    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?

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

    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).

    Dang. Ya'll have some sweet deals. I only have an extra 30%. Guess I need to spend more. laugh

    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%.

    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 :)

    LOL... well I don't think I spent that much last month. I bought a very large gift card in Sept, at 20% off though. That may be the trigger  in my case.

    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?  

    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!

    The cart won't let me checkout, even running different items than the ones I actually want.  I've submitted a ticket, and included a link to my forum post about it where Daz_Steve confirmed it was an issue and that it should have been fixed within an hour.  I'm hoping it gets fixed soon, although it'll be better for my wallet if it doesn't.  I spend way too much money here.

    The new daily sales switches out any minute now, so be sure you take a screen shot of your cart before the prices change.

    I tested the discounts by putting one of each category in my cart. All the discounts are stacking correctly except for the "2016 & 2015 Top Sellers 50% OFF -OR- 60% OFF* with purchase of any new release" and the "Owners of any Featured Genesis 8 Character above get these Featured Previous Generation Genesis Add-ons for 60% OFF" categories. These two are giving the Loyalty Rewards Discount, along with the DO discount for members where applicable. But the discount for Top Sellers with a new release is not being applied. The 60% for the add-ons is also not being applied. (I own 4 of the G8 Pro bundles.) For some reason, the cart image won't upload. I'll try again, later. Ha! Where there's a will, there's a way—cart image via my private gallery:

  • Speaking of which, it's been half an hour since the DAZ-midnight switchover and none of the new items are showing a price yet. And they're not showing up at all on the store front page either. Anyone remember the database settling-down period lasting this long? It's usually been just 10-20 minutes at the most.

    Thanks, but I grabbed a screenshot earlier this afternoon, and posted it here before Daz_Steve confirmed it was a glitch.  Looks like the items I was after are still part of the new sale that is going live now, so that's definitely a plus for me.

    I added one to my cart, the Forbidden Alley. It came up as $24.95 full price, $12,23 discounted price. Looks like Cloud Flare has struck again! lol

    One day this week I'm pretty sure it took over an hour for it to all settle down and display everything.

    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 :)

    Not true. Last month I bought very little yet have 30%. Thankfully it appears to be based on a per annum calculation. However tonight I was offered all the debuts for free but that changed in a flash.

    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.

    I may be wrong but I think it is:  (((p.retail - % offer for owner of P.B. (or for new release)) - % PC+ member ) - % Loyalty reguards* ) - (% other discounts*). 

    e.g. M7 01/12/2017 (((134.94 - 85%) - 30%) - 25%* ) - 20%* = 8,50185

    Prices are going up and down in my cart faster than I can keep track. And that's just old wish-listed stuff; I haven't tried any of the new products. I guess I'll wait a few hours, and see if it settles down. But, you know, it's getting to the stage, for me, that I won't even bother looking at these sales any more. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. There were promotions in the past that were popular, and that worked; why not continue in that vein, at least for these fast-changing promotions.?

    Whoa! New Christmas Freebie! :D https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-sweater-for-millennium-dog

    Thank you, Daz and Thank You, Aave Nainen~! :)

    Does that mean we get a new one every day!? Whhhaaat? AWESOME! surprise 

    That, on top of all the great freebies from the Black Friday sales days, means my runtime is nice and plump and full of fun stuff to play with! Yay! :D

    I think it might be based on fiscal year and not calendar year. At least based on my spending habits and my corresponding discounts.

  • Well it all depends if you're basing it on absolute or relative pricing Lol :)

    If you check my attachment for the Top Sellers in my post above, you'll see the two randomly chosen products in my cart are both in the screenshot buy missing from that section of the page now. Probably an issue with the changeover. The 2015/2016 Top Seller items currently in the sale appear to be discounting correctly.

    However, the "Featured Previous Generation Genesis Add-ons" are not. I added over a dozen randomly chosen products into my cart, and none of them had the correct discounts.

    (And I did log out and back in to verify.)

    So extreme is the force of my determination not to give and buy that Private Practice Office that I'll probably be rendering it within the hour. Sigh... :)

    Owners of any Featured Genesis 8 Character above get these Featured Previous Generation Genesis Add-ons for 60% OFF - this one is not working AGAIN. I own the Olympia 8 character as featured - and these items are ONLY giving me the reward loyalty discount, not the 60%. Same problem that happened yesterday. 

    See screenshot. 

    This is supposed to be 60% (for owning Olympia 8) plus the 30% loyalty reward discount. 

    edit: added second screenshot to show that I definitley do own Olympia 8 and the page is reflecting that.

    It's been over two hours since the new releases went up, it's still not fixed and it was doing this yesterday too. 

    I am truly at the point where I'm about to give up - doesn't matter how insane these christmas deals get, I'm ready to go and not come back. Sick and tired of it.

  • Does antybody have a link to ther "Owners of any Featured Genesis 8 Character above get these Featured Previous Generation Genesis Add-ons for 60% OFF" sale page?  When the Holiday sale first tarted there was a link to a page of these items but now DAZ is just putting them on the Holiday Sale page. It was much easier tro use when there was a seperate page where I could see items I already own and where I could sort the items.

    Thanks,

    Charlie

    The link is still there, it's just all the way at the bottom of the page. :)

    I admit, I thought that was an odd choice to put so many items from that category on the sales page itself. I kept scrolling and scrolling wondering when I'd hit bottom. lol (I always like to check the entire page in case I miss something - so it was kind of annoying that they put SO MANY items on that page.)

    I’m really confused what the prices are actually suppose to be- there were many items I wanted to buy yesterday, but I didn’t because the prices were jumping around all day and didn’t trust the price was right. Today is even more unstable and the prices just keep rising. Gianni 7 was 18$ in my cart yesterday, then changed to 24 and then to 26, back to 24 today and now he shows as 33 in my cart. The girl 7 pro bundle is doing the same - for some reason that bundle is 24$ more than Olympia 7, even though they’re in the same 2015-2016 category with the same price. I have 30% loyalty, but no idea how it’s applying. 

    Point is, I won’t check out or buy anything until I know what the actual prices are suppose to be, since they’re jumping around for the second day- mostly just rising in my cart.

    Same for me. I put some stuff in my shopping cart and wanted to look for some more deals today, but most of the prices have been increased a lot over night (I live in Germany) and the 3D add-ons are not 60% down if you own one of the G8 characters. :( Nothing seems to work correctly right now, so I'm waiting for a fix. If everything would work as they describe it on the sale page, this would be a fantastic sale and the reward % would be a really nice thank you as I've spent quite some bucks this year.

    I don't get it, how the discount on Michael 7 Pro bundle is suppose to work, bacause either the cart does not calculate the price correctly or the price is listed wrong (or maybe I'm missing something)?

    What kind? I am craving a good oatmeal cookie, but everyone puts raisins in theirs, yeeech!

    Note to self: raisin opacity to zero

    Can you please just change the raisin color a little to make chocolate chunks?heart

    I may even have chocolate chip cookies somewhere, I'll need to check laugh

    That's the same as y cart shows but when Ii work it out  it comes to $4.94:

    $134.95 less 30% $40.49 (PC+) less 50% $47.23 (2017TopSeller) less 85% $40.18 (own G8 Bundle) less 30% $2.13 (LoyaltyReward) for a total of $130.01 off the start price?

    But it's 6.38 in Sunday morning and I've had less then an hours sleep so . . . .
