How do we know the time limit on sales?

Wow! Has this ever happened to you? I put about 7 items in my cart today and was so happy for all the characters I had been planning to buy on sale.   I go back later to check out and all the prices went back up.  Needless to say I ordered 0 items vs the  7 I was going to order today.  

Has this ever happened to you?  I think we should have a 24 hour grace period in your cart especially today when the website was down several times.  I sure wish I knew when the sale was going to end.   Oh well.  Both of us lost today.    0 dollars spent vs 150.   Can we change this policy a bit?

    It has happened to everyone and we are never going to know when a sale ends. The solution is to hit the purchase button ASAP

  • I've only been at this for a few months but I've observed that: a) stuff usually happens around 0600 UTC (12am MDT), so get your order in before then b) Flash sales last as long as the ad copy says or maybe a little longer. Of course the tricky part is that they don't really tell you the start time so sometimes it's a guess as to the end time

    As sad as it sounds, the question to "How do we know the time limit on sales?" is often ... "We don't."

    If you use the browser addon, you can sign up for new sale notifications, and you'll know (and can even look back in your emails) when the sale started: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/106296/announcing-daz-deals-browser-add-on/p1

    For flash sales there’s an alert thread which can help knowing when it started: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/4946446#Comment_4946446

    For sales from the classic “sale pages of the day”, the safest path is to assume they’ll end that day at midnight Daz time, especially during if sale events like the PA sale. Outside of those events they might last a few days but there’s no way to be sure.

    This one will run in the background in Windows and notify you as soon as the sales banners change:
