    Jack, are you checking all the possible meanings of 'purgation' in the dictionnary? I thought it was just another of your jokes.

    LOL, when I saw the name of Jack's new set, I thought of the crazy old musical where they sing, "And I'm having a purgation right now!" Can't remember what the heck that's from.

    Based on the current sale prices and the 20% discount, I'm not at all enticed to join PC+. Hugely disappointed.

    Ditto. $56.00 to join ...means I'd have zero money to spend during the sale. We had much better Membership discounts last year. I'm hugely disappointed. I was really looking forward to the PC+ sale and now it looks like I won't be participating... 

    That actually sounds like the price it was last year. I just checked my orders:

    • 10/15/2016- annual membership renewed at $56
    • 12/31/2016 - annual membership renewed at $24. That was an insane deal!
    • 4/8/2017- annual membership renewed at $42.

    My membership won't be expiring for a while!

    This first free megapack is a thrill. I don't think I already own any of that stuff!

    I bought the 1961 Roadster on the 30th with last month's DO coupon, and now it's a PC item at $1.39; bad timing... frown

    Same here, I only own Disconsolation, so worth it for me. I'm glad I stuck with a month to month for my PC membership, yeah I pay a bit more over the year, but I can afford that $8 a month.

    OK, glad I waited last night on pulling the trigger. What was before $1.88 is now $.80 cents and my total cart discount (with freebie items) is 97%. laugh

    My original annual membership price was $10.  I keep hoping to see that again.

  • I missed the cheap annual one last year. I got my partner it and then went outside thinking it would still be up later in the day. It was $12, but that was more toward the end of the pc sale in November. I ended up with the 3 month one and have not renewed due to funds.

    Has anyone scrolled down to the very bottom of the page? When I do, I get to scroll through the sales a second time. I've tried doing a ctrl+F5 refresh to clear the cache, but I'm still getting two instances of the page, one after the other... Weird.

    That's a problem with the webpage. 

    It's optimised for VR headsets :)

    I'll report that ;)

    Ooh, that would have been cool! I'd love to see the whole store in VR and Daz Studio too!

    Put headset on, have voice activation, say "put in cart," or "Show highest discount." Or even better, a hologram store and DS program. I think I should have been born 10 years from now...

    Other than that, the sale seems to be starting off with a ... whimper!


    I am still getting different views in different browsers. MS Edge has the double version, but the bottom half is a little different, namely the "Newly PC+ Items" section. IE11 and Firefox have a single version, like the bottom half of the one in Edge.

     

    edit: ...and as soon as I wrote that, it seems to be okay now in Edge.

    I don't really expect to see it that cheap, although it would be nice, but it really gets me that days before my membership expired they offered it at 50% off to non members only now its just 20% off.

    I've been a member for years but obviously they really don't care about their long time members guess they feel that they've had our money so we don't matter anymore and we can see how the membership perks have dissapeared gradually over the years, its still worth it for many but I really have to question whether or not I need it.

    Well, they aren't increasing the PC+ membership price to keep up with inflation, so that's a bonus.

    And they do offer orange banners on occassion to long time members. Plus free mega pack bundles for pc+ members (many of which have used daz for a long time).

    I can't complain. :)

    We do what we can.. thanks.  This month alone sees an additional 4 freebies (new items) on top of the 40 included in the mega freebies, and the BYOB's etc, I'm sure everyone will get something out of it.  If that's not worth the money to you, then I'm not sure what else I can do to help :) 

    Enjoy the sale :)

    No they offer orange banners to people who have spent so much or bought such and such.

    The price of the membership may not have increased but  the price of the items did increase, the bundles rarely have even 1 item in them that I don't have so theres little advantage in them for many of us long timers.

    There are as I said many that get advantage out of the PC, but I'm not really complaining about that I'm merely stating that I'm not going to purchase a membership at 20 - 30 % off when days before my membership expired they offered it at 50% off to non members but as I was still a member I couldn't purchase it at that price.

    At 40% I would most likely bite the bullet but not at 20-30%

    Hey only you can do the math to see if it’s worth it. if it’s not, it’s not. In which case you win by not buying it!

    Hi Jack, I am not seeing any BYOB's at the moment, is that something (hopefully) coming later?

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,182

    Guys, remember to check the sales page again. There are some more items added to the "newly PC+" section.

    You know, there are some REALLY nice items in the Newly PC+ category. Two of TangoAlpha's sets are in there, as well as a bunch of other goodies for very little. I'd say the sale is off to a good start. wink

    I got my membership on the 50% off sale in February, as a new member I was thankful for it but I understand the the frustration with the sale being only available to non members. I thought it was odd when I read that it was for non members only.  ALL other paid forums/programs I belong too, when they have membership sales, it's offered to everyone and buying during the sales time would add another year onto the end of your current subscription. As a member your supposed to get better prices, so offering your best prices, then telling members they aren't allowed to have that price, doesn't really seem fair.

    Well, I made it back in time for Day 1. Nice freebies, thanks. Of course I owned everything but 1 from the Mega Pack, and now I own that too. Off now to browse the rest of the sale items.

    Exactly - now they expect me to spend more just to spend more so as someone said I'll just save money; I haven't bought a DO or PC item since my PC membership ran out.

  • MazhMazh Posts: 489

    The newly PC+ items stay for a while at that price (like the new PC+ items) or is it a special price for the day it's added and the next day it's the regular PC+ price?

  • dreamfarmerdreamfarmer Posts: 2,128

    Wow, those two TangoAlphas are an amazing deal via PC+.
