    There were some that weren't working earlier, but I can't remember which ones. Any more, if they're not right, they don't stay in my cart. Tired of doing the math!

    I calculate the percentage I should be seeing, by subracting the percentages from a base of 100. Then I trust in the Overdrawn/Ati Daz Deals add on to show the discount in my cart. A lot less math. For example, the 40%/50%w/nr, no other discounts, works out to 65% with my Loyalty discount. If I put a product in my cart, for example an older Stonemason product that should be getting the "40%/50%w/nr" discount but isn't, I don't have to do any calculations, I just see that it isn't at 65% and I know the discounts aren't working.

    Can somebody confirm whether the superhero 50%\60% off with a new release items discount is working correctly? The prices seem too high to me, like the extra 10% isn't coming off, but with so many discounts going on, my head is reeling. 

    The discount for those, with any new release should be 60%, but only coming up at 50%:

    • with loyalty discount of 25%, should be 70% off
    • with loyalty discount of 30%, should be 72% off
    • with loyalty discount and Stonemason's Containment Zone (+ another new release,) should be 73% and 75%, respectively

    With a loyalty discount of 30%, Containment Zone and Monique 7 also in the cart, I'm seeing only 68% on the item I put in my cart from the 2013-2015 Superhero Selection page.

    ETA: There are quite a few Daz Originals on the Superhero page. If you're a PC+ member, there is an extra 30% in there::

    • DO with loyalty discount of 25%, should be 79% off
    • DO with loyalty discount of 30%, should be 80% off
    • DO with loyalty discount and Stonemason's Containment Zone (+ another new release,) should be 81% and 82%, respectively

    Note: The Daz Deals add on does not show partial percentages. When the discounts get really high, the actual percentages can be more or less than shown by several tenths of a percent.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to elaborate on this. My gut said something was off, and my calculations said the same. I've submitted tickets, but who knows if they'll be corrected. Stonemason's discounts are very varied, they seem to stack on some promotions and not on others, with no obvious logic. 

  • Let me just say, "Thanks to all of you for your support in these trying times."  Now, I don't have to feel quite so ashamed for getting up at 1AM just to check the new sales banners.  ;)

    Man, I'd be excited if I were in charge of Daz marketing and just saw someone write this.

    Let's face it, they own us. Or at least our wallets!

    You're welcome.

    I hadn't seen any of the previous promotions' discounts stacking since DAZ Midnight. But a quick check of Stonemason's catalog show the discounts now, except for one stubborn product that I've seen others complaining about all week, the Abandoned City 2, that's suppose to be 60%/70% off from Monday's 2015 Best Seller list, http://www.daz3d.com/monday-december-12th-featured-2015-top-sellers.

    Not sure about any other PA catalogs.

    ETA: Just put several of Stonemason's products in my cart. Those with discounts other than 40% showing on the catalog page should be 10% higher because of a new release in my cart. Some are stacking nicely, but newer items showing 50% in his catalog are not stacking. Should be 60% plus 50% plus my loyalty discount, but they are only applying the 50%... I'm just going to give up on getting any of Stefan's back catalog. Or anything else that isn't stacking correctly.

    You forgot one very important part: "May be habit forming."

    I believe that should be required on all DAZ Logos;)

    laugh HAH!

  • Yup... I'm at 30% extra discount too. 

    Evidently DAZ knows you CAN squeeze blood from a turnip. 

    LOL...pretty soon it's going to be difficult for me to by anything at a 99% discount.  I thought I was cleaning out my wishlist over these past couple of sales.  But, it's actually gone up in number!  Then, I turn on the PC today and looke at the new Stonemason item and the extra morphs, and I'd really like to take advantage of the discount on G3 Aging Morphs....Yikes!  It doesn't matter anymore if the price is $0.10 per item.  I still have a hard time not emptying my bank account on this stuff...LOL

    Yup. My experience exactly. My wishlist has gone up... I have most of the things I always really needed... just a few more of those remaining out there - but my list of WANTS has gone up exponentially. :)

    A couple of Stonemason's items stack nicely for a great in cart price. I don't do much SciFi stuff but I couldn't resist the Mech 2012 Enforcer at that price.

