No price showing means it's free, right?

I was going to break down and FINALLY start buying some genesis stuff since genesis 8 has finally provoked me to stray from V4 & M4 when I saw the 8.1 stuff and figured I'll find out more. I wandered over to https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-8-1 and see them shown with no price, but when added to my cart, combined they are over $60. Am I doing something wrong?

They are already in your account. Check the Genesis 8 Starter Essentials in DIM.
Musta been a glitch, everything there is showing a price tag for me. Just for info, the genesis 8.1 are free upgrades, just redownload and install all the g8 starter essentials, and make sure to upgrade daz studio. Word of caution though, the new daz studio has some transparency issues. The victoria 8 and micheal 8 stuff are paid addons.
So I shouldn't have been able to add them to my cart anyway ... ok ... I shall go update :) Thanks :)
By the way, what are the hair products Victoria 8.1 & Michael 8.1 are using in that promo?
No price? Then it's priceless, not free.
Generally no price means "NOT FOR SALE"
Genesis (insert whatever number) is for free, and should be more or less installed automatically with Daz Studio.
What that page links to however, are Victoria 8.1 and Michael 8.1, which are "advanced" character packages (with some nice outfits, extra hairs and privates pieces). These are based on the Genesis 8.1 character, and you'd need to have Genesis 8.1 installed to use them, but, these advanced characters do cost money.
So, just instal Daz Studio, log into the DIM installer (don't bother with Daz Central, it only causes headaches), install the Genesis 8.1 Essentials Package, and you should have the Genesis 8.1 figures (male and female) with some basic clothes and hairs.
I strongly advise to DO install the other Genesis figures (Genesis, Genesis 2 and Genesis 3) as well, there are some nice free outfits and hairs in those packages as well, and especially the Genesis 3 outfits are easy to fit onto Genesis 8.1 anyway. Just shoes tend to cause problems.
Thanks, everyone :)
