    Yes, I got it to work. The conditions are:

    *Offer valid for intended recipients only.
    Coupon code usable once per customer.
    ‡Discount excludes New Releases, FastGrab Items, Gift Cards, and Memberships.
    Cannot be used to discount items already owned.

    And it didn't seem to work with DO items when I used it.

    How odd! I wonder why it didn't work for you? I got it to work with these:

    Has anyone else noticed how certain PA Genesis 9 items, even earlier ones from October and November, are still excluded from Feature Artist sales?

    I noticed this in early January, after waiting for three G9 items to go on sale.

    • Outoftouch's 10-in-1 Casual Wardrobe for Genesis 9 (released Oct 19)
    • JoeQuick's Toon Kids for Genesis 9 (released Oct 21)
    • Zev0 and Bitwelder's Genesis 3 and 8 to 9 Pose Converter (released Nov 3)

    After the initial 60 days, I started checking Feature Artist sales featuring those PA's but, despite these items no longer being new, even four months after initial release, they still haven't gone on sale. (All three of these PA's are part of the Mad Artist Stores.) It's curious, for example, how Outoftouch's Long Unisex Style Hair for Genesis 9 is not part of today's sale but the corresponding texture pack Long Unisex Style Hair Color Expansion is.

    I know it's up to the PA's which of their items goes on sale and which don't. So it is what it is. I'm just wondering if this is going to be a trend with G9. —Buy them when they're initially released at 30% off or wait 6-12 months before getting a deep discount.

    Has anyone got the 50% coupon code to work. It has some conditions, but I can't see what these are. It fails with NEW/SALE, NEW, and items from my wishlist.

    New items are excluded. Read the butterflyfish post above yours.

    Bought the basics for G9, am now waiting on steep discounts before I buy.

    At 335 product pages of owned items from DAZ alone I have enough toys to play with !!!

    Only 335? Try 789 and that doesn't include items from DAZ when they were part of Zygote way before Daz Studio existed and even before Victoria (Vicky1) existed

    I worked that out. I find it odd to get a banner that has links to exclusion s, but no way to see what they are. But having tried 3 random items from my wish list (not new), these do not work. So I am at a loss. I have looked at the message about this, where I can at least read the exclusions.

    The first time I tried to post the message, it semed to get stuck: hence the other post appeared before I posted.

    The new tree and mushroom critters by Joe Quick are absolutely adorable I think (https://www.daz3d.com/forest-spirits-tree-and-mushroom-for-genesis-9). Was hoping for something along these lines ever since G9 came out. And not too expensive either! Nice sunday morning surprise laugh

    If you can't see the full message on the banner, you can always go to the messages section of your account. The message from the banner will be there will all the information that got cut off. 

    There don't seem to be any limits on items used (as: the link in the message takes you to the store, not a pre-selected list), but it does exclude fast grab, so maybe the item you chose was in that selection at the time?

  • James_HJames_H Posts: 1,046

    Nope, b ut a reasonable idea. I selected relatively new (but not new) full-priced items, and the code was rejected.

    Golly, I'm a lightweight; I only have 177.  First item was The Old Bakery. 

    I agree with the sentiment wholeheartedly, as I haven't even yet bought the G9 Essential Shapes...

    I meant the limit on the selection of the items, not the limit of their numbers.

  • barbultbarbult Posts: 24,757

    The code worked fine for me. I used it the day the message was received.  Are you getting the code invalid mesage or the error processing message? The error processing message actually means it is working (not a great message choice on the part of Daz),and you just have to be patient and let it work itself out.

    Was heading to bed, but re-read the messages... "Saddle Up Your New Horse" says "...for just the price of the Items you don't own"

    Having bought the Mega Bundle on friday, I can use the smaller bundles as buy-in's for free (becomes free in the cart) as I own everything on them.

    Hey thanks for pointing that out - it got me a rather nice discount on three items for the Extra 50% banner offer!

