Additional RSS Feeds

I noticed there are a few RSS feeds, for some categories on the DAZ site here: http://www.daz3d.com/rss/

Any chance of getting a FastGrab one like there used to be? (or is there one and I am missing it?)

    I found this post looking to see if anyone had either mentioned a Fast Grab RSS feed or found a hidden one. I would like to see one, too. I'd be much more likely to buy things with such an RSS feed.

    Greetings,
    FastGrab items show up as specials in the specials file. I use both of those for the 3D Wishlist site, and FastGrab is definitely one of the things I track. It changes at DAZ midnight, typically.

    While I don't doubt the Fast Grabs are in the specials feed, that feed is MASSIVE (It'd also be nice if there was an RSS feed that had PC prices instead of the standard prices)

    Greetings,
    If you are logged in, you do get the PC prices as part of specials. (It makes it SIGNIFICANTLY larger, fwiw.)

    You can't really get the specials list as a logged-in user from an RSS reader, however. You need to log in via the normal login process, get the cookie, and retrieve the RSS feed with that cookie...not something a typical RSS feed reader will do.

    I could digest and regurgitate the feed in smaller RSS bites, if you trust me to provide the RSS feed.

    The big one that I think would be MOST interesting to folks is an RSS feed of 'recently changed prices', because knowing that a PC item is still $1.99 isn't very helpful, and makes a lot of noise. I already do something similar for emailing folks when items on their wishlist which have recently discounted, and I could probably build a feed of that same information.

    Well, after marking the whole feed as read, it's not too bad (it was over 600). I've already benefited from the feed by seeing Sickle Rigging System pop up on it for $12. But yeah, a recently changed prices would be best (I thought that's what it'd be). There's really no good reason for Daz to not have a ton of different feeds, including PC (why would you want the PC one to be PC members only? It'd serve to advertise why you should get PC if non-PC people saw it).
