    You want a rant?
    Saw the 100 dollar deal in my DIM 
    filled the cart 4 times applied the coupon 
    whoops the linked to page somehow manages to include stuff that isn't in the sale
    last time I'm trying to get rid of the last three that weren't and nope time runs out 
    and zip
    I'm off for a while and going to go cancel the membership again. 
    And I don't like having to assume that the deal in the dim is going to die same day ... Just put the expire on the coupon

    I still hadn't used the BULK-COLLECTION coupon. I couldn't pass on 97% off (combined with "70% off up to 50 with a Debut New Release", tokens, etc).

    Even more discount if you consider that it was store credit bought at 24% off.

    I'll probably never use half of it, and the time wasted to sift through everything... Feels bad.

    I'm happy DAZ updated the effective date for the WL discount coupon code. It now says items have to have been in your WL as of yesterday. It had been stuck on June 8.

    Well, my situation due to things that actually can't be discussed here has deteriorated to the point that I'm off the Daz procurement wagon for the foreseeable future. Sucks but that's how it goes.

    Just in case you're being too cryptic... 

    Today's two DO Deals:

    https://www.daz3d.com/daz-originals

    https://www.daz3d.com/studio-6-bulk-up

    It appears that there might be some ... and I mean SOME ... overlap

    • A Debut New costs < $8
    • The BULK-COLLECTION coupon __is__ reuseable

    94% off 'whatever you'd like to BULK buy' is some deal

    (No tokens factored in)

    Even starving families might consider it
    wink

    I totally missed the clue on the "$100-$200 off" sale. It was just a short blurb on a banner that was hard to read.

    I didn't catch on till people started saying what it meant. But even then no one really seemed willing to explain it immediately.

    I would have expected at least a sentance that said something like "Get $100-$200 off DAZ Originals."

    Yikes, I'm so sorry. Hope things turn around for you soon.

    I'm once more mildly annoyed that the free bundle selection is very limited. Maybe I should just stick to OS (QG still doesn't like me) and whistling down my WL when that fits my budget.

    Hope things start looking up @Torquinox

    Thank you smiley I hope so too.
     

    I do love taking a spin through the OS! And getting WL items is nice, too. So I think your plan is brilliant! enlightened

    I wonder if the Daily Dealz will be exclusive to gen9 stuff the entire month, makes it hard for me to even consider them

     

  • xyer0xyer0 Posts: 6,488

    I buy them for the discounts and hide the characters in DIM.

  • 3DSaga3DSaga Posts: 855

    Today's deal is an iSource Textues character, an immediate buy for me.

  • memcneil70memcneil70 Posts: 5,973

    I saw https://www.daz3d.com/le-caf in my DAZ email and fell in love. First thing in my cart before I looked at it, and then I found out it was by @Stonemason. Such a treat.

    I also was fascinated with https://www.daz3d.com/ptf-render-foundry options and a chance to play. 

    I added the https://www.daz3d.com/ist-elhareen-for-genesis-9 and it added a discount for my items in the cart. Which also included Nadine 9 and her HD which I had wishlisted yesterday.

    Clothes will auto-fit to Genseis 8, hair can just be moved and parented to earlier generations in most cases, poses can be converted. Even if you don't use Genesis 9 for humans the troll would have been usable as a stand-alone figure (if you have any use for a troll). I'm surprised there haven't been any prop sets, but I would expect most character-based stuiff to be be made for Genesis 9 these days.

    The answer was negative from the start: Zeddicuss's Daily Dealz was for both Genesis 9 and 8.

    The preponderance has been for G9, and that's not a surprise - We're years into G9's run. Folks looking for new G8 or earlier content might find something new at Rendo or other sites. That said, Daz back catalog has loads of treasure for the older figures. Unless one is like @Cybersox or Robert Freise, one will probably find plenty of desirable items available for purchase. At least, it works that way for me!

    Heads up if you're digging around in the special categories for ancient stuff - some of those products are crosslisted with the Featured Artist Stores, so if you want the 70% off Up to 5 from Featured Artist Stores they need to be in the cart first or they ring up at 50% off because ancient stuff steals their slot.

    Another good sales-day - I've always liked the DO sale and, after the 1st couple of days looking like the new format was going to ruin it, so far this one has been one of the bestsmiley

    Today...

    • 89% off the three StoMa items on my WL
    • My first Daily Dealz item (a great character at that price, and a big help with the discounts)
    • Actually managed to use the $10 off $25 coupon surprise
    • $20 all in - inc 2 QG to pad - so received as many tokens as I used

    cool

    ....I would just like to see something that is not character related or "sexy" themed.. It would be nice to have a useful  prop or vignette.

    The only DD item I've picked up so far was the Cave Troll as I do have a use for him and he can work as a "standalone" character without needing a lot of "add on" content.. Same for a number of RawArt's and Oso3D;a G9 creatures and monsters.  I do have the G9 - G8 clothing converters but so far the clothing items for DD have been on the "sexy" side.

    When you are on a limited budget, "throwing money away" on something that you won't ever use, whatever the price, is not an option,

    This is a tricky sale with regards to tokens and member coupons, since the best deals require a coupon code or limit the deepest discounts to 5 Featured Artist items. Optimal carts are small. Since it's Monday, I raided wishlisted stuff from outlet store + quick grab for a token boost.

    Yeah, I get why they use codes for a lot of things, but I'm giving my monthly membership coupons a sideways look and hoping some good deal drops later in the month where I can use them.

    This. I suspect it'll end up being double purchase day whenever it happens since the daily wishlist code is alway worth it.

    I used my last member code today because I had a lot I wanted from the Today's Special artist. Not as high value for the code as in other months, but I don't want to feel squeezed late month to use the code on random items if the sale maintains its trajectory. (I'd be out of tokens by then too!)

    Yes, the daily wishlist code has been fantastic. But the biggest token drain!

  • NorthOf45NorthOf45 Posts: 5,839

    So, a new look for the store today. New filter layout, new product tile format, new page selector, add to wishlist directly on the tile, plus a more visible wishlist indicator (yellow instead of black), plus that swirly thing when you refresh the page (makes me dizzy).

  • Singular3DSingular3D Posts: 658

    Yes, quite confusing and the new offers are a surprise as well.

    Fastest way to drive me away from shopping here. Products I have NO use for, a format that is crap, and you can't find what you want. Yeah. Good job DAZ.

    yeah, they could have tossed it a bodysuit consisting of string and an ugly 2 tone room with blocky furniture devil

    in duf format for those who cannot miss a day of buying new stuff

    I don't personally have enough money to even have a problem 

    just deciding what freebies I want still

    also, why can't I watch that video on YouTube

    specifically my 65"TV
