    Just a reminder: Today is the last day of Outlet Store before new selection arrives.

    IF Daz keeps up the same pattern. I think I've gotten most of what I had wishlisted, as punch buy-ins. (I am Base, so the lowest work for me.)

    Also worth keeping in mind: some of the recent QG 99-cent options were previously $1.99 in Outlet, then cycled out. So if you're on the fence about something and don't mind losing the gamble...

    (eta: all prices in D+)

    Hm. An hour and change past changeover, and it doesn't look like anything is different about the Outlet... but also the days' new releases don't seem to be updating with their sale price, so it might be the whole system is just drunk/hungover in honor of the holiday. =P

    I'm not sure that there has been a change in the Outlet store. If there are items rotated out/in I don't think I can identify them. All the items I had wishlisted to keep track of them are still in the Outlet. Regards, Richard.

    why are people so convinced that Outlet will change over today? I didn't think that every changeover so far had happened an exact/specific number of days after the previous one

  • richardandtracyrichardandtracy Posts: 7,302
    Not convinced, just speculating. It seems to have changed with the month a couple of times, but it is possible that the changeover is actually the nearest working day to the month changeover. Or it's when someone in DAZ feels the need, or their cat's had a furball. DAZ's lack of clarity on the way it's done is prompting the speculation, as people like to believe there is a system and things are not completely random. Regards, Richard.

    My best guess observation so far seems to be in anticipation of big sales, which often coincide with the beginning of the month.

    Given most of the DOs got yoinked ahead of the Advent Calendar going live, and that promotion is over, it would seem logical that the inventory would shift today (or soon) in deference to that.

    Some good stuff in the $3.49 to $4.99 range, if you don't already have them...

    How do you guys find them? I feel I'm only sifting through pages and pages of Instyle textures ...

    I can only recommend to install @Utiltarian's extra filters:

    https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/742841/extra-shop-filters-bookmarklet/p1

    You can then either set the SKU range or price range. The former is straightforward, just type the first and last SKU separated by a '-' (ex: '30000-76000'), the later is not that hard but you have to type the price in cents, not in dollars: if you want to filter all items between $3.49 and 4.99, you have to type '349-499'.

    Price range can be very useful if you want to use the categories of the shop (they don't always work correctly when re-activated by the extra filters), so if you want to see the environnements, you go to https://www.daz3d.com/environments, you activate the extra filters and then my advice is to do it price level by price level, so first you set the price range to 99-99 to see only the 0.99 items, then 199-199, then 349-349 and finally 499-499.

    This way, you're almost sure to view only outlets items.


    If someone is looking from a street facing porch, for $1.99, this one by Sloshwerks is great:

    https://www.daz3d.com/sw-cottage-porch

    It's a Daz Originals, so a Premier member can likely get more than a 92% discount when all the planets are aligned, but as a no buy and no tokens price, it's pretty great.

     I just sort by price. The good stuff won't likely be $0.99 or $1.99, but I will scan through them all once a month.

  • tsroemitsroemi Posts: 3,525

    Thanks @Elor and @NorthOf45, I already to the price sorting when going through the Outlet. But it's still a lot of pages to trudge through, not knowing where the newly put in items will be. I guess there just isn't an easier way. 

    I didn't really find much stuff, I guess I own what I'd have liked already.

  • NorthOf45NorthOf45 Posts: 5,721

    I guess I own too much already, there's *only* 17 of 54 pages of content left for me to trudge through...

    Yeah, I've gotten to the point where I just see if anything from my wishlist dropped to Outlet prices and leave it at that unless there's a compelling reason to look through (like for sale terms that would benefit me and I'm short an item of the required 5, or something).

    This only works as a system because I've gone through the various sections of the store and wishlisted anything I'm interested in. And yeah, sometimes an item will pop up in QG and I'll be all "well, wasn't on my radar, but for a buck, what the heck" but that's a level of effort I'm willing to make. Browsing the Outlet store as it stands just doesn't give the return on investment I'm after.

    I see some top-end bundles I like, and cheers to that!

    ...sigh... now you've got me curious and I'm going to have to go check "show only bundles" and poke around. =P 

  • SilverGirlSilverGirl Posts: 3,138

    Quick reminder to grab any QGs you want from this week before they cycle out!

  • SilverGirlSilverGirl Posts: 3,138

    ...aaaaaand repopulation for QG is delayed again.

    Sigh.

    Yeah, the on time was short-lived

    I have just noticed an item in the outlet that I've been wanting for a while. 

    The males in my renders are there just to be boorish or be bewildered when having rings run around them by the much more intelligent females (this is so much like at home, it's uncanny...). I have found that two males is plenty to fulfil ths role and I have bought 2 (ouch) and recieved a couple extra as freebies over the years. As a result, I don't generally check for male stuff being on sale, so it was pure chance that I didn't have any filters set when browsing the Outlet, and saw Scar 8's HD details offered for sale. Been wanting them for a goodly while, without putting a particularly high priority on them. So, by the end of the month Scar can be even more grumpy looking when he has the females intellectually leave him for dust. Pleased about this.

    The character I have purely to be boorish is Michael 8, though he has been useful illustrating parallel bars poses when Scar was the wrong shape to be believable doing it (too musclebound and too massive to be a gymnast as they tend to be fairly small with a different muscle shape and location) .

    Regards,

    Richard

    @richardandtracy Hooray for a spontaneous wish from the Outlet! I hope you have fun with your find. :)

  • joannajoanna Posts: 2,355

    Not me, sitting and checking the time in hopes that Quick Grab will refresh at Daz midday. Anyone else waiting? xD

    I think everyone is.

    It's just the matter of "will it restock at Daz midday or is there another issue that will have to be reported again." 

  • memcneil70memcneil70 Posts: 5,455

    Huh, me too. 'calculating'? Normally I only see less than a page of items I don't own. Quick scan and I am done. Outlet has never changed since day one. Nothing for me. Saving my gift card. Nice.

  • TorquinoxTorquinox Posts: 4,407

    QG is noticeably late. Maybe later, maybe tomorrow. surprise 

  • AinmAinm Posts: 754

    Some very nice items in QC. I don't know whether I'm glad or sad that I've already bought many of the items I like best.

  • 3DSaga3DSaga Posts: 693

    Quick Grab was worth the wait today- several things I'm happy to buy!

    Agreed! I had the Zeddicuss poses already (some from previous QG, some not) but even with that I tagged (or already had wishlisted) 14 items I'm interested in! Been quite a while since that happened! (All but two of them were in the 99-cent category, too!)

    I'm encouraged to see the dwarf outfit texture add-on in there, as I've notced there have been several times the texture set arrived a week or two ahead of the base. That's one of those outfits that's been sitting on my WL for ages because I like it, but don't have an immediate use for it, but could see having a use for it eventually...

    I'll wait till tomorrow night to hit the 'go' button so I can maximize the amount of time my tokens have before they expire, but overall it was a lovely selection to wake up to!
