The Grab Bag deal today is an odd one.

1. Its selection is really small

2. The items are actually cheap enough that using the Coupon code instead of tokens is losing you money.

I also noticed that some items are cheaper with the Gold Star discount than when I apply the Coupon code (I have DAZ+).
I removed the coupon code but that didn't help much because as soon as I added a new release the price went up again.

This one is a famous cosplayer but again I don't recognise them

Madison isn't based on anyone in particular according to TX - she's a unique characters.

 

Shirogane is based on: https://www.instagram.com/shirogane_sama/

Tri-X's latest, TX Bree Premium PACK Genesis 9/8/8.1, is an "iconic actress from the Internet" - is that a euphemism for "porn star"?

In this case, yes, as the product page says she's "inspired by an iconic actress from adult entertainment"

‘Thank You For Being a Member: Daz+ and Premier Members enjoy an extra 10% off the Mad Artist Stores today!’, says the orange banner today. Nowhere is there any mention of buy-ins. But when I put an item, say an older one from IgnisSerpentus' store, in my cart, I only get the 20% I get anyway as a Premier+Gold Star customer. Is this another one of those famous glitches, or is there something in particularly small print somewhere that I've overlooked?

The 10% is already baked-in the price shown on the store: as an example, items in the 60% selection have a 64% base discount.

Having said that, if an item is old and cheap enough, the 10% doesn't allow their base price to go bellow $3 (60, 70 and 80% selection) or bellow $2 (85% selection).

But you should still see the effect of the 20% gold star discount once a $3 / 2$ items from either the Mad Artists Store or the Related Madness (you won't get the 10% on the related madness items though) selection is added to your cart.

Indeed, it's baked, but, if I'm doing the calculations based on the full price (100%), I have to reapply it.

I've sent a support ticket to Daz, but of course they won't answer quickly enough for me to make a purchase. Any ideas what is going wrong and if there is anything I can do to fix it? I assume not and that for some unknown reason I don't have the gold star discount for the first time (and there is no way of checking, most irritatingly).

registration, instead of sending tickets, I'd recommend checking sales reporting thread first. Usually, you can see if people are having the same problem, if there are any solutions yet (like someone spotting a typo in the coupon code etc.), and if mods reported it or got any feedback from Daz.

Thanks for the very useful suggestion. I should bookmark that page. I see the gold star discount has been causing a lot of headaches! I don't have time to read through it all, since it's working for me again, so I don't know if it's an ongoing individual problem or was a problem for everyone today (since the last post states "Looks to me as if this is now fixed.").

It was an issue for everyone, fixed once Daz people were available to respond to our report.

SAdly after I made a purchase. ticket filed

Really would be nice if the sales just worked, seems like every day has required a correction partway through

It would be particularly helpful if the gold star system were more tangible too: ie if it were visible in our carts, so we'd know if we have one or not. I expect I'm not the first person to suggest that though!

Debut New releases still are not getting the advertised 50% discount for having a gold star and also are not increasing the discount on Still New releases. Please fix

Looks to me as if this is now fixed.

‘Thank You For Being a Member: Daz+ and Premier Members enjoy an extra 10% off the Mad Artist Stores today!’, says the orange banner today. Nowhere is there any mention of buy-ins.

Is this another one of those famous glitches, or is there something in particularly small print somewhere that I've overlooked?

I've been happily purchasing large volumes of assets the last few days at great discounts when also including all the tokens I am accruing (I have yearly Daz+ membership). On Saturday, for instance, I bought PW Mega SuperYacht for $17, instead of the $59.99 RRP (ie 72% off). Today, however, I put the XI Fairy Tale Bundle into my cart but it shows just 37% off. I'm not even sure why it shows 37% either, when it was 30%. Even if I add 8 tokens, the percentage increases to just 56% off! 

I've sent a support ticket to Daz, but of course they won't answer quickly enough for me to make a purchase. Any ideas what is going wrong and if there is anything I can do to fix it? I assume not and that for some unknown reason I don't have the gold star discount for the first time (and there is no way of checking, most irritatingly).

I made a purchase yesterday of way more than $1. I have this "Quick Fantasy Vignette" that has full list price of $14.99. The price on my cart is $8.39 which is $14.99 x .7 (regular discount w/o Gold Star) x .8 (Gold Star discount to entire order for Premier members). It should be $4.86 = $14.99 x 0.5 (Gold Star 50% discount) x .8 (Gold Star discount to entire order for Premier members) x .9 (Orange banner discount: Get an extra 10% off Mad Artist Stores, since Dreamlight is listed on the Mad Artist Stores) x .9 (Get an extra 10% off* Mad Artist Stores when you include any Newly Mad Release). Not sure if the last two apply, but, if they don't, there should be an exception since the the Mad Artist Store is the store of the "mad artist" (duh...) and not the selected items of the store of the "mad artist."

Also... Mad Artist Store's items are getting a completely erroneous discount... But I can't be bothered to do any other calculations since everything seems to be working wrongly. I'd rather not to buy anything...

My gold star expires after today, so I'm buying the new hair from Neftis. Without tokens or coupons it sells for $3.99. That's only 60% off but the hair looks pretty nice.

Is that Avabella? It does look nice. Too bad it's dForce.

Yes, dForce Avabella Shy Soft Curls For Genesis 9 | Daz 3D  I like dforce hair actually. It reacts better in poses, but I'm having some problems with explosions, not on this one, I haven't tried it yet, but a lot of others. I still can;t figure out how to avoid collisions with things in the scene.  

You got a bargain. The base price more than doubled today. 

Debut New releases still are not getting the advertised 50% discount for having a gold star and also are not increasing the discount on Still New releases. Please fix

I have to correct a bit of what I said before, I think maybe some things don't work. I put an item from "Mad artist stores" in my cart and on the 22nd I made a purchase, so today I should have had the 10% gold star discount plus the 10% discount for DAZ+ and Premiere, but it seems only the 10% gold star discount is applied. Attached are images of the same item in the store and in the cart.

 

Richard said that Daz was aware and working on it.

I have the same problem.

I would suggest waiting some days, if you have the Daz+ coupns

Same here. Gold Star has no effect on the prize.
