are three items from my wishlist but unfortunately not the ones I most want, only the "maybe someday" ones.

    Wouldn't it be nice if it were a personalised sale (i.e. any 3+ items off your own personal list)!

    Upon further inspection, there is a discount. As a PC member, one of the hair styles I want is $17.46 with 40% off the original price. By putting another hair style in my cart from this sale, the cost was reduced an additional 10%. So the savings are there, just not what it sounds like in the promo. Very tricky Daz, I see what you did there. ;) I ain't mad atcha.

    I wonder what non-PC members pay then? The same? 

    ETA:  it looks like none of them are DOs, so not relevant.

    The promo does say that you get two items at 50% off. Is that not what you are seeing in the cart?

    I think the confusion is that none of them are DOs, so the 40% initial discount is not PC discount.

    and can you just imagine the work they would have to do to work that out for gazillions of shoppers individually

    It's clearly a congregate of everybody's wish list.  And if you take the "hide items I own" filter off, you can see the problem with that ;)  I already took care of that part of my wishlist...

    Edit:  It's also getting real close the the beginning of March, I imagine the marketing department is busy.

    Eh, rendo has wishlist sales and they work fine. Doesn’t seem that hard to do. wink

    As it is this is just another boring female content sale like all the others. Nothing targeted to me specifically at all.

    I imgine the pseudocode would look a lot like

    for(item in wishlist){

    price *= 0.5;

    }

    Nowhere near what they had to write to sort the top items from everyone's wishlist. DAZ probably heard that "that other site" does periodic "50% off everything in your wishlist" sales and came up with this...

    Oh yes, of course I can see why they cannot do that - but still "wouldn't it be nice" as a concept?! For one day everyone would feel happy (although probably someone would not)

    This wouldn't make much sense. I add everything I want to buy to my wishlist, and boom, 50% off them. It would be a lot easier to simply have a 50% off everything sale. And there was such sale at least once.

    Nope; Not from my wislist they haven't. Not a single item in my wishlist is in todays "Wishlist" sale 

    I think the implication is that they've taken the top wishlist items from everyone and put the most popular on sale.

    I almost had hope... but, no.  Nothing off my wishlist in the sale.  I have a pretty big wishlist, too, over 400 items.  :-(  I even have a few G3/8 items on it in the hopes of someday getting those things to fit!

  • diogenese19348diogenese19348 Posts: 929

    I think Rendo's algorythm is "Put everything on sale, it's gotta be on SOMEBODY'S wishlist..."

    Daz did that, too. I don't know if they'll repeat that sale, but they had it at least once.

    It's probably just Top Sellers again with a new name.

    "Top sellers" implies people bought them. This, to me, implies items that people want but don't buy (or at least haven't bought so far) for whatever reason.

    Interestingly enough, the half of the items I bought never got to my wishlist, I bought them before they could get there.  The half the items that remain aren't on it either.

    Edit:  not quite true.  Three items I bought were on my wishlist at some point, they just got bought before this sale.

    The detail list is showing me 34 of 83 items. None of the 34 available have ever come close to my wish list. So I'll pick up a couple of the new PC items and wait to see what tomorrow brings, knowing full well that DAZ and the PAs will come u with some way of separating me  from my money eventually. :-)

    Well yes. But I was looking at MY price. With 40% already taken off. So I was expecting 50% off of $17.94. As I said, it's fine. I'm not saying it's false advertising. I'm not mad, it was just an easy misunderstanding.

    It's 40% off by default, 50% off if you buy two, 60% off if you buy three or more. They don't stack. Unfortunately. :D Would be way cooler if they did. :D

    As far as I've been able to tell, that's basically what their wishlist sales are.  All of the ones I've seen them run almost the entire store is at 50% off

    Well, you could either do it by picking the X most wanted/popular items (those most wishlisted/bought by others) on each individual's wishlist (wouldn't be perfect for everyone, but would ensure everyone got a selection tailored to their own wishlist)... or leave it to the buyers themselves - something along the lines of: "Pick one/two/three items already on your wishlist (Still new items and newly wishlisted items are exempt), buy a new release, get them at 40/50%/60% off. One use only".

    Admittedly, I don't know whether the underlying code in the Daz store could practically handle those kinds of database parameters, but the idea of users getting to select specifically from their own wishlist items doesn't necessarily require hiring private investigators to work out exactly what everyone most wants.
