    It might not be bugs. It's probably some sort of randomly generated for customers...perhaps there's another one coming over the sale duration and it'll go to different people? Like, if there's another base figure sale bit during the PC sale. I already own Eva 7 and I got it - so it obviously doesn't take into account previous buyers of her. Wish I could "pass it on" to someone else cos I obviously won't be taking them up on the offer.

    As a purchaser of at least five G3 Core Characters I get an offer to add a character to build my own bundle - shame I already own it; at that price I might have done it. I'm not even getting the bundle.

    Hmmm I have 13 G3 core characters and I didn't get any offer :/ 

     

    I really am curious how many people are missing out on these orange banners due to bugs and not knowing they were meant to be offered them in the first place. Such a stupid concept.

     

    Having them randomly select people as thanks for completing specific conditions (with a reward offer for something they already own) is some of the most "imaginative" marketing concepts I've ever heard of. I'm sure Daz would never be that "imaginative."

    Also, I already have her too AND she's already on sale today for super cheap what are they thinking.

    I just put her in my cart to test and I'm seeing her for $1.80 (with a new release)

    I'm not even gonna try understand

    Whaa? You can get Eva 7 for $1.80?? How!? That would be AMAZING - the only G3 figure I have is Victoria and I would love to get more for a good price. 

    I have no idea. I put Absolution in cart, added Eva 7 (who I own already anyway) and it came up as 1.80 for her. No orange banner. It was like 96% off.

    Makes no sense at all.

    Yeah that makes no sense. I put a new release in my cart along with Eva 7 and it's only 78% off (which is still nearly $10). Are you using a coupon too?

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    Nope I turned the coupon off to do the test. Maybe I'm getting the banner offer but not being told I'm getting the banner offer and that's interacting with the standard sale offers in some way.

    Honestly I still don't entirely understand the way all of the current sale offers interact as it is let alone once you add the potential of hidden secret invisible orange banners into the mix.

    I added Eva to my cart (Absolution, 2 PC+ freebies, and the build-your-own-bundle of 8, no coupon used, no orange banner - that I've seen, anyway) and she came in at $1.80, so I bought before she changed her mind :) Total order price, $8.80.

    What even... It's still about $10 for me with a new release added - I even tried adding 8 items from the build-your-own-bundle category, but no price change on Eva 7. This is making me really depressed. Maybe you guys have invisible orange banners?

    I'm betting I have an invisible orange banner (note I also didn't do the build your own bundle thing for the test so that's broken too if so) because nothing else explains why that one figure goes to 96% off - none of the rest of the friends of Eva or any other items do.

    No banner here, and I own all bar three of the G3 female bases. Is the offer only for the Eva 7 base? If that's the case I already own her, but if it applies to bundles or other characters I'll hold off to see if the banner appears later.

    Supposedly the offer is "buy 8 items from the Build Your Own Bundle and get Eva 7 for $5". No other characters mentioned.

    Try putting her in your cart with one of today's new releases and see if her price goes berserk for you. I'm guessing they once again messed up for people who own more than 10 G3 figures.

    I"m not a PC+ member and even I got the banner ad. Do I have to join to redeem it?

  • If I put her in my cart she's 2 dollars. Together with a new release (Absolution) she's 1.80. No orange banners spotted yet, not even in my "messages center". But I do own a lot of G3 characters.

    Unlikely. I got the banner and I own all official G3 figures (incl. Eva)

    Thanks for that. I'd put her in my cart but I already own her, so I can't. Seems like I'm not missing anything so. Hopefully there'll be promos for me later on :)

    You can still click the red Purchased button to add an item to your cart. Not sure why you'd want to buy something twice other than for testing but it is doable.

    I did not get the banner, but Eva 7 is showing as just $2 in my cart, no other purchases needed. It drops to 1.80 if I add a new release. I did not have Eva, so needless to say I do now.

    I got Eva 7 for $1.80 also with Absolution in the cart with her.

    My prices are not going down that low at all and I got the orange banner for Eva 7 and already own her...  How are people getting these things for under a dollar? Also, I don't understand the category sales. Everything is $1.99, the regular price for those older items...

    The Eva is going cheap ...probably because of the orange banner or something not entirely sure it just seems to be broken.

    If you mean my screenshot prices, PC coupon.

  • RenomistaRenomista Posts: 921

    I don't understand the Prices for The Featured Artist Items

    I only get 54%

    But with Absolution in the cart i would expect 50% - 20% (PC+ Member) -> 60%

    Oh, OK, I already used my PC coupon. It seems like everyone who got the orange banner already has Eva 7. What is the point of that? Also, new weird stuff showing up in the build a bundle for 20% off...

  • The extra 20% (added to standard plus debut purchase) seem not to work both on Friends of Eva as well as Artist catalogs.

    I don't think the PC+ 20% bonus is applying to featured artist catalogues:

    (see attachments if you want bigger versions)

    I'm seeing a 10% on basically everything related to the sale in some way, then another 10% for a new item? No PC+ 20% boost anywhere. Am I reading it wrong?

    Same with me. Discounts don't add up as intended, I think.

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,182

    That extra 20% is definitely not working correctly.

  • There are some odd deals out there if you search, $188.00 (with a new purchase) is the cheapest I have ever seen Bijou 2 ... but I still cannot afford her.

    In other news there are some new Freebies which are now correctly showing as free. :)

    OMG! I don't think I've ever seen Bijou respond to sale discounts before!

    Speaking of Eva 7: Am I the only person that can't tell the difference between her and Karen 7? Half the time I get the two mixed up.

    That's the primary reason why I'm hesitating on picking her up on sale...

  • I don't really understand why I have the orange banner for $5 Eva 7, when I'm not a PC+ member???? I can't do the build your own bundle thing. So.... I'm confused.
