    Don't Miss These Staff Picks Savings

    Amp up your asset library with this bundle of Daz leading ladies! Because you've already started a Staff Picks Bundle collection, enjoy an EXTRA 12% OFF Leading Ladies Staff Picks Bundle.

    I get a 12% discount on a bundle I already own 80% of the items? Wow, that is really a generous offer. 

    Same for me. Even with the extra 12% it is $75 for a bundle that I already own all but 2 of the items. NO THANKS !!!

     This promotion is a straight discount and doesn’t take into account what is already owned. You can buy just the item(s) in question or wait for a “pay for what you don’t own" sale.

    Today's main item, the Leading Ladies Staff Picks Bundle is not listed in the store: https://www.daz3d.com/shop/ at least not on the first page. I haven't checked the rest of the pages. :D

    Daz let us know that there is an issue with the pricing of the two products, dForce Aurea Regina Outfit for Genesis 8.1 Female and dForce Romantic Gentleman Outfit for Genesis 8 and 8.1 Males and if you paid the higher price to submit a ticket to get back the difference.

    Hi there, did that, but haven't heard anything back yet, nor received the refund ...

    The current Fantasy Flash sale does not apply the stacking percentage. Why?

    Also I'm offered 80% of the Racing Bundle whereas I own most of the items. The items I don't own are less if I add up their prices to what I should still pay for the bundle. Makes not that much sense.

    It should probably say no stacking, it is a FastGrab-size discount, I've flagged the lack of a note.

    Considering that - if I counted it right - EIGHT items of the bundle are DAZ+ items the price asked for it is anything but a "FastGrab-size discount" IMHO. devil

    Don't forget to mention the third option: You can also decide not to buy these items ever, due to disagreement with marketing behaviour.

    Same here. I am really wondering if nobody at DAZ realizes how much business they loose with those "new" policies. Back in the days, they made me buy the bundles (despite never needing them) BECAUSE I owned so much of it.

    I was replying to the first paragraph, about the flash sale, not the second, about the bundle. Sorry.

    Was about to buy some things but the store updating had not caught up to the cart.

  • Anybody knows how to get the announced "up to 20%" gift card reduction with the regency bundle (https://www.daz3d.com/live-in-luxury-regency-era)?

    I put both into the basket - gift card price didn't change as expected...???

  • Does todays sale not have a promo page with further details?

    Nothing to see = nothing to buy. They'd better fix it.

    Hmmm ... there may be bigger problems. I wanted to use my Daz+ coupon (which is working) ... but the checkout is not (cannot get the correct address / email working). Will have to wait and see.

    I've yet to see one of these "staff picks" collections that wasn't a spit in the eye to regular buyers.  On the other hand, as the actual discount value of DAZ bundles has continued to plummet over the last few years, it's long since hit the point where one gets a better deal just waiting for regular sales.

    https://www.daz3d.com/kacc-character-cameras-starter-bundle is in the starter bundle sale and should be 80% off with coupon 80SAVINGS, but the coupon does not work on this item.

    As you can probably guess, it was not meant to be part of the sale. Sorry.

    This one was later discounted to allow for items previously purchased (and ended up being a good deal for me even though I had purchased most of the things I wanted - a reflection, I think, of the number of iconic/core/whatever characters it contained and that I already owned).

    Er... the original poster specifically noted that they'd been offered the discount and that it was a ridiculuously small amount compared to what they already had.  The problem is that the "staff" (I'm using "" as it could possibly be an algorithm,) making these bundles apparently has very little product or customer awareness, as they inevitably "pick" items that have been already bundled, often multiple times, while at the same time tying many of the key daily discounts to the purchase of a bundle that is statistically likely to be at least partially owned by a large percentage of the potential buying pool.  That doesn't just make the staff pick bundle itself less likely to sell, it also nullifies most of the attraction that said tied discounts might have had.  I often wonder if DAZ really doesn't understand that the products they sell aren't like potato chips or ballpoint pens, where ordering the same item over and over is normal behavior...

    There was an inital discount for owning other staff pick bunmdles, not for owning items in this aprticular bundle. later they also added a pro rata discount for owning parts of the bundle.

    Are you referring to the Leading Ladies Staff Pick Bundle? If so, I never got a pro rated discount for owning all but 2 of the items.

    It kicked in later, I got an onsite message. You might want to open a sales support ticket.

    ..so, question here, does the use of either Daz+ coupon disqualify a purchase from advancing the stack up percentage (like the DO 6$ one if it brings the net purchase below the 10$ minimum?

    It's still not offering it as far as I can tell.   I have all but two items as well, never received an orange bar, no discount applies if put in the cart, and I've never seen any advertisment of that fact elsewhere.

    Sounds like a typical store SNAFU, but how many people have an unused coupon this late in the month to check?  I sure don't... blush

    ...I do, had a fairly busy month outside of Daz and there wasn't much offered that I was interested as I don't use dForce or G8.1.

    I haven't clicked on the "Place Order" button yet as the net value of the items in the cart come to only 7.50$.

     Same here. I never got any message and any time I tried there never was any discount for owning all but two of the items. And as far as opening a sales ticket after my last experience with my ticket for the missing discount I'm sure it would be worthwhile.

    I do!  I usually wait as long as possible...unless there's something I absolutely want that I can use a coupon with.

  • day 4 of streaking, and the discount is still missing after making a (large enough) purchase each day. Is anyone else experiencing this ?