    Oh yes! I am very, very, very tempted. I will have to wait for payday however. Alas, woe is me.

    But like many others here, I have plenty of things to play with and many are also adorable.

  • What's the best price possible for the DAZ Horse 3 Bundle? Wondering as there are so many things which might reduce the price (Owning DAZ Horse 3, DAZ Horse 2 Pro Bundle, buying more releases, buying releases from certain categories and what not).

    I got the mega bundle for $30.02 on Feb. 25. I don't know if that is the best price.

    That's what I paid, too, on the 24th.

    Guess I waited too long then. Price was $27 on Sunday. Had decided to go for it with the DAZ coupon but forgot to checkout. Today the Mega Bundle is now $55 in my cart. And that is unfortunately too much for a casual ride ;-) But well, also not that bad to reach March with full store credit ;-)

  • Wasn't paying attention to the sale. G9 still looks bad, despite the efforts of skilled PAs to salvage it, and thus most new releases are uninteresting. Also, the discounts seem to revolve around having purchased G9 items, so I wouldn't be getting good prices anyway.

    But the Daz Horse 3 bundles brought me around, so I looked at some of the offers. Stupidly complicated. I really didn't miss trying to puzzle out what's actually required to the get "the real discounts" for items.

    For example, I had three new releases in the cart - items for which the PA included G8 fits. Might have decided to buy them eventually. But they jumped from 68% off to only 55% off. I gather part of that is due to the key items today being G9 items - I suppose they were something else yesterday? - but I have no idea what accounts for the rest of the difference.

    I hope the next Daz+ sale isn't like this... But I suppose it does save me spending on items I don't really need.

    ...wondering if I'll be able to use my Daz PA coupon before it expires. Really not much to choose from tonight as everything requires a "buy in" (again in a several cases two or more new releases) to get a decent discount. And all the G8 H3 stuff neither which is interesting. Hopefully there's a flash sale later today (that doesn't have a coupon code).

    Maybe they should allow Fastgrab items on the PA coupon just to give us another option if nothing else looks interesting.

    Not sure if this is the right thread. I bought the Daz Horse 3 mega bundle yesterday. Mainly because I wanted the saddles and the poses and carts a bonus. My issue is I can't find a slider for altering the length of the stirups. I thought this would be a given in any saddle or how do you use characters of different dimensions. I have Victoria 9 on a female thoroughbred in a ride pose with the English tack. Now the pose does say "standard horse 3". It shouldn't realy matter, just a tweek of the pose not feet dangling in the air. Victoria is posed correctly, pose is the middle pose of the first picture with blue back ground. https://www.daz3d.com/gentle-horse-poses-for-horse-3-english-horse-tack-and-genesis-9

  • Anybody able to use XTRA50. Tried this on 3 artist items in my cart without success. Current sales are unfortunately way too complicated. I don't have the time to fiddle around with products, carts and coupons any more. If DAZ wants to keep me as a frequent customer they better get their act together.

    the only pay for what you don't own gap has only gotten worse for the reindeer bundle,
    I probably should just grab the poses and call it a day

    but the 40% is not that awesome that I cannot wait a few months

    Apparently the "only pay for what you don't own" expired with the weekend, even though the orange banners are still in messages.

    I also haven't used mine.  If MM continues as it has been thus far, I likely won't next month either... frown

  • Waiting for someone, so I took another look at the sale. I see part of it now: Only "Newly Mad Releases" get the full discounts, and they fall into "Still Mad Releases" for a worse price the next day, apparently. Lame FOMO tactics - "OMG, buy it now without thinking or miss out!"

    And the math still doesn't seem to work out for the full difference anyway, after accounting for the key items and FOMO nonsense. Think I'll go back to mostly ignoring this sale, unless they run a "catch-up" in which the full discounts return. Note "full" - not interested in paying extra for the audacity of not immediately slamming "Place Order" whenever something mildly interesting catches my attention. Believe it or not, that's not an attractive proposition.
