    Was the banner supposed to be for all, or was it one of those that only went out to selected people?, because I did not get the banner. I am kind of surprised no one else has moaned about being left out, unless it really was just me!

    I haven't seen anyone else mention not getting it.

    Did you look under your Messages >> Exclusive Offers? 

    Did you try the code?

    Not everybody will have it, this is normal.  I do not have it, for example.  In the past others have not had the ones I've had.

    Yes I did look under the messages, and yes I did try it, but not surprisingly it did not work.

    I realise that these banners are often on a selected group, but normally there are a bunch of people shouting that they have no banner, but not this time, which made me wonder if I was in a very small group of those that missed out.

    You are not the only one that didn't get it. I didn't, and I've seen several other people post about not getting it. We'll get something else some other time, probably.

    Yep, there was one in December that I didn't get. I happened to have gotten this one. Who knows what the criteria is for this - I wish they would say on the banner message.

    The discription on this one just said: 

    "As we head into 2018, Daz wants to thank you for your support of all that we, and our artists do. To show our appreciation, from now through the end of Sunday, February 11th, please come and get some free stuff on us!"

    Yep, I picked up Gothic Bedroom for $5.90,  Angelica for Genesis 8 for $3.38, X-Fashion America Outfit (Genesis 8) for $2.12 (and there's a really neat texture product too.) I went for things that started at 58% off. The X Fashion outfit goes to 87% off.  :) 

    @havos  No, you're not the only one.  Barbult commented she didn't get it either.

    I got Short Afro Hair and Classic Side Part Hair for Friday and Saturdays coupons but now I can't decide what to get with today's coupon. I'm looking at:

    Short Pigtails: https://www.daz3d.com/short-pigtails-for-genesis-3-and-8-female-

    or Gothic Bedroom: https://www.daz3d.com/gothic-bedroom

    or Angelica https://www.daz3d.com/angelica-for-genesis-8-female - She looks like beautiful character and might be useful but I don't need a lot of different characters

    or Old Attic https://www.daz3d.com/old-attic I don't need an attic and already have some older ones but I might be able to kit bash some of the included props.

    Any ideas?

    @Novica pointed out Gothic Bedroom, which I picked up on Saturday for the kitbashing potential. Cost me only $5.90. On Friday, I picked up two of the older hair items that are part of the "Breakfast in Bed" promo: Cloey Hair for Genesis 3 Female(s) and Kaylum Hair for Genesis 2. Between them, I think I paid almost $2.00. Today I picked up Nerdy Girl Hair for Genesis 3 Female(s), also part of the Breakfast in Bed promo, for whooping $1.28.

    Hope this helps a bit. laugh

    Thanks. I narrowed it down to either  Gothic  Bedroom or Angelica, flipped a virtual coin, and Angelica won.

    Hey mods, the green banner stopped working. I had the cart with the code (showing the $5 off, applied and working) went to another part of the store and went to the cart, and the discount was gone. Logged out and in, refreshed, nada. Discount is not working, and there's still about an hour and a half until Daz midnight. Can you check on it?  Had  X-Fashion America Outfit (Genesis 8)  in the cart.

    I've noticed that several sales lately have ended early. It appears that they might be trying something new to try and keep sales from stacking inadvertently with the new sales at switchover time. It's likely that the banner offers are affected as well. You might try putting a support ticket in and seeing if they'll help (they surely will - they've always been really helpful to me when I've had issues). :)

    I apologize, I had unexpected late company and did not see this till now. You may want to contact Daz with a ticket and explain what you encountered. You can show them the time stamp on your post.

    The PC coupons now expire at Midnite UTC instead of DAZ Midnite, so perhaps others do as well...

    Interesting, because I was unable to use one of mine a few months ago on the last evening of the month, and Support told me they now expired at midnite UTC (they did honor it).  They must have had too many complaints...

    UTC midnight is sooner that Daz midnight, so if anything, it creates more complaints, doesn't it?

    it's 7 hours sooner.   Daz midnight is 07:00 am for us on GMT.

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,925

    I think what happened was the discount on the item changed, it went from 58% to 30%. There was no reason for it to do that (not an error) so when the coupon did apply, it applied to a higher base price. I did send in a ticket right away :)  And no problem @crispalomino

    I was referring to the 'Thanks-From-Daz' coupon; I don't know for sure about the PC+ ones.

  • thistledownsnamethistledownsname Posts: 1,336

    Unfortunately none of the DO items I wanted were on sale, so it was either take $5 off the standard (30% off) price and still pay more than I was willing, or dig through to find something interesting at $5.  I ended up doing the latter, and spent about $1 actual money on the weekend.

  • bytescapesbytescapes Posts: 1,922

    I am sort of fascinated by this talk of coupons, as I didn't see any of them. Normally, if there's a coupon going around, I get it, which I take as DAZ's way of saying "You spend way too much money at DAZ3D. Here, spend some more." From the fact that I didn't get these -- which is probably a good thing, considering -- I assume that either my expenditure has slipped back to the point that DAZ no longer considers me worthy of further inducements, or it's reached such astronomical levels that they're shaking their heads and going "This poor guy obviously has a problem. We shouldn't encourage him." I hope it's the former rather than the latter, but you never know.

    Onward! There's always another coupon™.

    I kinda felt the same which is why I didn't use the sat coupon, but then thought more about it. Daz is giving me $5, so I probably should use it and in looking for something to buy with Sun's coupon found 2 other products I wanted that were not on sale. PA's gotta eat too, LOL.

    Is there a special orange banner for Alexandra 8?

    *sigh*

    I was hoping for Aiko 8 or Girl 8 this time.  Mind you, Alexandra 8 is interesting, but we've already had some other characters that are somewhat along these lines.  The new sale format is interesting, though.  Snag 3 addons and pick 3 bundles, etc. from the featured list, and there are a LOT of pro bundles in that list.

    I've been deliberately NOT picking the Girl and Aiko pro bundles in various sales recently where they are options up until now because I figured they'd factor into the relevant sale when Aiko, etc. finally drop, in a manner similar to what happened with Vic 8, Mike 8, etc...

    The Girl and Aiko have been around for quite a while, and have been counterparts to Victoria for a long time (since the Millenium Girl/Vic 1 days for Aiko, The Girl is more recent), so I'm really surprised that we haven't seen new versions of them by now.  Sure, there's Sakura 8, etc. but the other girls aren't the same...

    Anyways, I'm currently agonizing over which pro bundles to pick to go along with this Alexandra lady... I have bits and pieces of a number of other pro bundles on the 'featured' list, so it's not a straightforward decision r.e. deciding on the three choices, especially since I'm keeping Aiko and The Girl bundles off of my list (same for Guy, etc.) in anticipation of the new versions of those characters dropping at some point in the near future (hopefully)...

    Anyways, interesting setup for the Alexandra 8 pro bundle discounts and associated 'freebies', Daz team!

    I don't want to muddy the waters, but for a good 6+ months now, PC coupons go live a day before the new month, and expire a day into the new month.. so you have approx 24 hours overlap each side.

    It was indeed six months ago that this happened, so glad to hear it's since been resolved... smiley

    You already have all of the potential freebies? If so you might open a Sales Support ticket.

    I haven't seen a banner for Alexandra. But I don't own lots of the lady's pro bundles (I usually go for the lads). But just in case, should I see a banner for Alexandra? Because I don't  :)

    Maybe not all of them but some of us have most of character pro bundles that are potential freebies
