March Madness 2019

  • Tell you all what, Just put everything in the store at 85% off for the month of March.

    No I'm not for that what vendor in they right mind would work for 7.5 % profit after daz takes it's cut. You would have nothing to sell and less item to choose from.

    Unless you really want cheap and nasty, I prefer hight quality myself with more chooses. I've bought a heap this month ! 

    You drive a hard bargain, let's meet in the middle, 90% off.
  • Except for 1 or 2 years when a friend gave me good sized gift cards, I don't usually buy much at MM for one reason or another -- budget, products offered, sales types. So my MM2019 strategy is Use my March/April PC coupons when I see something I really want, otherwise get popcorn and soda to enjoy the "Weird Sales & Reactions to Them."

    That's probably what I'll do! My budget is fairly small in March, but if I get one or two things I really want and use my PC coupons, I have so much content already that I have plenty of things to render,  with or without buying MM stuff. I appreciate the effort  DAZ and the PA's put into these sales though. Some of them are really fun. smiley

  • There seems to be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth over what appears to be a flubbed first day of a sale.  It's not the end of the world, and DAZ has made quick mid course corrections when things didn't go over well before "cough* snow ball sale *cough*  So the sky probably isn't falling, there is a good month to go on this and let's see what happens on day 2.

    For real!

    Extra 10% for owning Landon 8 is not working it seems.

    Try logging, I'm getting it.

    If not, time for a ticket.

    Still not working - I just submitted a ticket.

  • Seems like a simple enough sale to me.  (Jump through hoops) = 57% off, which is less than flashsale = 60% off, therefore skip day.

  • OK, so Landon 8 Pro Bundle and the Cyborg are key for today, right. Having the key should get you 10% additional discount on Newly Mad: Not working for me, did get Landon 8 Pro Bundle just yesterday. Also with the Still Mad items from yesterday the page says learn how to get an additional 10% but the link does not work nor does the key section list Still Mad as items which will get the additional discount. Lots of questions.

    Yes, I do appreciate the efforts and the fun. Even some of the sales I don't take advantage of myself are still fun to see. And if something convinces me to stray from my Grand Plan, all the better.

    I don't think it's working for me either - I get the same percentage in my cart regardless if I put in two Newly Mad releases or one and I bought the Landon Pro bundle.

    EDIT: Can I get a confirmation on this percentage in the cart:

    2 Newly Mad releases + Your Key item (Landon 8 Pro) = 55% off the Newly Mad Releases in the cart?

    2 Newly Mad releases + Your Key item (Landon 8 Pro)  + $200 Gift Card = 57% off the Newly Mad Releases in the cart?

    Those percentages are right, when did you buy Landon 8 Pro?

    First day he was released.

  • I purchased Landon yesterday. Does not show up in the key section but the 2 newly mad and the two still mad items in my cart remain at 50%.

    Heh.  I just put together a big cart of G2 items in the flash sale and tried tossing in a $201.00 GC along with the two new items to see what the differencee would be.  At first I thought that GC part of the sale had to be broken, but after careful side by side scrutiny of the two carts, it turned out that the benefits of that extra 5% (DAZ style) were so small that it wasn't making the DAZ Deals discount percentage meter move by a single point on all but one of the flash items. surprise

    Please post screens shots of your carts.

    Is there a way to attach a PDF?  I ended up with 75 items in the cart and made records of my final purchases with and without the $201.00 GC, and while there WAS some change in the price of the flash items, in most cases it wasn't enough to bump the discount by a whole percentage point.

    Well... if you're going to put something on sale then put it on sale. I spent $121 on items including a new release but can't purchase Dante because my purchase was four days out and not three. They put Dante on sale but limit it to a small group? How much more money do you think they'd get if it was open to all? I just never get the marketing strategy here.

    Someone said that you should try to buy Dante after the order you made today and you will be able to buy it on 70%.

     

    I didn't buy anything today. I spent $121 four days prior to the Dante discount and you only get the discount if it had been three days since you purchased a new release.

    I could get the discount if I purchased something today but Dante is not exactly an incentive to purchase a new release I don't need.

    ...loaded the Cello in the card and the other of Protzoon's instruments I had on the wishlist as his store is on sale, only to find out all the included poses were only for G8. Bugger, as there is no pose converter for G8 to G3.

    Zev0's G3 > G8 Pose Converter also includes a G8 > G3 Pose corrector; you use the G8 pose on G3, then use the corrector to put the arms and legs in the right place.

    ...ahh saw that at the end of the descirption.

    As the G2 ➜ G3 converter (which I have) can batch convert all poses in a pose set and save them to the Converted folder can you do the same going from G8 to G2?

    Ah I also see Zev0's store is featured in the Mad Artist sale today.  Hopefully it and Protozoon's store will stay that way until the weekend as I already used my coupons for this month.

    I think there was a (tiny) cart error in my favour today.  It took 50% off the car-wash when combining with 80% off G2 items.  Nothing else newer than G2 era in the cart bar the car-wash to expect it to go from 40 to 50.

    That looked about right - your Still/Nwely Mad items went from 55% off to 57% off which is the extra 5% for the GC.

    Yep.  Like I said, at first I thought the GC discount on the entire cart wasn't working at all, but it was actually just that the amount difference on most of the items was so small that the DAZ DEALS percentage meter couldn't show it since it doesn't show fractions of a percent.

    ...interesting, now some of the Mad Artists items don't show the 40% discount. Just looked at Zev0's and Stonemason's store and everything is full price.

    I can't even get the new stuff to load. I cleared the cache on both FF and Chrome. The only reason I know there's new stuff is because of the regular store lineup, but the ad is showing the same as yesterdays.

    Nothing new showing for me either. 

  • CybersoxCybersox Posts: 9,271

    The products are showing in the store, just not on the page.  The promised hair sale isn't showing yet either, obviously. 

  • Please give it a while longer; hasn't changed over yet.

  • 3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,970

    I can confirm. The banner for the today's sale is up, but the link it gives is to yesterday's sale.

    The newsletters don't seem to have gone out either.  Time to give up and go to bed.

  • Daz is in process of fixing.

  • Should be fixed.
