Well not literally, though my government as well as yours probably, does a pretty good job of it. I joined PC again and am entitled to a monthly money off coupon. I have experienced difficulty before with offers, and could not actually find an answer and this monthly discount may not be affected by the previous issues anyway. When i try to apply the coupon discount it gets rejected, see screen shots. Please tell me whats wrong, because A its frustrating, and B it affects whether i bother to join the PC again.

It pack doesn't qualify on that product. I only applies to DAZ Original and exclude PA products, Value Category, and $1.99 Category.
Thank you for that answer. I don't think i will bother with PC any more, Daz wraps all these offers in so many hidden conditions that they make it almost impossible to understand anything. My thanks to you...
You want to get the products with the little DAZ emblem on the bottom of the thumbnail. If it has the DO emblem and the PC emblem they it doesn't qualify.
I agree that this particular rule seems to have become a bit more buried away than it used to be (the Platinum club product page now only mentions "Thats over $70 of free DAZ Original content" while it used to be a bit more explicit with its description of which products the coupon could be used for). At least if my memory serves me right.
But I'd like to comment on the hidden conditions because that's something I don't fully agree on.
Thing is, but this is obviously just my opinion mind you, is that it's not so much the hidden conditions which are causing this confusion. It's mostly because you have to deal with multiple discounts which come with the discount membership.
For example; those $1,99 prices you often get to see are only there because you're a member. So when dealing with such a particular product you're already entitled to a discount (which you're automatically using). And then you're merely entering the issue where a store simply can't apply multiple discounts on one product.
The way I look at this: if you get a product for free then surely it's understandable that you can't apply any extra discounts to it in order to become entitled to actually getting some money together with the product itself?
Also keep in mind that there is a dedicated store section for the DAZ originals. You'll still come across the $1,99 items (and other discounted products), but it becomes a lot easier to get a good overview. I always go over that particular category to look for interesting goodies. The only thing to keep in mind is that if you come across discounts higher than 30% then the coupon is most likely not usable because another discount has been automatically applied.
As said, I agree about this particular rule not being as clear as it could have been (in my opinion) but although you might be a little disappointed with the whole thing now keep in mind that with a little digging you can come across some very interesting goodies at equal interesting prices. I've managed to get my hands on goodies for $0,97. Goodies which were usable for a whole lot more than merely that which they were intended for ;-)
That is also something worth considering IMO.
Alas, just my 2 cents here.
