    HEY an explanation from Daz_Steve

    "If you buy something from March Madness you become a bonus buyer.  It gives you an additional discounts for a few days.  If you buy anything else during that period you stay a bonus buyer. the 10% works on gift cards, memberships, everything.  If the item has an SKU under 16000 the 10% becomes 30%.  This is on top of any other discounts or offers.
    Any non-free purchase triggers it.  You stay in for the current day, plus two more.  10% is the max (30% on older) unless there is a special for a given day or days.  These rules are subject to change and adjustment (but none are planned), but that's how it's working now."

    Please, could you give a link to that message?

    Ravenhair does not show up in a store search.

    I guess so. There are items in fastgrab that I would like to get now. I'll wait till tomorrow, that adds another day to my BB status. I want to use the March coupon on it anyway.

    Bad idea. Fast Grab is irratic and you should never assume it will be there the next day. It's been changing almost daily the past week.

    Yeh, a little risky; but the DAZ day changes at midnight DAZ time (MST) while the FG items have usually been changing between 9am an 11 am DAZ time (MST). So there would be a small window where the item would be available in the next DAZ day.

    I've only seen it change once at DAZ-midnight. Most of the time it changes many-many hours later. Not sure what time that is in DAZ-land, it's evening for me. But you're right. If it were something I really had to get, I wouldn't wait. It's still there now, and I already grabbed it, so that's an extra one day there.

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    Looks like DAZ may be throwing in at least one inexpensive, attractive, new item per sale per every couple of days. 

    Which is a good strategy for whittling my resolve down. 

  • donovancolbertdonovancolbert Posts: 1,421

    Oh... Ravenhair is a PA, not an ITEM. 

    Yeah... that explains it.

    The sale has already killed my budget for this month, lol. I have just enough set aside to cover the three George products I want if they come on sale. I was able to get a discounted gift card, 7 new items, and 7 items from my wishlist. I am happy.

  • 3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,970

    I must say, I'm enjoying this sale so far. The banner really makes a difference - particularly on older items.

    It was awesome to see that Luthbellina  & Ravenhair to release   Law Enforcement Outfits for Genesis 2 and 3 Male(s)

     I bought both the outfit and the texture pak. frecking awesome that  you guys made this outfit for genesis 2 males. instant buy, and right in the nick of time too  so i can use it in ending my new karate girl  animation

    I'm trying to remember the gift cards are included, so when making a daily purchase, if I get a gift card first that covers my daily purchase, and saving 10% more. The reason I only get what I need for the day is because there may be a larger gift card discount during the sale. So 1. buy gift card   2. make purchase   3. smile. 

    BTW, I'm skimming through the 15000-15999 items and listing some of the props, sets, a few clothes that we've reviewed / liked on my thread. I'm not guaranteeing to get all the way through the alphabet but I did d/e so far this morning so far. Not listing everything, just what I would recommend based on showcasing it or it being a set/prop.

    Found an interesting item that is no longer available- anyone remember the Elegant Swan car that pooped yogurt? And I don't have it, darn it. I would have gotten it had I read the description, it's too funny.   I want that product brought back!

    hahah A swan car that poops yogurt. Must be related to the unicorn that poops ice cream.

    LOL, that unicorn looks like it just accomplished its life goal- what an expression!

    Ooh yeah. That's what I'm talkin' about! Sales, freebies, Fast Grab, March Madness discounts and PC+ coupon for the win!

    I love Shopping Cart Jenga! I bought 8 items at DAZ for $20 and 9 at Rendo for $14 through a variety of sales, coupon codes, etc. $34 for 17 items isn't bad at all!

    (Couldn't quite get it all into one screenshot, so attached both.)

    Did you get the full $6 value for your coupon? Often when there are free items in the cart, it causes the coupon to miscalculate and you get less value.If that happened, send a help request to CS to get store credit for the amount you were shorted.

  • LlynaraLlynara Posts: 4,772

    Yes indeedy! I made sure of that too laugh

    New toys! Yay!

    That's cunning. Can you use a gift card to buy a gift card?

    If you were patient and unscrupulous enough you could buy a $10 gift card for $9. Then spend that $10 buying another gift card worth just over $11, and rinse and repeat ad infinitum. After 23 iterations, you'd have $100; after 45, you'd have $1,000. Keep doing it 100 times and you'll have over $300,000! I guess that's why gift cards aren't usually in the sale!

    Just don't try this at home kids, I want Daz to stay in business.

    You have to buy gift cards with Paypal or a credit card. You can't use a gift card or store credit. For exactly this reason.

    Nope. DAZ already thought of that and you have to pay for Gift Cards with PayPal or credit card.

    You can't buy a gift card with a gift card for exactly this reason. :-)

    Yes, indeed, there is always another sale. I gave up trying to keep up.

    It says "Enjoy this March Madness New Release Free" but then there is no item... Does an item show up for anyone? If it's a new release, then I shouldn't already have it...

    It's empty for me too ...

    The last two freebies where DazOriginals newly released that day. Today there is no DazOriginal ... maybe that is why.
