    Does anyone know how Daz decides who gets a banner?

    When it comes to banners for the pro bundles, it's a safe bet if you haven't been buying a lot of pro bundles, you won't get the banner. If you're a newer customer, (been buying stuff for a year or less,) you may not have purchased enough of these to qualify.

    But don't despair. What I like to call the end-of-the-year sales trifecta is nearly here: The PA Festival in September, (usually starts in August, and usually manages to run for six weeks,) immediately followed by the PC+ Anniversary Sale, (always starts sometime in October, and runs for at least four weeks. A fifth week is very much determined by how early in October the previous sale ends,) and shortly thereafter, the Holiday Rewards Sale. Though there is a bit of a break between the last two, Thanksgiving is in between and Daz will have some sort of long weekend "Black Friday" sale. These three event sales will always begin on a Monday, if that helps you prepare.

    Anyway, amazing deals show up during these sales, and I've picked up a few pro bundles at really good prices, (that would be bundles I wanted but couldn't afford at the time of release.) About the only thing you can predict about these sales, though, is the one thing you liked best about the last one, will probably not be repeated in the next one.

    For me, it was necessary to create a Gmail filter to tell it to never put email from that address in SPAM.

    If several of us keep clicking "not a spam," it might reconsider. :)

    All of my "DAZ Forums" messages went into SPAM starting late yesterday. Why would Gmail have suddenly decided it was SPAM, after delivering it successfully for so long? The email address looks the same to me.

    Everytime a forum member posts in my bookmarked threads, Gmail sends the emails to spam! Seems "Report not spam" isn't satisfied that the domain is safe. This is the security info I see: "blackmesh.com did not encrypt this message."

    Thank you @algovincian and @barbult. For whatever reason I thought that reporting it as not spam was supposed to create the filter.

    I created the filter manually in my Google account.

    Anyone's store credit from the Buy to Earn sale show up yet? I know it says by Tuesday...but wondered if they might be getting it before the weekend. Also is there any sort of notification?

    I doubt it will be done before Tuesday. And yes, IIRC you get a notification when your balance changes.

    I was hoping to use my store credit from this sale to get something in Fast grab for free! Any idea how long things last in Fast grab?

    Items from a New Fastgrab Items notification I got on the 7th are already gone. 3 days or so?

    It varies. Some items are in there for only a day, others could be there for several days.

    Edit: Now showing proper discount on store page after a hard refresh.. Thanks, Chris

    Some hang for weeks... especially older items.

    About massive Victoria and Michael 4 sale:

    if I put a new item in my cart and 3 RDNA (Daz Original) items, I can't use my monthly coupon of 6 $. I don't see why.... It looks like a bug.

    When I saw "Report sales errors here", I thought it meant that someone from Daz would answer... I asked for support, but since it is a weekend sale, there's no chance my ticket will be answered before the end of the sale...

    People from Daz don’t generally post in the forums (except for announcements). The thread is meant to make it easier for moderators to see problems and report them to Daz.

    For the record I’m not sure it’s a bug, past few “1.99$” sales could not be combined with other discounts or coupons IIRC.

  • We have passed the query on the $1.99 items and PC coupcons on, but I can't guarantee it will get a reply. I would suspect they are not meant to aply, that the tiems are being treated as if they were PC+

  • Did the gift card sale start on Saturday or on Sunday? Meaning does it end in some minutes or Monday night?

  • SevrinSevrin Posts: 6,313

    The Assyrian Warriors related PAs "View these artists together" link is a link to Dreamlight's unfiltered store, while the Dreamlight special offers link is correct.

  • I don't think the featured artist discount is working with a new release. I'm not seeing 45% plus an additional 40%.

    Could you please show the contents of your cart?

    The extra 40% is only on selected Dreamlight items, as I read it.

  • OK the gift card sales goes on but the sale with the $ store credit ended. Does anybody know how long it takes until or when the store credit is transferred? The promo is already offline.

    The promo page said it would be on Tuesday.

    The $1.99 sale is no longer working, at least with the 2 products in my cart ... the 2 military items
    I guess the $15 rebate isn;t working anymore either..the banner ad is gone, so i can remove those 3 items ... maybe thats whats messing up the $1.99 deal? 
    It was all working correctly yesterday, but as usual, I waited and lost the deal.

    I don't see that on the banner or the page. But I'm viewing on my phone...does it look different?
  • SevrinSevrin Posts: 6,313

    1 related item.  Vendor page shows 40%, cart shows:

    2 related vendor items, both showing 40% on vendor page:

    2 related items, with 1 qualifying new release:

    I see it on my phone. The Dreamlight caveat is in yellow text and is a hyperlink.

    none of the $1.99 slect DAZ originas are discounting to $1.99... 
    I posted a screenshot up above of 2 items..but now none of them work. 

    There are 3 banners advertsing this $1.99 deal ... so whats up? I relaize it says weekend, so maybe it timed out, but then the banners should go away.
