    I guess that's for featured deep freeze items: http://www.daz3d.com/friday-april-22-featured-deep-freeze-items when bought with the 4 new-look release.

    Anyone know how this 75% is calculated? I'm not seeing anything like that. (It's in today's Newsletter)

     

    Ah, silly me - I missed that line in the Deep-Freeze section blush

    I'm wondering what/where the crazy diacounts on PC + items are. And the banner says the PC+ sale excludes PC items *head scratch*

     

    edit: too early in the morning for me. So PC+ sale is only for non members. Got it, I think

    Ooer, another minor glitch - it's supposed to be 50% off DAZ originals for members (30% off for non-members) but the 50% off is showing for non-members too.

    And it's late at DAZ.

    And it's the weekend...

    edit - sorry, was just semi-login weirdness

    I'm not seeing this, when I'm logged out I see 30% off.

    Ah, ignore the above, it's wrong. I was looking on a PC where I'm both not logged in and logged in at the same time. So on that one I can't look at my account, wish list, etc (login box shows); nor comment on the forums. But the store pages show my discounts and the little man at top right is blue with a check mark instead of plain white.

    So I've just given you duff information but may have discovered something useful related to the tedious login issues that still occur from time to time.

    Not a single comment on the "Massive April Noun Sale". Perhaps everyone was too busy buying.

    I boycotted it on grammatical grounds. Cute and Flity Poses? C'mon.

    The massive April adjectives which can currently be applied to my purse and bank account are what stopped me participating in the Massive April Noun Sale. 'Empty'... 'Bare'... 'Drained'... 'Barren'...! :)

    It did not made so much sense for me.

    I had some stuff form the People and Places Category I'm interested in but nothing in the Things Category.

    And all those Items (including 2 Related Artists Items I would have got from my Wishlist (i13 stuff that was blocked by "Newness" during MM)) is nothing I need right now and for that 50% is not so tempting especially if I need to buy a "Thing" that i do not really need to trigger it

    So I wishlisted the 3 Items (Janya, Theater, Casino)

    You didn't need a thing from each category to get the extra discount. If you had 4 items from just one group, that works as well.

    That not how it is worded:

    "

    50% off “Noun Sale” new releases!

    With purchase of 1 or more new release(s) from ALL 3 groups below*

    40% off “Noun Sale” new releases!

    With purchase of 1 or more new release(s) from 2 groups below*

    30% off “Noun Sale” new releases!

    With purchase of 1 or more new release(s) from 1 group below*

    "

     

    And Just tested it, no you really need one from each category to get 50%

    "Seriously The Best Fantasy Collection Ever!"

  • NathNath Posts: 2,940

    There are some nice things in there, but they'll have to wait until next month's budget.

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    There are some nice things, and more Mec4d shaders are a must get (eventually) but the title just makes me laugh.

  • Oso3DOso3D Posts: 15,085

    I'm still a little confused as to how the merchant resource differs from vol 1, myself. Hmm.

     

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    I think that there are more varieties and details for the metals, but I haven't bought it myself yet and I'm not entirely sure either. I also don't really get how the detailing patterns works but I gather that wasn't part of the original pack (or I just haven't noticed it to use it in the first one.)

    In the same boat! Hit some great sales, but now purse and bank account are empty. Time to wishlist and play with what I've got!

    Today's "Build your own bundle" sale I'd have thought would be buy x new releases for discounts, but it actually says:

    BUY THIS MANY ITEMS FROM ARTIST CATALOGS BELOW*

    (with the * saying doesn't include new releases.)

    So keep in mind that the cart totals might not be the same as expectations depending on what wizardry is involved in getting the discount.

     

  • RenomistaRenomista Posts: 921

    I belive this is just badly spelled out. But cant tell you roght now since i have 4 of the new releases (i13 expressions, hinkyhunks, scooter, kimono) as well as 6 non new items from the artist catalogs in the cart. In this combo everything calculates correctly.

    Even thought i had expected a bit more under the "Build your own Flash Sale" title this is easyly the best sale in the last week an i'm very happy i did not get my i13 backlog with the "Noun Sale".

    The current large Fastgrab an Yesterdays Lyoness Flash Sale are/were also very nice. Got quite a bit nice stuff yesterday.

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    Oh that's good. It's just the banner that's confusing then.

    I think it's a nice change. Granted, qualifying products are only with the featured PAs, but it shouldn't be too difficult for a person to find things they actually want to trigger the discounts. And to have additional discounts on the new releases based on the number of back-catalog products in your cart? Very nice, indeed. I hope DAZ has more sales like this one.

    It works backwards to most DAZ sales - you have to buy old content if you want to get a discount on the new items. Of course you can just ignore the new stuff altogether if you like, and buy the old content for its own sake (at a reasonable discount if you buy 4 items).

  • I grabbed in the fantasy sale the Chateau Blanche - read from others you get full interior as well as the exterior plus full landscape and skydome and highly detailed, the wound makeup bundle-thought be handy should have some characters wounded in my fantasy/scifi scenes, fantasy features bundle - closest thing to creature creator 3 when/if that ever gets done seems to have fair few choices, and mech4's new metal shaders - well just cause they are handy and good

    Just a heads up: in the current sale (the form of opulence) if you buy a new item and get a pose set for free, the free pose set counts for the "build your own flash sale" sale.

    I have 4 ironman13 items in my cart with a new opulence release, and one of them is a poseset that comes for free. That still counts as a 4th item from ironman13 catalogue, cranking up the dicount to 60%. If you delete it from cart, the price jumps up 3 dollars or so.

    Also, I think ironman13 items have already a 30% discount or so, even when they're not DO's. I have now a total discount of 77%.

    Good Catch! I got my i13 backlog 2 days ago allready.

    Today "Frebiee" is nice even thought the selection of interesting stuff was a bit limited since I allready own quite a few things from that list...

  • Well, at first I thought we could only choose from the list on the promo page, which indeed was very limited. But then I found the "click for full list" button. There is quite some good stuff there.

  • RenomistaRenomista Posts: 921

    The 30% new item discount seems to be missing for todays Cybernetic new Items.

    intentionaly or glitch?

  • fixmypcmikefixmypcmike Posts: 19,683

    Cybernetic ones have them now, the other new releases don't yet.

    Seems like they already released items again for tomorrow?

    and a bunch more? (good thing I know now that the dirt shader is coming soon, I have set money back for that.

    Infinite Insanity indeed.

    Woke up this morning and excitedly saw a 4 hour flash sale for two PA''s that had items I dearly wanted. Logged into my account only to find the main Daz page change and the sale was over!

    Yet AGAIN these sales had seemingly occurred while the GMT timezone half of the world was sleeping.

    I fully understand that flash sales are exactly that....GONE IN A FLASH.... ( 4 hours in this case)....but it would be nice if  the same sale was made available now the other half of the world is awake to take advantage of it. 

    Oh well, will have to wait for yet another sale opportunity for these PA''s.  Sadly for me and the PA''s concerned it was a lose-lose situation.  crying
