    Has anyone bought Sunset Motel yet? On my WL now. I can see a use for it later in my story but can't really justify the price tag at the mo.

    I can see that the room interior is separate assets so can be duplicated for other rooms to fully populate. But are all the doors openable?

    Hi, yes all the doors are rigged to open

    It looks spectacular, but expensive buy-ins are too much competition with all the other stuff on sale. I tried it in the cart and didn't have enough dollars to go around - ended up wishlisting it for now.

    Last of the store credit is poofed with a whole PA cycle left to go, and before whatever shenanigans happen Monday. Hard stop on the budget barring a couple spot buys, but I'm grateful for the goodies I got! :)

    I'm not too worried about waiting for it. I'll guarantee it'll be on 50% off sale in a few weeks like most recent new releases.

     

    Thanks for confirming that the doors are rigged.

    Watch out for the trap where they advertise things for under $1.99 (not talking about outlet or quick grab) and then raise the price in the cart.

    It should have prevented prices lo be lowered under 1.99 on store pages, but the price floor is advertised (see the 'Minimum price after discount: $1.99.' under  the FAS icons) and was visible from the start.

    But a customer should be able to open their browser, go to the store or wishlist, and see product prices, and have those prices appear in the cart. No customer should be required to go to a different web page, scroll and scroll to find some fine print on some portion of that other page, and be expected to understand that that particular fine print applies to the items they selected from the store product pages or wishlist. Fine print on Daz sales is often inaccurate and has to be amended after customer complaints. What is to be believed?
    A price on the product page should be the maximum ever charged. A sale might lower that price, but no "sale" conditions should ever increase an advertised product price.

    NVM it has to be the cache.

    @barbult yet there are times when we put items in the cart and the price drops! I don't think people complain about that. At very least, they shouldn't complain.

    A sale should only lower a price in the cart, not raise it IMO. If the price drops in the cart, peoiple assume some convoluted buy-in, buy-multiple, buy-this-get-that sale kicked in.

    I've had loads of stuff today that's come out under $1.99 once tokens are added.

     

    I probably shouldn't highlight this either really as someone will fix it, but I've managed to get 30 items in my basket with new release and artist item (32 total) before losing the max discount on individual products instead of the advertised 20 all weekend.

    It's intended: tokens (and coupons) are able to break price floors.

    Sometimes the details of a sale are so convoluted or complicated that I get a headache reading them.

    All too often I just skip a sale because it's too complicated.

    Yes, I agree with that! 

  • Unless there's something good tomorrow, I think I am done with this weekend's sales, even though there's a few other things I have been considering. One is OS, so price probably isn't changing for another week. As for the rest, they are just Nice to Haves, so if their prices increase tomorrow, it's fine by me.
