    Heaven forbid the same problems from last month's changeover are recurring!

    To be fair, it's easy to be taken by surprise by the first day of the month, as it only happens twelve times per year. At most, you get 31 days to plan ahead.

    I don't know what the OS is doing but I went shopping in the main store. I shut off hose items I own and set price 0 to $1. I got 1253 items. 91 were free, one was 45 cents and the rest all 99 cents. I'm guessing you can find the OS items that way or check your wishlist for items at OS/QG price points.

    At least they got the prices updated by the first this time. I sorted by price on the main store page. That gets all of the OS items up to $2.99.  The rest of them get lost among the other sale items. The OS prices will show up in wishlist too. The actual OS list seems have the same issue again. Hopefully it won't take as long to fix it.

    I am pretty sure that the only ones with correct prices are the ones that were in Outlook last month aswell. All the new entries are yet to display their outlook price.

    At a quick glance, I don't see any new entries, so my guess is the new items aren't displayed in the OS at all at the moment. Just the old ones, some of which have the regular price (because they shouldn't be there), and some of which have the OS price (staying in for another month). I did mention it in the reporting thread, because it's way past Daz midday.

    The old OS items are all still there. Only 90 of them are less then $2 (Daz+ price). The store has over 1600 less than $2.

    I don't know quite what's happening. I've put in a filter of $0 to $2 and this is what I get:

    All 47 of them.

    The new selection is visible if you filter the whole store by price, so what's happening is that for some reasons, the Outlet page was not updated with the new selection and kept the old one.

    Which is better that what happened last time when the Outlet page was updated while the price where not (on top of that, the fixed selection was not the same as the buggued one): in the current situation, we can buy the new outlet items, it's just a bit painful to track them (without an extension capable of filtering the store by price range).

    Am I excessively old fashioned in thinking that DAZ shouldn't release a sale until they've tested it AND found it works properly?

    Regards,

     Maybe. Am I old-fashioned for thinking that after the difficulties fixing this issue last month that Daz should have decided to make sure there wasn't a repeat, because September to December is practically back-to-back monthly events so they will have enough troubleshooting without any more OS (or QG glitches)?

    The sale works. It's just the filter for displaying items on the os page seems to be malfunctioning. And there has always been a difference between number of items shown in os/qg and number of os/qg priced items shown in the main store.

     

    You know, web devs aren't supposed to think in terms of pages. They must view it all as a gigantic app. So when stuff like this happens, it's not just "check the code for that page." It's probably some sort of conflictt between what's needed for os and something else on the site. What should be simple is some sort of nested logic error and good luck finding it.

     

    Could you imagine if Amazon ran this way? I expect we'd have some other company as king of online retail.

  • Daz is aware of the issue and is looking into it, but it isn't going to be an instant fix unfortunately.

    I'll take that as a form of oblique confirmation.
