The most confusing sale yet.

50 plus pages per section, 6 plus sections, thousands of unmarked item. I tried 2 hours these past two night to find stuff from my wish list, I literally would have to make this an all day project. No way to sort, no way to keep track, which item belongs with which flash code. Utterly painful. I havent had a chance to buy a thing because I run out of time irl. i am sorry I offened anyone in advance.

    ...yeah I agree. I usually go to my wishlist first as that is where I place items I actually plan to use for my illustration work.  During sales that have the discounts posted up front, it's like the proverbial fish in a barrel, not having them makes it a crapshoot.

    ^Get Ati and Overdrawn's Daz Deals addon - it adds the option of 'show only wishlisted' to the store pages (an absolute time-saver in any big sale). Plus many other useful options:

  • Just use the ATI browser extension. This gives you a checkbox "Only show wishlist" on every store listing making it easy to see if anything wishlisted is among the items.

    ...thanks.  I thought that was originally a script through the Tampermonkey Extension.  I have something like that there but it refuses to work for some odd reason.  Added this one and works perfectly.

  • I worked backwards. I added the code for the appropriate section A-D or whatever, then added the items from my wishlist directly, after checking who created them. If no discount applied, I removed them from my cart.

    The second way was to select the artist who made the items I wanted if there were multiples, and browse that way. After a few pages, it gets into "Ancient crap", so unless you know you want old stuff, simply move on.

    I have had the ATI & Overdrawn extensions on my broswer on the tower and both laptops for so long that the few times I look at the store from someone else's computer or my iPad I go "why did DAZ kill so many useful features?"

    Seriously, why isn't DAZ looking at this and saying "we need to add these features to store"?

    rendo .. % off .. no gimmicky crazy math . no having to spend hours figuring most bang for the buck and then find out the sale ended during the time you;re figuring it out. No changing the rules mid-stream.

    Yes, but only one or two sales per year that are worth anything, and when you get coupons half the time they won't be accepted.

    They use a pre-packaged e-commerce solution (Magento) as the base of their store software. When you base your site on a packaged solution then adding features is sometimes complex or even totally impossible as you don't have full control of the code, a good number of features are more or less "black boxes" that you can't modify directly.

    they have 50-70% off selected merchants prett ymuch every day.I gave up on their coupons quite some time ago. They are fewer and fewer anyway.
