    All March Madness sales including Aiko 8 pro bundle offer with no other bundles for free are very dissappointing

    the whole march madness of this year seems like a bad joke for customers with these dissappointing proposed deals

    There are no further promos on tonight's Aiko launch other than the ones listed on her sales page.

    *sigh*

    The A8 pro addon discounts squeeze with four of the cheaper addons come in at a bit over $50, but I can't help to think that the texture addons really should have just been part of the original product (which just has one texture set each), but the addon textures are nice at least.  And the heels used with the bundled clothing items are reasonably short too!  And they aren't really skimpwear either, which is nice...

    I have bits and pieces of the previous Aiko bundles (I do have most of the base characters A3-A7, I'm missing one though.).  It would have been nice to see all of the various Aiko (3-7) bundle items for the previous 'separated out' from the bundles to get the 'related item discount' on the various pieces, to get a better discount on those.  Getting those bundles for free would have solved that issue nicely, but according to what you've indicated, that's not happening...

    But we still keep buying, so they can't hate us that much. wink

    They must hate me then, because I've spent about $3.88 this month.  wink

    $0.12 for me ... LOL

    At the top of the March Madness page it says "Owners or butyers of Edward 8 Pro Bundle get an extra 10% off all newly mad ... etc. items".  I own Edward 8 Pro but I am not seeing that discount on Aiko 8 or any of her bundles, all of which are shown as newly mad items.

    If relogging doesn't help, I would suggest a ticket.

    I'm seeing the same, even after logging in again. I'll work out the math on my lunch break and put in a ticket if I'm interpreting the prices I'm seeing correctly.

    Base price: $134.95
    DO 30% discount: $94.465
    Assuming you buy the 4 addons, you get 50% off for there being at least two new items in the cart: $47.2325
    The 30% off for buying the 4 addons: $33.06275  <--- This is what I see in the cart now.
    Bonus buyer offer: owners of Edward 8 pro get an additional 10% off: $29.76  <--- This is what it should be based on the promo page.

    And it looks like some items are getting it and others not - I'm not sure I can take that much excitement over lunch LOL

    How long do the sales on the new Pro bundles usually last? I'm wondering if the Aiko 8 pro bundle and add on deals will still be about next Tues - can get her then, but utterly utterly completely broke this week. LOL

    Edward's sale lasted only for 4 days before he got thrown out as a MM offer. Given DAZ's track record of sales ending prematurely during the weekends, I say buy the Aiko 8 pro bundle before Saturday (DAZ midnight).

    I'm trying hard not to admit it, but.

    I think by this time last year, I had already spent some serious cash.

    Maybe the people(s) that did last year's March Madness aren't the same people planning this one so the sale schemes are different.

    And, I think Daz rotates sales anyway. If it was TOO etched in stone, I'd guess we'd all be waiting for it.

    I took a risk and didn't hold back over the last couple months, I grabbed what I needed (and sometimes wanted) and didn't hold out for March Madness 2018.

    That seems to be the right thing to have done.

    The only, last biggie that I am waiting for is DzFire's Vehicular Construction Kit.

    I don't know any big ticket item that's around the corner.

    Maybe Stonemason has a big surprise for us.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    Yeah, I was remembering the problem with Edward's sale ended. But nope, don't have the money at all till next week seriously. The pro plus three of the cheaper of the add ons is $47 in the cart - I don't have $47 at all this week LOL.

    Yeh, I'm just going to wait and see whether or not DAZ honors the extra 10% off for owners of Edward 8 Pro. I'm a little underwhelmed with the deal anyway and may not buy

  • MollytabbyMollytabby Posts: 1,163

    I’m also not getting the Edward Pro discount. I’ll wait for the system to update before I purchase.

  • Also not getting the Edward discount with five featured PA items in the cart.

  • NathNath Posts: 2,940

    It looks fixed now in my cart: Aiko 8 is at 68% ($14,16), and she was $15 and a bit earlier.

    Yes, the pro is down to $29.76, which is yeah, what it should be if the text on the promo page is correct.

    *sigh*

    First off, excited to see Aiko 8 finally!

    I was hoping for a similar deal where you got the previous pro bundles along with the A8 bundle, plus the orange banner discount for every previous pro bundle you might own, but... that's not the special this time.

    If I had known that Daz wasn't bundling the related pro bundles with the new pro bundle releases anymore, I might have grabbed one or more of the previous Aiko bundles previously, but since I was anticipating that we'd see a similar bundling to what happened with Victoria 8, Ophelia 8, etc... well I'm back to...

    *sigh*

    The week is young, so maybe something will change, but since this deal looks similar to another recent one (i.e. discount on the addons), well...

    Aiko 8 is really cute though!

    At first look, it appears the incentives for buying Aiko 8 are not as good as Promos for previous "8" figure Pro bundles. And the requirements to get freebies and discounts keep being moved out, (like the proverbial carrot for the donkey.) In today's sale, the best deals on Aiko and Aiko Addons come with 4 not 3 Addons purchased. (And not a free bundle in site!)

    But wait!

    With Aiko 8 and four addons in my cart, the discounts are showing 75-76% discounts. Aiko Pro is only 33.06 (for PC+ members) and the least expensive Addon textures are coming in at $3.66 (or $3.67) each. With this minimum cart, to get the best price on Aiko, the Grand Total is $47.72.

    Okay, maybe that is mad.

    And if you buy the Pro Bundle, you get another 30% off all the Related Products today.

    And as @tj_1ca9500b says, Aiko is really cute.

    (Fortunately for my wimpy wallet, I really don't need another cute female!)

     

    Aiko8 is *really* good -- one of the few characters I'll buy Pro at launch.

    Looks slightly "anime", stylized, and without the huuuuge eyes of Aiko7.

    And that is enough to tip the balance to getting the Pro bundle now for me, only about two bucks more for the cart than selecting what I want now and leaving some items for another sale. I'm not going to get them for that little, unless there's a store glitch smiley I can live with the stuff I don't want from the Pro bundle.

  • MollytabbyMollytabby Posts: 1,163

    The Edward Pro discount is now working for my shopping cart. smiley

    "Bonus buyer offer: owners of Edward 8 pro get an additional 10% off: $29.76  <--- This is what it should be based on the promo page." 

    Well, I wasn't getting it. I just went with a few Add-Ons and Aiko 8 by herself. The Pro didn't apply the extra 10% off for me.

    Is the price correct now for you? There was a price update recently, and it's now showing the correct (lower) price for me.

  • LlynaraLlynara Posts: 4,772

    I love Aiko 8 and bought her and 4 add ons immediately, using my PC+ coupon (I still had both of them, which is amazing for me this far into the month.) I didn't get the Edward 8 Pro discount (yep, finally did nab that guy after all the weird sale stuff!) So I've started a ticket. Edward 8 and I have a turbulent relationship! LOL

  • Robert FreiseRobert Freise Posts: 4,573

    Got it down to 34.01 with three other items

  • NathNath Posts: 2,940

    Got it down to 34.01 with three other items

    Adding another one would get it down to 29.76. May or may not be worth it depending on whether there are four other of today's items you want/like.

  • LlynaraLlynara Posts: 4,772

    Don't forget to use your PC+ coupon on DAZ Originals. That should bring her down to around $26 if you have 4 add ons in the cart and buy/own Edward Pro.

    I keep forgetting the coupons as I very seldom get to use them for anything as most of the time they don't apply to what I want
