    And the giant bannered 4 hour 70 percent off sale... doesn't seem to be working.    It will discount with new releases that were released today, but not with anything else.  

    ...so what happened to that Flash sale?  according to the promo It was supposed to feature a new set of PAs every 4 hours but it is nowhere to be seen now. 

    Was it another "Daz glitch"?

    I saw one tile that said "final two hours" and looked like it had all the PA's included... weird for it to not go all day, though so not sure if that released early or if it was as planned. There really hadn't been an indication that it wasn't going to be the usual day-long rotation... at least that I noticed. Of course, it also didn't say it WOULD be all day, just that it would change in 4 hours.

    I'm vitually out of store credit and really need a good gift card sale; but having to buy not one, not two, but three items from a very small selection to get 15% off definitely is not it. Please, please, please DAZ could we have a good gift card sale.

    stack with three of today's items (put the GC in first, followed by today's items from expensive to cheap), and get 32% off the GC while maximising the percentage on the other items

    Yes, thank you DAZ. Gift card bought !

    Aha, gift card! Pouncing now...

  • jmucchiellojmucchiello Posts: 624

    I'm glad i randomly checked this thread. I almost checked out without the hotpick flash. Of course, I did have to dump the cart and put the expensive stuff in first. Highly annoying.

  • WolfwoodWolfwood Posts: 849

    I would had missed the flash sale if it wasn't for this thread.

    Did not stack with the current sale one because it would had required a bigger GC to break even of items i don't really wanted, but 20% without buy ins is definitely a decent GC discount in my book, Thank you.

  • danmast94danmast94 Posts: 138

    glad I checked this thread. got to buy 3 extra things and spent less than if I'd just bought the GC on its own

    I was in a similar situation. 15% off a giftcard was not too bad, but with such a high buy in the offer was pretty poor. With the coupon code the giftcard was 32% off and the buy in was cheaper, a much, much better offer.

    Hopefully I have enough credit now to see me to the summer DAZ+ sale, and (I hope) most of the way through that.

    I purchased a $500 gift and three of today's new releases that I was only marginally interested in for a total cost of $364. So, basically I got the gift card for 27% off and 3 free items.

    Exactly ... that was my play also.

    I missed it by about 30 seconds! Was gonna do a big one, I guess I'll sit this one out. :P

  • rokkrrokkr Posts: 342

    S**t... Got my -20% gift card, but, because of my lack of due diligence, didn't check the thread, so I lost ~$10 + 3 items... Like, nothing to die for, but it's always better to get things for free/pay less... Note to self: always check this thread before checking out...

    noticing my LD pricing seems to have increased. Everything for a couple weeks over $5.00 .

    Up until around a week ago, they were first a Daz Originals wide store sale to celebrate the release of Daz Studio 2025 Alpha, then it was replaced by a more limited but still quit extensive Daz Originals sale and now, I didn't check too closely, but I think it's back to a couple of hundreds Daz Originals on sale per day, instead of a couple of thousands or the whole list of non-New Daz Originals.

    So of course, with only a limited number of Daz Originals on sale, LDs prices are higher.

    LDs are DOs, so if you have let your membership lapse you will lose that extra 30% discount.

    And when there's a catch-up sale, even if there isn't a specific DO deal going on, enough artists are reprensented that your chance of landing a LD with one of them goes up.

    ...OK there is another "60% off flash sale" in Sunday's Splash Sale promo.  Will this one still be active when I awaken later as I'm too burned out right now to make budget related decisions..

    Splash is not Flash, so probably so.

     And then you use the gift card on a later purchase? I keep meaning to do this.

    if you click the banner, it takes you to a page with the available selection and an expanded version of the banner at the top with an expiry time of a minute before DAZ midnight. So, providing it functions properly, you should have all day.

    Oh my gosh! There are so many sales. I'm overwhelmed.

    Then I realized I'd already spent all my free money on DAZ Goodies earlier in the month.

  • davesodaveso Posts: 7,796

    finally got a decent priced LD item, and took 5 items off my WL with this SPash sale event. Had to buy 2 new items so I bought the 2 newest DAZ+ items and got those for $1 plus some change each, so the buy-in was very minimal for 80% discount, plus used my 8 tokens, so not too bad a total

     

  • rokkrrokkr Posts: 342

    Pardon my ignorance, but what are LDs?

  • ElorElor Posts: 3,190

    LDs stands for Lightning Deals: https://www.daz3d.com/lightning-deals

    Only 4 tokens here, and it didn't knock things low enough to pull the trigger.

    Hoping for something workable tomorrow or Tuesday, otherwise I guess they expire.
