    The two links in today's offer lead both to the same 22k items selection. The one for the Featured Artists does not seem to display what it is supposed to - the featured artists only.

    I think the links are correct. The products by the Featured Artists are in this selection, from what I can see. When you go to a specific Featured Artist, it simply does a filter for the artist. Select sales items like these normally include products that aren't already involved in a sale elsewhere in the store.

    That's strange and it makes no sense to me. Why would there be two same sale links in the same offer?

    The one for the artists shoudl at least have them pre-selected. That would make sense. This does not at all.

    As far as I understand it, the point of the "View All Artists" button is to allow me to see all of those featured artists stores at once, without having to open a new window for each of them.

    This is what I mean, from yesterday's offer - only the featured artists are displayed: https://www.daz3d.com/saturdays-items-by-our-wonderful-artists

     

    We are letting Daz know about the links. One thing, "View All Artists together" is not a Daz button but is part of the Deals add-on. There have been a few instances where I've noted the groupings have differed between the add-on selection and the Daz one. Not in this case, that I can tell.

    No I'm seeing All Artists on my iPad which does the same thing as View All Artists together but without the Daz Deal add-on.

    Both sales have exactly the same discount so I can see why they were linked together though.

    They are part of the big sale. Calling them featured artists when they're behaving exactly like all the other artists is a bit funny, but that's it. Otherwise why is it a problem that 22k items are discounted and not just 500?

    Thank you, but I have no add-ons. Please, check the attached images - this is what I see.

    The illogical part is, that the Europe Day button for featured artists takes me into a selection of only those artists, while the Mothers day button shows exactly the same 22k items as the button above, meant for the main offer. Why would there be two buttons doing the same, each called differently. That makes no sense whatsoever.

    Very odd. My button only reads "All Artists". Maybe there is more than one layout somehow.

    Edit: Oh, you're talking about a previous sale for Europe Day. You were talking about the Mother's Day sale in your original post. "All Artists" is on the Mother's Day Sale. "View All Artists" on Europe Day. So when you said View All Artists, I thought you were using the add-on.

    No, I am talking about today's offer, the Mothers Day, which shows the same 22k items as the main sale and the featured artists alike.

    I am only using yesterday's Europe Day offer as an example of how the featured artists should be displayed, because that is how I always remeber it - it only shows a few hundred items (unless the artists have hundreds of items for sale each), not 22k+ items. I do not think today's artists are selling 22k items, coincidentially the same 22k items offered in today's main sale, which is quite improbable. The two buttons on today's offer page both take you to the same 22k items page. That is what I think is wrong.

    I took the time to count the items of the individual artists featured today on their individual pages.

    Virtual_World: 76 items

    Ansiko: 118 items

    JeffersonAF: 37 items

    Fugazi1968: 4 items

    3D Universe: 359 items

    Ironman: 3 items

    Total featured artists items for today: 597 items, not 22k items

    Yes, I had mentioned we are asking Daz about this.

    My references were to the use of View All Artists which is not on the Mother's Day sale, so you were confusing me.

    I see. Thank you. I have filled my cart already, despite the hickup. 60% off of several items I have been eyeing for some time. Great.smiley

    I was waiting for this discount to stack with the $60 free from valentino sale, i was loosing hope. But damn, 22k items?....... about 65% of my wishlist is included today (basically all non new, non pc+). My credit is not that big so now i will stress all day to see what i can buy angry And i wanted to keep some credit for next female core toon crying

    (on a side note, too bad all items from select genesis in  valentino sale are not included, that would have been awesome)

  • L'AdairL'Adair Posts: 9,479

    I waited to see if Daz would add another discount this weekend before picking up Valentino. I gave up when there wasn't a wekkend sale and bought him yesterday, only a few hours before the Mother's Day sale went live. I was kicking myself for not waiting… for about ten minutes. Then I realized, it had taken me for-eve-er to find the items I wanted out of a pool of things I'd passed up for years. Had I waited another day, I would have had to start over to find twice as many items. I'd rather spend the time working on 3D scenes! lol

    Guess that's what happens after you've been hoarding content for over a half a decade…!

  • MelanieLMelanieL Posts: 7,740

    Me too, sort of - I cracked and bought Valentino 8 Pro yesterday morning, when the Friday and Saturday sales hadn't made any change to those DO's prices. I kind of panicked that the Val 8 sale might end sudddenly (it has happened to me once or twice before). Mind you, there were no items I actively wanted in that pool of items, so while it took me half an hour to come up with three things I sort-of liked, today it would have taken all afternoon.

