    So the question is, are the cost of THESE PARTICULAR items, on sale now, going TO IMPROVE?

    If I see something I like - is it possible to get it for cheaper later in the month or are these itmes as low as it gets....?

    And different items will be going on sale later in the month?

     

    And...and...are there straight % sales like 60% off + 20% on whatever items we want? Or is it always going to be limited to certain vendors...

     

    There are usually "catch up sales" at the end of big Daz sales events, so anything you don't buy now will probably be available at the same price later. Besides which, 50% off is nothing special as a discount - you'll have multiple opportunities to buy any product you like at that discount if you're willing to wait for a suitable sale to come along.

  • Now is a good time to be subscribed to all of ATI's e-mail notifications and to keep close tabs on incoming e-mail from him. :) 

  • BTW, one of the FG items http://www.daz3d.com/light-2-life-light-gels-for-iray is triggering as a second MM item and getting an additional discount for me

    So I just got a banner ( in cart only ) that I'm a marchmadness bonus buyer? Additional 10% off storewide, additional 30% on sku lower than 16000, additional 30% on runtime dna

    I bought godrays this morning from fastgrab

    what's the 10% based on and can I get it higher?

    I bought Peach Fuzz from Fastgrab and got the same banner. But only after I went looking for it thanks to your post and refreshed and checked offers several times.

    I think it's safe to say no one has any idea if it'll go higher or how it works right now.

    Thanks for the heads up. The green banner popped up when I went into messages to see if I received that offer from Daz.  Off to file an unexpected store credit request with CS!

    Edit: There is no "Exclusive Offer" in messages. That banner offer now displays at the top of the screen most times when I'm in the Daz Store.

    Yup. I picked up the same and I see the same banner as well. It is nice - but it is mostly affecting what I consider "discretionary wishlist items." 

    And I have to hang onto the cash I have for must-have items, so as tempting as it is on some of the items that are in my "kinda want," list... I'm going to have to be strong.

    No banner here yet, but that means less temptation...hopefully!

  • Searched for Pro 5 and got this, with an interesting header. The prices in the cart do not reflect the header, but maybe they're prepping for this one to hit.

    No banner here or anything in messages... Maybe it's only for people who already bought something from MM?

    Correction, it's 10% OR the 30%'s, not additional, my bad

    I had no banner (and didn't know about such) and I just bought something (new but not MM). Then, banner. Not the ideal order of events, but nice nevertheless.

  • I just got a banner myself, and all I bought today was marble shader set out of fast grab. I don't know what the qualification is but I'll take it. And others who have the banner check the March Madness page for an extra goodie! laughyes

    Sounds like the trigger may be  buying something today.

    How long is it good for? Does it say? And curious what the "extra goodie" is... I'm wondering if it's worth buying something new to hopefully get the banner...

    @Wonderland Check your PMs smiley

    Thanks for info :) Weird marketing strategy though. If people are getting discounts and freebies for buying something new, you'd think they'd announce it to encourage more sales rather than making it a secret thing...

    I agree honestly. I've never really understood why the banners need to be some kind of state secret. It's not like the discount disappears if other people know about it.

  • @ Wonderland see your PMs again.

  • I feel like I'm missing out on PMs. 

    I want some PMs! Now I feel like there is a whole other level of secret shopper deals I am missing out on! 

  • lx_2807502lx_2807502 Posts: 2,996

    All this ridiculous secrecy and then members having to secretly pm each other to figure out how things work really is taking the sale game to a whole new level of being an obscure game.

     

  • As for the secret freebie - I've got mixed emotions. I want to just throw it into my cart and have it... 

    But I feel like, as it is a New Item and part of the March Madness intro sale... I should wait as MAYBE later I'll be able to use it as a qualifying purchase to get stacking discounts. 

    It is like Pavlovian conditioning. I'm sitting here in the corner shaking and drooling uncontrollably every time the guys in Daz marketing ring a bell.

    Trying viral marketing? Maybe they'll catch a cold. ;-)

    I finally caved and bought FaceGen the other day while it was still on sale, apparently that wasn't enough. And I did buy all the new freebie textures. Must be a new item from today.

    Correction: looks like any item. I bought Beachfront Promenade Poses for 2.79, which I wanted anyhow and it immediately popped up.

    Not necessarily; but probably at least something over $1. The only thing I bought today was the Marble shaders from FG and I got a banner

    Well yay, I feel special again! LOL

    As for the secret freebie -

    Wut freebie? surprise
