    LOL, had to look up durry, but that makes sense now.

    Funny I had a pro bundle in my cart for Olympia 7 at $9.99. Didn't really need it, but since I have never purchased a pro bundle and there were a few things in it I could use, figure I might get it. Should have pulled the trigger when I had the chance, now it is at $66, DOH!

  • So basically the sales are fixed just several hours before all the sales change again. Business as usual.

    If you're talking about the issue we just found with my order, to be fair, it's apparently a very unlikely one and apparently hasn't happened to anyone else yet.  IT would have been found earlier if I had checked out earlier.

    When I try and checkout, I get an error message saying the price has changed in my cart, check total.  It is increasing by .01 between the cart overview and the checkout button.  I have tried logging out/hardrefresh/logging back in and a different browser.

    Can I get a screenshot of your cart please?

    Actually, we found the problem.  The good news is we can fix it.  The bad news is that it will take about an hour to go live.  Can you try to check out again in about 60 mins?  Very sorry for the inconvinience.  Without going into the gory details, this is due to a fix that went live a few days ago to resolve an issue that (very very rarely) happened with PayPal.

    Just tried again and it's still there, will try again in about 10 minutes

  • Just a general trend. I used to alwasy shop late at night, after the changover because that was my peaceful alone time. But Its not possible these days, because every day its the same thing. And its not convenient for me to shop in the evening after dinner. So its a real pain. I come here, and see the thread still dealing with problems from last night and its like, great 30% off, but can't use it because nothing ever works right. I have to count on shopping during the glitches, because the actual sales are always screwed up.

    Ah, yeah, I can see that.  There have been getting fixed late afternoon and early evening than there used to be.

    Still there, and it's happening with both paypal and a credit card, just fyi

  • I'm getting the same error message about the prices having changed. Have tried both Firefox and Chrome; also this has happened two days running with different sets of products. Would really like it if this could be fixed tonight. Thanks!

    Well. How about that? It seems I own no G8 characters.
    Sale is no-sale for me.
    Am I the only one?
    I guess it makes sense, offer discounts on G-old stuff to people who are moving up to G8.
    In DAZ land, at least.

    I just bought a bunch of new stuff it and expect Daz to make it right which they always do.

    Wow, I was about to checkout and my cart went up from $130 to $160. I can still remember the Genevieve 7 Pro bundle was showing around $23 in my cart a few hours ago. Did they fix the sales discount or did a glitch happened again?

    Confused, what does that mean?

    Is this right? The main page thing says my 'special' discount is 30%.

  • How long will the top sellers stay on the main page? A few days at least? Or are they likely to rotate new top sellers daily? (I really want that mansion, not sure how I missed it when it first came out, its got the whole grounds, exterior and interior. Holy cow.) But I want to wait to see if I can get my order over 18 so I can use the Save 6 coupon.

    That had to have been a glitch, the lowest I got Genevieve was $27

    Still not working for me either, same error

    I felt the same way when they had G7 banner sales and those with X amount of G7 figures got huge discounts on MORE G7 Figures and those who didn't ...didn't get any discount. lol It was head scratching to me as they were widening the gap between those who hadn't made the leap to G7 yet and those who had. And it was getting cheaper and cheaper for those who had G7 figures, so they were getting more and more G7 figures -which gave them bigger discounts. And on it went. I was like "What is going on here!? WHO came up with this?". lol It was frustrating as someone who had just started 3D art and I felt I was getting left farther and farther behind.

    I caught those early right after the sale toggled on.

    $18.52 each for Gia and Gianni pro bundle.

    I just picked up the Olympia 7 Pro Bundle for $3.92 (after applying the $6 coupon). I didn't even really want Olympia, but a G3 Pro Bundle at that price...

    Different people have different loyalty discounts (I'm assuming it's to do with recent purchasing history).

    Thank you for the math. I was getting kinda upset. I don't like the wording obviously, but it is more important for me to feel I can trust your numbers, which you have shown how you arrived at. Have a great weekend!

    As you mention math is part of your job, maybe this formula will help you:

    ( ( ( retail - 30% ) -50% ) -30% ) = Price in Cart.

    That's full retail minus member discount on DOs, then minus 50% category discount, and then minus 30% loyalty rewards discount. (Loyalty discounts vary, of course.)

    Unless specifically stated, such as "50% off, or 60% with a new release in your cart," the above is how Daz "stacks" discounts.

    Hope this helps.

    @L'Adair I like that! That explains it a lot better, imo. :)

    ( ( ( retail -30% ) -50% ) -30% ) = Price in Cart

    That helps me wrap my mind around the math better. Thanks, L'Adair!

    I'm glad that helps you, Diva. And the color coding really makes it stand out, too. Great addition.

    As far as I can tell 30% is the max - at least that's the max that has been reported so far. 

    Mine is 25% and I think I saw someone say their discount was 20%.

    Stick around, maybe it will change.
    At 2200, mine was 25%. Now, at 0115, it's 30%.

    I still can't purchase anything that has a price (the freebie today worked fine, but nothing else will).  It's not a big cart, but it's for something I've been watching for a while now.  And what happens tomorrow?

    I have 30%, and if my extensive (and expensive!) research is anything to go by then it's aimed at people who spent so much last month that they couldn't take advantage of an extra 30% discount throughout this month even if they wanted to :)

    If you're saying the cart won't let you checkout, take a screenshot of your cart and put in a trouble ticket. If the the problem is with the site, Customer Service will make it right for you, but you need to get a copy of your cart to them with the prices you're trying to pay. Getting that ticket in before Daz Midnight may be a good idea, too. Hurry! It's on minutes away!
