    This is weird, and I don't know how it happened. I had pared my shopping cart down to $100.00, with none of todays deals in it - (Jazlyn, Toon Amy, The Studio, - stuff like that) and when I added Sandy Getaway, the price dropped to $68.00! So of course, I bought it. Still don't understand, as far as I know, Sandy Getaway wasn't part of any really special deals.

    These sales are too frikkin' confusing. Too random.

    There's a bit of overlap with the PAs from today's sale and May 23rd's sale. For instance, Silvaant3d is one of the overlapping PAs.

    another chiming in to say I don't have Mei lin 7 but will take her for free so I could take advantage of the other offer with some integrity ;)

    I just wish I'd added a couple of the currently full-priced items that I really want just to see what happened! *sigh* Still waiting for them to go on sale...

    Same for me... for a moment this morning, I thought I bought Mei Lin 7 accidentally.

    I had to double check, too, since I also got the two offers for my purchase of Mei Lin 7. Looking at my purchase history, I find that I did not purchase Mei Lin 7, either intentionally or accidentally.

    I thought I was having a senior moment and had to check my product library to confirm I didn't purchase Mei Lin 7.  I'm currently working on a resolution to trying not to buy anything (saving for a couple of must haves due to be released in the near future) but the sales tend to get me so was relieved that banners didn't actually apply to me.:))

    The offer is also good for purchasers of Mei Lin 6

    We do try to remove discussion of targeted offers, because some people do get annoyed to hear that someone else is getting an offer that they aren't, while others don't notice that the discussion is about targeted offers and complain that it isn't working for them.  We don't always get to such posts fast enough, however, and as some have noted, people get annoyed at having their posts removed, also.  And as can be seen in this thread, even when there are multiple targeted offers going on at once, there are still people who don't get any of them, or who are disgruntled because they didn't get the best offer.

    What comes around, goes around. I don't get upset about missing a special offer, because I know that I'll receive offers that others won't get. It all evens out. I believe that most of us understand this, witness the preponderance of joking over complaining. It's really no big deal, Mike.

    These sales are like a crazy game, half strategy, half roulette!

    LOL... That's the perfect description!

    Tat's why I keep saying that part of the DAZ marketing campaign is based on the work of P.T.Barnum. :-)

    Is it possible the offer was coded with just "Mei Lin"? surpriseblush

    I wouldn't want to present speculation as fact, but I'd bet money that someone got a kick up the bum for that. ;-)

    Yes, that's why that quote from Richard is at the top of my post.

    Seriously, an offer for buyers of an ancient Genesis 2 figure? OK then.

    Seems more like a happy accident tbh :) Sometimes Daz is good about that though.

    Yeah I was surprised when this one survived so long. But I think this thread ended up helping a few users who were pretty sad pandas.

    I am getting discount banners and messages thanking me for buying a product which I didn't.  I think all these rotating discounts has made the DAZ3D system go loopy! :)

    +1

    Loopy! LOL

    ETA: I saw Richard's message about Mei Lin 6. I do own her. But I'm tapped out for the month and have to pass on the generous offer...

    " As a thanks for being one of our best customers, we hereby offer you these 10 items for only $1 each!"

    "Thanks, but because I'm one of your best customers, I already have these 10 items..."

    I get that, but as this and many of the other threads have shown, these offers are often so confusing (and also commonly broken) that it helps if we can find out if others are experiencing the same issues.

    While I'm not going to buy things just in case I get a bonus offer for doing so, I don't begrudge anyone else for getting one for buying something they love (also I do own Mei Lin 6 and 7~) I feel like it's a bit too complicated and breaks too much without really helping draw in new customers, but that's just my opinion. I really liked the offers last month to get V7 and the G3F morph packs for ultra cheap - even though I already owned all of the things and wouldn't benefit from it personally - when it was offered on the store, but hated the same offer being given in selected forum posts the day before. I guess overall I just like open strategies over ones that encourage secrets.

    I got that as well. I clicked on the link to show the $1 items and got an empty page. Here we go again, I thought, another offer not working, then I thought to un-tick the "hide items I own" box.

    I suppose it shows I buy far too much stuff here smiley
