Blink Sale already over?

edited April 2019 in The Commons

From the Alerts thread, it looks like the sale started around 8pm, it's 9:40p, and the discounts aren't showing and the ad is still on the banner.  But I'm not showing any discounts for items in the cart (yes, I've more than 3, and yes, I've tried logging out and back in.)

Could someone either (a) confirm it's already over based on an actual start time, or (b) kick the servers to put the discounts back up?

(and this is why they should put the ending time/date on the sales ads on the banner....)

    The blink sales show they end after 1/2/4 hours, etc, but those times are almost never exact.

    As soon as you see the sale, get what you want in a hurry, or you miss out, Assuming of course that the discounts actually work, which for the current one (about 7:45 pm Daz time) it's broken.

    I don't believe I have ever scene the forums monitored or failed sales reported at this hour.

    Yep, that's EXACTLY what I did.  Before the sale ended.  But it wasn't working.  And now those items aren't on sale at 70% off.  18 sales, gone.  Cart Emptied.  Not really anything I want from the new one.

    DAZ, get your sales working correctly, or extend them!

    AND the newest blink sale isn't working EITHER.  Just to see, I tried adding three items from it to my (now empty) cart.  No discount showing up in cart.

    Broken sales with no discounts aren't sales.

    *sighs*  Not really anything in the current one that the discount makes me want to jump on it.  There were quite a few in the prior sale.....

    Not working for me either. Can Daz ever run a sale that goes off without a hitch? I'm beginning to think not.

    And btw, if the blink sale is really over already that WAS a blink. I only got the email at 9:45 pm EDT and was ready to check out by 10pm. Glad I didn't blink. Geeze.

    And oh yay....I can't even see if it works in Firefox either because THE SITE IS ALL SCREWED UP. Get your stuff together Daz. This is becoming a joke.

  • I got the email form Ati at 7:45pm, 20 minutes ago exactly.  Loaded 3 things in the cart and... no discount.  No sale means... well, no sale.  Dump the cart.

    The current sale is finally working, but the store won't let me pay for it. I keep getting, "Payment did not go through. Please try again later." And I just got "Too many new credit card numbers added," even though I've used the same card each attempt.

    Hopefully it's working for someone because there's no way I CAN make it work. Google Chrome gives me 0% off and Firefox serves me a page full of gibberish with half the links missing. No sale I guess. Tried the obligatory logging out/in, refreshing, clearing cache, yada yada yada Daz hoop jumping.

    Yeah, still not seeing any discount in my cart with four items from the sale in it. 

  • I feel bad for the vendors trapped in the UNsale... not very fair to them, I would think.  "Why did I get the broken sale...?" :-P

    No kidding. I've got a big cart and Isn';t it  It's time for heads to roll.

    Happy Easter!  You get no money!

  • It was working earlier, the current one isn't.  Oh well, there's always another sale...

    That's apparently the offical DAZ motto now.  And if they don't change it, mine's going to be Oh well, there's always Renderosity.

    Yeah, there is. I'm growing tired of the dance I gotta do at this place just to give them my money.

    I couldn't get discounts on the 9:00 sale. I was able to get discounts on the 10:00 sale, but only for DAZ items that were 58% off. The sale made the items about 94% off.

    Blink sale doesn't work.  3 items in basket.  NO 70% discount.  WASTE OF TIME, DAZ.

     

  • So I signed out just to do the clear cache and cookies dance, just for fun of course. Tried to sign back on and I couldnt even do that. "Rate Limit Exceeded" was the error I got. 10 minutes later im back on but the sale is still not working.

    Daz, ive been really quite in the forums for about two months but this is starting to piss me off.

    It JUST worked for me....try it  now if there's anything you want. It might not work 10 minutes from now.

    Just worked for me too, but I had to use chrome instead of Firefox.  

  • Worked in Firefox.  I must have crossed the right fingers.  Or something.

    Still not working for me.  That's OK.  I don't need any of that stuff anyway.  I save a fortune when these sales don't work.  I don't know if I'll even bother looking at another BLINK sale.

    Now it's all of them together. I have a lot of stuff, but there's still 40 pages to slog through.

  • AllenArtAllenArt Posts: 7,175

    Aaaaaand 2 of the 4 things I bought won't even show up in install manager. Perfect.

    Did the same to me. I went around it and used my credit card through paypal instead. That worked.

  • wscottartwscottart Posts: 447

    Oh well no STARR! and no Gen 3 resources for me from blink. Goodnight all. I surrender, empty the cart and go to bed.

  • So mad, was trying to get my items kept saying try again later....boo!
