Once again more repeats tonight of past pa's. I count two pa's tonight that hasn't appeared yet this month, the other 4 are repeats. Is daz scared to put on some of the really good pa's or something? All of these pa's on the vendor list and we get repeats with the minimum of pa's who haven't appeared yet this month. I'd like to see some Deviney, Zev0, Cute3D, IgnisSerpentus, Jack Tomalin, etc, etc.  and a whole bunch of others. WTHeck!!! Comon daz! Seriously getting bored with this.

Repeat list thus far:

Danie x 2, Marforno x 2, Swam x 3, StoneMason x 2, Esha x2, Predatron (lost track) x 2?, 3d-ghdesign x2, Detiny's garden x2, PandyGirl x2 (I think)?

  • The PAs that go on sale tend to be the ones that are releasing new content that day, so the more active ones will appear more than once.

    If Jack Tomalin's got anything new, hee's probably saving it for the PC+ sake next month, since he's heavily involved in that. Zev0 has a new version of Shape Shift expected any day - so they'll be in the sale. As far as Deviney, Cute3D, ignisSerpentus go - we'll just have to see...

    Understand. Thanks. I heard about the new Shape Shift and that that catalogue may go on sale then, that will be excellent. I'd hope Jack will still go on sale this month, but if he don't I guess like u said next month.......hopefuly. I sure hope the others I mentioned go on sale, I'm sitting here on cash waiting for them.

  • Jack's been working on some big projects of late you can follow him on his facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Jack-Tomalin-3D-Artist-169298263113899/timeline/

    a lot of others have either a facebook or deviant art page as well and often show us or hint previews of what they're working on with little teasers

    Usually the day after most of us go broke. For the first time this sale, I didn't find anything I don't have a direct use for for what I'm doing right now. I'll get the squishy morphs eventually, but if I get them now, I'll be tempted to use them for character promos, and that could be Bad.

    This,mostly commonly during the catchup at the very end.

    I often appreciate it when a PA's store goes on sale more than once.  Quite often I won't have the funds the first time around, but may the second.  This year the funds haven't been there yet, but the month isn't over yet.  ::fingers crossed as I rub lucky coin and fortune frog::

    . Be thankful they bothered to make deeply discounted products. And be careful what you write- you have inferred the PA's who are participating so far are "not really good PAs" whether you meant to or not.

    This is the best time of the year to release for PA's. This is our best chance to make up the money we lost during the summer months that are always slow and hit or miss. The PA sale pays for our Christmas since they changed the month of the PA sale a few yr back. Do you blame a PA for wanting to make money on the best sale month of the year?

    I'm actually rather glad at the repeats, they're useful to group purchases...

  • not everyone can be really good. and people are allowed to have opinions right? devil

    If it's not something you would say to someone in person, then you don't say it.

    Not all PAs sign up to be part of the sale.  If they don't submit a product,  then no new product,  and no featured store sale day for that PA.  It is their choice to participate.

    To be fair they didn't say anything :) And if you read the tone it was all about loving another group of PA. And I would walk into the Daz office and say it if I could.

    "Is daz scared to put on some of the really good pa's or something? " With the pitch rising at the end of the sentence, throwing my hands up in the air. Invoking Chris Tucker if I could.
    Ever since Richard called me out for adding the apostrophe it's nice to keep seeing other people make the mistake, in one case I saw a PA do it as well.

    Though, I must say I wouldn't use the same group of PAs as referenced. No offense intended, I just have different stuff in my wishlistdevil

    This is why we wait for the catchup sale. Very high chance there will be one.

    @Horus, you missed Ironman13 who I think has been on sale more often than not so far this month. I count 4 new products.

    @Novica, thanks for the comment. I am going to (have to) assume the OP meant no disrespect, after all, I ended up on the same list with Stonemason. wink

    Also keep in mind, some of us NEED to get out at least two products a month, regardless of the month, in order to do stupid stuff like buy groceries and pay the bills. We are not trying to steal anyone's spotlight. I'm sure everyone's favorite PA will be on sale eventually.

    DAZ is not our task master and does not have control over when and if we submit products any given month. And as Destiny'sGarden said many PA's have to shoot for 2 products every month in order to have an income that will support them. That even goes for the PA sale. Normally I shoot for 2 products every month but I was distracted and may not get even my one product in the sale because I was late submitting.

    I would also like to ask that you please keep in mind that PA's are real people with real feelings and saying that the PA's who did get their products in on time so they could go early in the month are not "really good" because your waiting on someone else is a bit hurtful and unkind. I'm sure you meant it as a complement to those you want but it sounds very uncomplimentary to about the 20 so so who have put the effort into getting a product ready for the sale.

    Keep 'em coming!  The sale has such a variety that it's fun shopping. Sets, hair, poses, shaders, characters- really good stuff! (From ALL the vendors.)  And if I recall, you submit the products and they go down the pipeline, it's not like you pick and choose the exact day your products get released.
