    a week ago there was a sale with 203 pages and no wishlist only option

    Wishlist Only is a Daz Deals feature, not the Daz site itself.


    But that was fixed later in the day
    Now there's another one and while the stack to 50/60%  isn't great I have 8 tokens to use and have other stuff in the cart
    But go through 203 pages with 120 items on each one? Naw
    ===
    3 hours until change.. taking a nap .. hopefully I'll wake up in time to see if they fixed it. 
    ----
    so two hours later and it was working ... the wishlist only.
    But is that from daz-deals pro, which I've never had or is Daz doing it (which is a very good idea)
    ---
    When I logged back in I could look at only 6 pages instead of 203... that I did do. 
    and bought a couple more.,

    But, really "Only Show Wishlist" and "Only Show Owned" should be part of the DAZ Store because, I believe, all the data necessary is already sent to the browser client on store page load and wishlist page load.

    I went to open a ticket for Request For Enhancement before but couldn't really find the right pull down; just for reporting problems.  Maybe I should just file it as a store bug and see what happens.

    I like both orc bundles, but especially the second one. I'm picking it up.

    I'm still tossing quarters. Best 2 of 3, 3 of 5, on and on.

    Is that it for today?...

    The orc bundle isn't bad, but there aren't any good deals in Newly Mad, Still Mad, Mad Artist Stores, Mad Related, Giants and Trolls, Orc-Related Items, Incredible Core Characters, Fantasy Structures, not without sacrificing 8 tokens for the cart and even with them, couldn't get the cart up to $30, which isn't worth 8 tokens.

    Looks like we're spending the weekend with the orcs.

    This could be good (lots of fantasy-related deals) or it could be frustrating (ie five straight days of "Buy Orc Bundle #3 to get...")

    Not a fantasy person myself, so I guess I can give my credit card a break either way.

    Seems your fears were not unfounded ...

    5 days of new orc assets, seems excessive.

    orcs are the new vikings

     

    oh and this hair, I wishlisted
    https://www.daz3d.com/kurdan-hair-for-genesis-9

    AFAIK it's a rigged transmapped mesh hair, the readme suggests it as well

    but want to be sure not a hybrid mesh/strandbased hair as would use it in software other than DAZ studio

    Zbrush fibermesh OK if not converted to curves

    (exportable to Carrara, iClone, Unreal)

    ...sadly Daz+ items no longer qualify as Featured New Releases for grab bag purposes. They did earlier.  

    Maybe it was just a "glitch". I happened onto.

    MSO Fate HD for Genesis 9

    Daz Originals G9F characters have tended toward mannish features/shaping (Victoria, Joan, etc), and PA efforts to look weirdly distorted (numerous, including some previous MSO characters), but Fate looks... pretty good actually. I'm impressed and might have mistaken the character as being G8 from a glance at the promos (which is a good thing).

    Is 50% off (for two in cart) the best discount available for new releases (without spending $80 for tokens)? I'm not "making the switch" after a single character, but I think I'll buy Fate later today to say "great job" and have an appealing base character for experiments with G9.

    If you have Grugmar as the other item, they get 55% off

    Getting https://www.daz3d.com/folklore-battle-bundle for 5$ (if you buy one of the orc bundles), is a great deal imo, thankyou DAZ!

    Oh no, they're really going to do this, five days straight with orcs ... crying And I'm so bored already after just two!

    Thanks - I just breezed over the orc sections. I like Grugmar's facial sculpt, but I'm not especially interested overall, so I'll have to do without the extra 5% off. Might go with something from Mad Artists. Wish that Still Mad stuck around longer.

    I'm assuming the character preset shown with the Kurdan hair isn't out for purchase? Now that's an orc!

    Hoping for a generous March Madness finale soon.

    For folks who seem surprised that we are going to have 5 days of orcs, they told us on day 1 there would be 5 days of orc releases for the new gen 9 orc horde.

    I have actually quite liked the releases for orc stuff so far.  Day 1 bundle was priced well, day 2 was priced slightly better, and day 3 (if you got the previous day bundles) is priced better than that.  I just wish we had some decent grab bag stuff to go along with this stuff.

    Hope we have some great sales tomorrow since I will have 8 tokens. :)

    ...just wanting it to end.  Again this is the least I ver spent during an MM event thanks to the new format and G9.

    Over iIn the sporting version of MM, no #1 teams are left. the remaining two, Houston and Alabama went down in the bracket of 16.

    #9 seed Florida Atlantic in the East Bracket made it to the Final Four  taking down #3 seed Kansas State.  Meanwhile, #4 UConn which walloped Gonzaga (my last team in the fight) 82 - 54 today.  Guess I become a Florida Atlantic fan as I always have a soft spot for such an underdog.

    * Earning Tokens and Token discount excludes Gift Card purchases. Use up to 8 tokens per transaction.

    Not a nice change... So now we have to really buy for 80$ to get things cheaper. But then again, it's not even cheaper and is not even close to what it was to buy stuff in the shop in the past... sad!  frown

    Nobody's surprised. Just bored. Very, very bored ....

    I've spent less during this MM sale than I have on regular month of regular sales. No interest in Orcs. For the first time, I think ever, I still have an unused PA coupon at the end of the month. I would be open to buy a small amount more of G9 products if I really liked them but I don't even like any of the products coming out. With the introduction of G9, my spending has gone way down, and I'm glad, lol. There is literally nothing I really want or need and even the G8 PA items I could maybe use (after the 10,000 or so other items) only come out to 62% with the PA monthly coupon. No incentive to buy anything.

    The flash sale today is pretty good if one has tokens for it. Everything at $1.95, when one has 6+ items in the cart and using 8 tokens for extra 40% off

    Doesn't need any buy-in either

    So spending the $ to get those 8 tokens doesn't count as a "buy-in" to you? wink

  • davesodaveso Posts: 7,138

    well, I was toying with the though of buying the orc bundles, but now the pricing is higher so the incentives are now gone. The price isn;t really too bad, but now if I but the 1st to bundles its dropped 7%. Doesn;t seen like a lot, but its the perception. Its the DAZ thing buy now or regret later when the price rises. Why do I get this feeling the prices will be lower again. 

    I do like todays orc a lot more than previous 3 though, but it reminded me of orc for G8M.

    Only if you buy other items for the sole purpose of getting the tokens. If you were buying stuff anyways and have them at the end of the week, it's a bonus. Like I don't make purchases on my credit card specifically to get the points, but if I use it for stuff and have points the to get something else, it's a nice little something extra. That's how I look at these tokens, I don't see it at all as having to spend 80 bucks to get 40% off because I'm not going out of my way to spend the money. I have 3 tokens after this week which if I see something I like today that I was going to pick up anyways, then I get an extra 15% off.

    Saved by Predatron! Just as I was starting to seriously wonder what to spend my last tokens on, along they come with a wonderful new landscape that fits one of my projects to a t. Threw in a very old but adorable stag beetle (it even has a tiny saddle for fairies, how cute is that) and with 4 tokens brought it down to 60% off. Quite happy now. Thanks, Predatron heart!

    Does that stag beetle work in studio or just poser?  I ask because it does not say it supports studio.