  • alex86firealex86fire Posts: 1,130

    This year, I haven't seen any Pro bundle sale finish until Monday so it is, I think, mostly safe to wait until Sunday or even Sunday evening (in case some flash sales appear) to pick it up.

    For me it was easy, I waited because I didn't think the Valentino sale offer was that good for the bundle itself. Coupled with the fact that the purple banner offer is in coupon form.

    Today I kept pondering if I should get it or not since there are actually enough items from my wishlist to pick up with the 60$ worth of free stuff, even after the 50% discount.

    In the end I opted not to. Not ebcause I don't like the bundle, because it's awesome but because I still think the offer is not good enough and I also don't need anything from it in the near future.

    I prefered to spend my money taking advantage of the my own sale coupon picking up products from OOT and Kool that usually aren't discounted more than 50 or 60%.

    All in all, a nice week and I still kept a little of my store credit in case I really love the Valentino counterpart seeing as there haven't been any good gift cards offers recently.

    ...bugger, the Mothers Day special ended early. Everything just want back to full price yet it's only 23:25 Daz time. Was just getting things into the cart when the prices changed.

    I just tested it, and it looks like in the cart it still shows half price, even if it doesn't in the sale. Not sure how long it will stay that way, though.

    Damn... I wanted a gift card sale but this has to be the worst gift card sale I've seen since I joined Daz in December 2019.

    Does anyone know why lots of stuff is on special for about 75% off?

    (I looked at some of the specials pages, but couldn't track it down)

    Is this an error? Debating whether to go grab a bunch of stuff now before Daz fixes it.

    I'm seeing it, but the actual percentages are fluctuating. Was about to grab some stuff but then it was full price, then back to 75%, then 50%, then 70%.

    I think it's probably an error sadly. D: The stuff I was looking at seems to have settled at 50% (and it was a vendor with a recent item, so that seems right). 

    Edit: Yeah, don't check out, folks. I tried at 50% and it charged me full price for the discounted item.

    I was all excited, had a huge cart, was about to check out, then the price shot up. Delete cart. Oh well, I have enough content anyway...

    Yeah, I was just about to pick up Harwood House and 2 pro bundles, but everything doubled in price at the last second. :(

    The price looked correct when I checked out, too. It's not a big deal for me in this case but man I hope nobody who isn't aware buys anything they can't afford to get a surprise full charge for. ><

    Oh, even weirder--it charged me full price for Linday's Long Wet Hair even though the 30% discount should still be active.

    Edit: All is well. Phew. Hopefully this kind of thing doesn't happen again.

    Good they've fixed it. Almost spent a lot of money, now it's uninteresting again. :D

    ..so the Mum's Day sale is still on, and here I rushed to get a couple things in the cart before I thought it was about to expire.

  • WonderlandWonderland Posts: 7,137

    Yeah, I almost purchased over $130 of stuff I never would normally purchase, but now removing from cart. It seems everyone would have benefitted if they kept the supposed "glitch"...

    Yeah, but who needs more sales in this econo-wait...

    But in all seriousness, it wasn't just those shiny pro bundles, but a lot of other PA's stuff went on a greater sale as well. Wouldn't want them to be short changed, for instance I was going to pick up Harwood House and possibly Discobob and Zev0's fit controls, neither of which are Daz originals so I can only imagine the hit they'd have taken would have been greater.
    (Which isn't to say that I'm not bummed out, would have been my first Pro Bundles...)

    I think a lot of items are in 2 sales of 50%. This is why the 75% discount. No idea if it was planned or not.

    True, but Gift card sales are not as common as normal ones :) and without store credit I'm not buying anything.

    On the other side, it costs about 40$ to activate the gift card for 30%. And since you can't pay them from mstore credit, that means actually about 50$. That is a lot!

  • davidtriunedavidtriune Posts: 452

    i just got a email notification from the daz price watcher for like 100 items lol

    i thought the plugin was broken 

  • AZDigitalArtistAZDigitalArtist Posts: 806

    I guess my problem is that I had notifications on a lot of stuff if it ever went at a ridiculous price, and I have a LOT of those notifications now to reset, which is a time suck, lol.  My bad for liking so much of everyone's work, I guess.  :)

    I've been spending a lot lately and definitely could use a gift card sale. The 30% off is a great discount; BUT the buy-in cost is pretty steep considering I don't need any of today's new releases. Guess I'll just have to curtail my spending for awhile

    I have to agree this gift card sale is really bad.
