    Well, interesting. Fast Grab is empty. Not 0 out of X items. It's empty! Says no products match the description. I didn't enter one, I used the banner.

    That happens from time to time - especially if they are finding out that FG and a current sale are leading to even lower prices.

    Sometimes they have a rule that sales don't work on FG items (and it does work), sometimes they don't and just empty FG.

    Maybe it is a lot of work to make FG items "salesproof".

    Fainting with happiness over Marshian's new Body of Light set. Solves a LOT of special effects challenges I've been trying to figure out with my superheroes, especially my energy shifters. Thank you. Marshian! 

    And of course, there's all that great Terradome stuff, plus new Arki/Shox. Lord, have mercy! 

    Where are those cookies???

    Here on the Dark Side, cookies are FULL of gluten, FULL of sugar and FULL of things that are bad for you. That's why we're the Dark Side. cheeky 

    Invitation accepted. I am now over the line. Wait... are those cookies gluten-free?

     

    Aww... I'll stay on the dark side, but must pass on the cookies. (Celiac) 

    Ron's flash sale is still going, I may not have the strength to resist a couple of products I resisted yesterday. :/ I just love his brushes. His brushes and shapes and Topaz are must-haves for my Photoshop postwork.

    All I can say is, I can't wait to get home and play. And I will probably be eating beans this week because my budget is going to be shot soon, LOL

    Fast grab changed again. Lots of stuff from my wishlist in there. Trying not to look! 

    EDIT: And now there are blink sales too, on Polish and Dimension-Z- 50% off, or 60% off with new release. The new PC+ items are counting as a new release. The Breakfast Nook is cute and has a lot of items in it (62!) for kitbashing. I love that Bluebird3D always includes those little extras like that. Nice set! And it could be retextured very easily for totally different color schemes, especially with Khory's Neutral Shader Presets.

    If you don't have the NGS Anagenesis 2 Revolution Shaders, they are totally worth it, and a game changer for doing older characters in Iray. They're in the blink sale.

    UPDATE: The Blink sales changed again. Now it's Age of Armor and Chungdan.

    Another blink sale. Abalone LLC (Headshop) and Djigneo (Line Render 9000). 50% off or 60% off with new release.

  • Do items usually go off sale in the middle of business hours? I just looked at my wishlist and now nothing in it is on sale and the prop I was looking at 2 hours ago is off sale too.

    Sometimes. Blink sales usually only last a couple of hours and Fast Grab sometimes changes around 11am DAZ time

    I think this is a store glitch with some FG items and with new releases which aren"t showing their discount on the product page (or in the wishlist); But if you put them in your cart the discount does show up anyway.

    There's something odd happening in the store right now - almost everything on the newest page of the shop is showing full price not 30%. It was fine a while ago. Oddly I see the prices on Fastgrab correctly!

    ETA: Ah I see it was spotted already by Charlie.

  • They seem to have resolved the problem on their end; apparently the post-holiday weeks are when we have disposable income and start slamming their servers. My wishlist now reflects sale items and FastGrab does as well.

  • WonderlandWonderland Posts: 7,137

    I can't keep up with these blink sales LOL. I had stuff in my cart, went to check something, sale over, out of cart... Next, sale, got distracted, sale over... I wish they would post end times...They really ARE blinks!

    Greetings,

    P3Design now.  I actually have a program that emails me when they change the promo links; makes life easier.  That's the first one I've really wanted something from.  (As for Deviney's sale, I have all but 3 out of his 99 products...and one of those is a bundle where I have all the products in it.)

    Generally they last about 2 hours; so the end will propably be a little less than 2 hours from when somebody sees them and posts in the Flash Sale Alerts thread.

    Blink sales usually last about 2 hours each.

  • So happy NGS Anagenessis 2 came back around on the blink sale this afternoon.  I was waiting and waiting for a sale to be able to buy it, and a little peeved I missed the sale this morning.  Bought it before I left work, as I wasn't risking it going off sale again before I got home.

    Is anyone else feeling the "burnout" after so many amazing sales in December? Like.....I was so used to looking every day for the releases and getting all excited with some of the great prices..that now when I look at new releases..I'm kinda disappointed?

  • WonderlandWonderland Posts: 7,137

    Yup. There doesn't seem to be any surprise stacking or huge discounts. I love so many of the new products coming out, but for now they all have little hearts next to them, waiting for bigger sales... I'm tapped out.

    Yup. I did buy some things this month, but mostly it's time to actually play with all the new stuff...

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    Oh. That's a good idea, I never thought of that! Actually play with all the things i bought in December????

    LOL. laugh I still haven't played with all of them.

    I'm trying to play with stuff I bought, but new stuff keeps popping up. I was doing good until yesterday. There were some good deals to be had. I can't figure out what the heck is going on with the trains and dragons. Maybe I need more coffee, but the new releases have nothing to do with either one. That is one very weird sale.

    $18 is very good for the Dragon 3 Pro bundle, but I don't need any of the qualifying items. I think I'm maxed out on female pinup poses. Give us some guy ones! LOL

    I was wondering if anyone was going to comment on it. It's pretty hilarious. I wonder if that's some sort of marketing strategy rule thing - when you don't have anything to put up, just make up some really bad pun that has nothing to do with anything and let the weirdness carry it.

    At least they could have given us a nice terrain (mountain dragon lair, or a place for a dragon ambush for a train).

    Yeah, I was stumped on the sale name too...

    I came up with character poses for sitting on a train, a character with a dragon tattoo, and the PA who created the contemporary loft set sounds like what a dragon must think when he sees a knight...."mmm-human".  I guess the sharp heels would be okay for defending yourself from unwanted attention on a train...probably not so good defense against dragons. Oh, and appropriate expression upon seeing dragon would be this one:

    What? Why you know someone is going to throw a silver shader on those high heels and match it with some armor. LOL

  • LlynaraLlynara Posts: 4,772

    LOL! That is a pretty good expression! I like your story version better than the sales page!

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    That sounds like Every. Daz. Original. Fantasy. Outfit. EVER.
