    I'll report the date thing, but it might not be straightened out till they're in the office.  Does it work, though? (I mean, is it just a typo?)

     

    I have the message (type and all) but it is not working for me. Guess I'll wait...

    Is it just me who sees Michael8 features in his face?

    Me too.

    I went into my Message Centre and say I get 10% off for owning 1 Darius Pro bundle - only problem I own 2, Darius 6 and Darius 7 pros. And i saw the expiry date too :-)

    I ran into the same problem. Just checked and I had previously purchased both Darius Pro Bundles. Hope they get that fixed.

    Try refreshing your cart, the extra 10% is applying for me though it clearly isn't for you there.

    I've asked about the "own one of the previous Darius Pro bundles" for those of us with both.

    The link for Darius 8 Pro in my orange banner goes to Monique 8 Pro.  Not a big deal, but thought I'd add it to the thread in case anyone else gets misdirected also.

    Darius looks like a quality character, especially the hair.   Looking forward to seeing some renders.

    EDIT: Oops, the hair I like (short afro) is an add-on.  Still, happy to see added to the store.

    Maybe that is the problem - I own 1 Monique pro bundle, which would be 10%. So everything relates to Monique but says Darius?

  • anikadanikad Posts: 1,919

    I own both Darius 6 & 7 pro bundles and I'm only seeing the 10% off banner and 10% in the cart. I'll wait and see if they fix the discounts. Otherwise I'll wait until the next big DO sale.

  • DiomedeDiomede Posts: 15,388

    Wow, had the pro bundle in my cart and it jumped $70 while I was adding the hair add-on that I liked.  Have cleared my cart and will wait until the sales discounts get sorted out (or jump on another price dip?).

    Me, too. I'd like to get it but it's not enough of a bargain for me to rush into purchasing it. Only an extra 10% still leaves the cost of the Pro budle (with 30% introductory discount and 30% PC+ discount) at $60 and no Benifit from the free Darius 6 Pro and Darius 7 Pro because I alrready own them

    Yeah, good looking figure, the promo guy reminds me a little of Ricco Ross who played Frost in Aliens. Some Colonial Marine style gear has long been on my wishlist, I know there was MOS Invasion, but that's ages old now. He's not enough yet to tempt me back into the Daz fray, but, getting there, I'll have to see how things pan out next year...

    CHEERS!

    The link in the orange banner takes me to the Monique pro bundle instead of Darius 8.

    I definitely will be picking up the men and and all the non fantasy clothing however he is fairly costly considering the discount on Monique and I own both previous Darius bundles.  One of the items are showing my pc discount either

  • Prices are all messed up for me.  Not even showing the standard 30% on daz originals.  It’s a good looking character but not when the pro bundle and one extra hair item are showing as $134 and change.  Might look into it again later.

  • No orange banner. No messages. I own both Darius 6 and 7.

     

  • The store is so messed up that currently the fast grab section has all items at full price.  Time to put away the credit cards till they wake up and have their coffee over in DAZ-land

    I like him and I actually really like the hairs and the more fantasy outfits, love the long coat.  Much as I would love to grap him, he is going to have to wait.  I have both 6 and 7 with lots of add ons so I am not lacking for characters.  I am hoping I can pick up at least some of the hair soon though.

    Well the base figure looks great and so do the hair and additional characters. I'm a bit disappointed in the clothing- no sci-fi or suits unfortunately, which is what I need. The hair, beard, and characters though look amazing and the cargo shorts look useful. Just kinda need winter clothing, and contemporary and futuristic outfits.

    The Terran Hair has an option to remove the top curls, revealing another short, fuzzier style that I like much better. I think the main promo of the hair should be split screen to show the short option because it is really nice, especially the hairline. I don't know what's up with the white flecks in the back on several of the promo shots, though.

  • The only problem I have is that I have to wait... I can't wait to see the first renders though...

    Oh wow completely missed that... I much prefer it without the curls!

    Hmmm... I own Darius 6 but I have no orange banner. Is that only for Pro version buyers? I bought Darius 6 Starter Bundle back in the day. indecision

  • Capsces Poses and Expressions for Genesis 8 Male and Darius 8 should be included in the Pro Bundle, but it doesn't get included when you purchase it. 

    Some little buggy thing.

    Thanks,

  • We've reported the missing poses and the bad link. The message for people with both previous Darius Pro bundles is being looked into.

    Yes I'd already tried refreshing, also adding something else, then removing it. No change to the price. I had to go out to lunch today and now I'm back I checked my messages again and the offer has disappeared. (I never saw an orange banner but I check messages every day just in case something turns up) I screen printed the message (it has the November 20th expiry date) so it was definitely there this morning. I guess the store hates me today.

    No orange banner. No messages. I own both Darius 6 and 7.

     

    I get the orange banner, saying "as an owner of a previous Darius pro bundle" I get 10% off. And it shows in the cart. But... I don't own a Darius Pro Bundle. I own the Monique 8 Pro Bundle (and got the free 7 and 6 bundles). I do own both Darius 7 and 6, but only the single figures, no bundles.

    With holiday shopping and the amount I dropped on the last few months of sales I can't afford this bundle right now, which is a shame. Its really wonderful looking. 

  • The banner also say it expires November 20, 2017

    We think Darius 8 looks amazing, and it's exciting to hear that so many of you agree.  A few other things for you as well:

    - We're fixing the orance banner with the wrong expiration date (obviously the offer doesn' expire Nov 20)

    - If you are seeing an orange banner that says you get an extra 10% for owning a previous version, we just changed the sales rules so that you will actually be getting an extra 25% instead of 10% (Happy Holidays :)

    - We will be updating the orange banner in a few mionute to change the 10% to 25% to avoid confusion.

    - If you have already purchased at the 10% price point, don't worry... We will be automatically applying a credit to your account for the difference.  You should see a notification of this being done before the end of today.

    Thank youa again everyone for your support, and Happy Holidays!!

    The first time I saw the banner (around 4 a.m. DAZ time) it said 10% because I owned one previous bundle. I checked the price in the cart and it seemed to match. Then I was away for about 6 hours and when I came back it was suddenly 25%, and the price in the cart was reduced accordingly.

    EDIT: Well, previous post from DAZ_Steve explains this I guess. Thanks!

    Man, with Monique 8 DAZ seemed to do everything right, but it seems to be going out of its way to make Darius look less appealing... at the moment all of the discounts seem to be broken, I never got an orange bar and the promo in my "message" disappeared after reading it (since it had already expired, I assume), and, worst of all, two of the four outfits in the ProBundle don't include a shirt while a third wears shorts and sandals so there's really only one decent everday outfit in the bunch.  At least the included hairs are nice, but, ironically, I think the hair and beard set that comes included with Redz new character, Tyrone, is even better and that character doesn't even need Darius to look great.

    Really happy about Darius. Monique and Darius are outstanding. Great work

    @DAZ_Steve - nice gesture, but how soon should I see this?

    I'm still seeing nothing. I got a Message (but no orange banner) 7 hours ago with the 10% off (I own the Darius 6 Pro Bundle but not the Darius 7) but it wasn't applying in my cart so I thought I'd wait till the store opened and see if it got sorted out.
    Then the Message disappeared from my Messages. Still no new one and still no discount in my cart. I've even tried logging out and in again - no change..
