What Happened To Software Flash Sale

I was about to purchase a couple items on my wishlist, only for the 50% discount on software items to suddenly vanish! What happened? It's just after 9:00 PM where I am!

    Did you try putting the item in your cart?

    I put some shaders in the cart and then went to the cart.  The 50% was applied in cart.

    That did it. Sorry. That's what I get for having a coronary the instant I see bargains evaporate without fully checking the facts...

    And for future referrence...flash sales are just that...BAM! They're gone!

    Never could figure out how long they are supposed to last, because no two of them ever seem to last the same amount of time.

    I am aware of how Flash Sales work. I just thought that this one had expired before the midnight deadline.

    My only comment on this is that I've figured out that if there is something I'm on the fence about, The sale ends the second I click away to think about it for a few. If there is nothing I'm interested in included in the sale, It'll last for an additional week.

    That sounds about right...

    ...yeah, still have FilterForge on the wishlist. Seems whenever it does go on sale, I have no money to spare.

    Just took a look at Filter Forge, and wow, it certainly looks useful. Is it a merchant's resource?

    Yes, but the filter creators get rather perturbed if you just use their filters, especially their presets, to just knock out stuff to sell.  Always a good idea to spend some time with the filters and make them your own in some way.

    Fair enough. I'll have to put that one on my wish list.
