    I'm getting the proper discounts for the Niko 8 bundles, but not getting the additional 10% off for buying a Featured Artist item, in this case an Ensary item.

    They lioke you more than rest of us 

    na.  I was offered an additional 75% the Niko 8 Supercharge Bundle becaused I already owned all but two items in the bundle.  Ironically, all of the items in the bundle are so old they are drastically discounted.  Buy the bundled items ala carte and the total is only $30.58!

    Agreed. Adding up ALL the items at the current discount makes the bundle just $1.20 cheaper. Does not make much sense, esp. if you would buy some items only because of the bundle discount. I'd rather buy the individual items....

    Oh, just checked, they changed the message for me. I now only get an extra 30% discount on the Niko-8 bundle. Sorry, Niko, you're out.... too little value for that price.

    What! They changed my message, too. Is there any sale they can EVER deliver as advertised? I emptied the cart and I'm disgusted. 

    I see both offers. The one for 75% is for the CyberCharged and the 30% is for the CyberFunk bundle. They're in your messages. Mind you, I hadn't looked at first either.

    No, stop keep saying that. There is only one message at least in my inbox and I got first 75% and now I have only 30% banner. This is perfect example how to ruin your reputation. Good job daz!

    I would imagine you get the deal depending on what you purchased before. Some may have one or the other or both.

    Guess I'll skip this "Micro-Bundle" anyhow, but prices in cart are not correct currently:

    - Niko 8 Cyber Funk Bundle is missing the extra 10% for buying together with PA/other Niko 8 New Release
    - Second Niko 8 item is also missing the extra 10% and
    - PA item is missing the extra 30%

    Oh, and of course I won't use the 75% coupon for buying the Cypercharged Bundle which holds only 1 new item for me which is cheaper if purchased standalone but also not of that high interest to me.

    Seems like a day to hold on to my store credit waiting for things like the Food Shaders and such ;-)

    I also got half my banner removed and I'm not happy about it. All these errors are getting old and are taking a lot of fun out of shopping here.

    Same for me. I only got one single message, containing BOTH statements. Now, I have only the first part of the message. I do suppose that the original message was faulty. Nevertheless, seeing a discount of 75%, and then only 30%, leaves a bad taste, although, as such, it is correct. 

    On the other hand, saves me quite a bit of store credit. The new "bundles" are ridiculessly overpriced, but that is just my personal opinion.

    I still don't understand why the base figures are so expensive. $44.95 (non sale) for a character - other characters from PA's that are just as good and just as high quality are nowhere near that price. Why are the daz ones so expensive?

    No. I was originally offered 75% off, as you can see in the screenshot I posted of my cart and the offer. Daz changed my offer from 75% off to 25% off.  Look at what is in my messages now:

    Now here's an offer too good to be refused LOL

    And -- very technically -- that bundle doesn't even exist. There's the Supercharged Cyber bundle, and there's the Cyber Funk bundle, but the Cybercharged bundle isn't listed on the sale page.

    Apart from that slight detail, it was very easy to pass on the honour of paying $7 for a set I already own all the parts of.

    I hear you. I own everything in the bundle but the catsuit, which I don't particularly need. Not hard to resist that offer.

    Well it was probably reasonable back in the days where a couple of main Gen 2/3/8 figures provided morphs which many other products where dependent on, like Vicky, Olympia or Teen Josie. But with the current "Main-DAZ-Figure"-inflation those prices seem indeed odd, especially when there is not much surrounding stuff like with Niko 8. There are some rare exceptions though with really outstanding characters like Millawa 8 for example. Marketingwise those high prices of the main characters may work as a base point to push the bundle price near/over $100. Did in fact never buy a "main character" as a single product but rather opted for the Pro Bundle and just in some rare cases for the Starter Bundle.

    I agree that the store software probably wasn't Daz's biggest problem when it comes to staging sales.

    Yeah.  This seemed pretty good.  I'll check back later to see if anything changes.  There's always the December sales.

    *sigh* and the https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-cb-haze-delta-clothing-set-for-genesis-8-males goes Directly into Lost and Found when being installed (throughSmart Content only)... not to mention it claims to want an update the moment it is installed.... This is the fourth NEW product I have bought recently that goes to Lost and Found category. Has the Q/A stopped working completely or what? Considering I already have tickets on the other products active, I seriously can not be assed to send in another for this one

    I got a banner for 75% off a bundle in which I own EVERYTHING in it lol!

    Actually, I am honestly wondering if the new Store offers ANY improvements. From my current experience, things tend to go even more wront nowadays and performance feels worse than ever. The only difference I noticed was that now the cent fraction amount in cases like BOYB is simply lost to the advantage of the customer.

    Smart Content is really a nice concept, but DAZ itself is jeopardizing that concept with crappy metadata. Some I fix myself (Thanks to RiversoftArt for Content Wizard), for some I raise a ticket. Sometimes I do both.

     I have not bought ANY SINGLE new product this month that did not have metadata issues:

    • metadata just not there, and everything ends up in Lost and Found
    • compatibility base incorrectly set, esp for texture sets and figures and wearables
    • thumbnails missing

    just to name a few. The incorrect compatibility base makes it a hide and seek game to identify the correct materials / settings / poses etc when the product is intended for more than one figure generation (e.g. hair).

    So sad, they DID have an execllent idea with SmartContent, and ruining it with a non-existing QA / QC