    The Day-One-Bonus is only working to make ONE item free, not two, with a new release in the cart.

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    It's such a nice offer - shame I already bought all the new releases I wanted yesterday, but no big deal.

    Picking from 4,000 products for just 1-2 is really hard though o.o (this is a good problem to have not a complaint more wow thanks Daz)

    This is worrying. I presume Daz Midnight refers to the time-difference due to where Daz offices are and how many hours they are behind GMT?

    The thought Daz midnight might bare some relation to Daz-soon, however, is truly scary. cheeky

  • FYI, the Treehouse appears to be one of the possible freebies and will negate the others in your cart if you're buying up Stonemason items.  However, Modular Ruins works fine.

    Looking through them, I found 2 sets of FeralFey's $1.99 PC+  pin-up poses for V6  that I  somehow had overlooked.  I'm just going to buy them seperately with my Loyalty discount... smiley

  • Super Stonemason Bargains 

    Modular Ruins

    City Ruins Bundle

    Sci Fi Bedroom

    Path to Cloud Temple

    Sci Fi Interior 201

    Under the Overpass

    Mech 2012 Enforcer

    All these are at better than 85 percent discount with new Containment Center and Holiday Loyalty.  So, if you thought about picking any of them up, now's the time. :)

    Also, pretty much everything else in Stonemason's catalog works out to 70 percent off!  I only wish that I had the cash to scoop up about 10 more items. 

    As it is...I'm really stretching things, even with the discounts.

    Aaargh. Why does everything go on massive sale when I have no money? LOL. I'm calling it "DAZ Law" instead of Murphy's Law, I think. 

  • I almost forgot...Iray Clouds is at 88 percent off with discounts....LOL  That was what I went to look at in the first place.

    Wow, lots of good deals today! I bought that Distinguished pose collection a few days ago for a lot more, thinking that was a great deal. You just never know around here when the prices are going to drop even more! How do you even resist Stonemason and Ironman stuff for $2-$3???

    EDIT: Beware of things popping in and out of your cart. I just realized I do NOT have Stonemason's After the War, which was given away for free on Dec 8 or 9. I remember getting it, and posting on the thread thanking Stonemason and DAZ. I checked my Product Library and it's not there. I checked all my orders. Nope. There were some weird cart issues around that time and somehow it must've fallen out before I checked out. Ugh. But with the discounts today it's only $5, so I'll probably just buy it.

    Well I had to blow the dust of a couple of wish list items before they'd go in the cart. wink

    More great deals on Ironman and Stonemason. Some mentioned before, some not. I don't really need a Houseboat with Poses or a Dean's Office, but for around $3 each they're tempting. So is Late Night Fantastic at $2. I remember when Under the Overpass and Our Lost Future came out not too long ago. The discounts on those are crazy.

    OMG, how you do say no to these? Will power is fading...

  • Day One Release is working for only one free item in the cart, not two, for me too - with a new release in the cart. 

    My only guess is that with 40,000 items going on, I've got more than two items that are on the list in my cart, and I don't know which one is the third item that is making the coupon not work. 

  • That was it. I figured that RDNA WinterLands Vol3 was probably in the "free with coupon" discount category, removed it, and the coupon worked. 

  • That was it. I had 3 items from the Free Discount list in the cart. I removed the 3rd one, and the coupon worked.

    Well, it's going to be a Merry Christmas for all of my book and 3D characters. There's a serious party going on in my runtime! They've got more stuff than they can ever wear or use. I haven't even started shopping for the "real" characters in my life!

    OMG I need to really think about what I need for this holiday sale. I used to adopt the 'buy now think later' philosophy, but that really hurt my wallet during March Madness :(

    Yeah, the really awesome thing with all those i13 environments is that they come with matching poses.  So, even if you don't need the environment, you still get a useful set of poses.  That Neighborhood Bar set is also worthwhile for posing in a Medieval Tavern...etc.

    Yikes!  I was trying to make this an off day for buying.  But, I'm really having a hard time not just putting everything in my cart.

  • I'm resisting. They're great prices - but do I really need a houseboat or another hotel room? i13's stuff is awesome, and very rarely discounted. I've spent too much money though.
