     any other incentives around to buy these orc bundles? I'm at $51 for the whole tribe, but it would be cool to knock off a few more bucks. All my 1 token expired yesterday. 

    But with that $51 purchase you will get 10 tokens today. 

    true. I think they will still be valid on the 1st, April FOOLS day, when I get paid.  

    Not a bad option to pick up the whole set today and get 2x tokens, but I hate how wishy washy the tokens are.  Today you can get 2x tokens, but there might be NOTHING else you want until the following Monday when they have all expired.

    All things considered, though, they should just give expiring tokens for folks who buy the gift cards only instead of spending, OR make it so tokens don't expire so you can save them up for when you really want to use them.

    THIS.

    Yesterday, I was using up my tokens so they wouldn't go to waste, and in the process, I gained some more tokens that did go to waste... If they do have to have an expiration date, I'd prefer for the tokens to be a monthly thing like coupons. Less pressure, less stress, and more incentive to keep buying to collect tokens, because there might be something during the month you want to use them on.

    Or make each token earning have its own role over expiration date.  So make it so that each token earned is good for 30 days from the day it is earned.  So that, at a minimum, you have more time to naturally acrue them.  Then when token are going to expire, just have a little notification saying x number of your tokens expire on such and such date.  2x token earning days would so much more meaningful in that case.  Right now it is like the first cell in minesweeper you click on.  Maybe it will work out great, or maybe you bust. lol 
    Also, it feels SO GREAT when you earn 10 tokens to have them expire 2 minutes later! lol  It is stupid that tokens earned on a Sunday evening expire at the end of Sunday.

    * 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 
     

    It made me trash my cart too. I guess I won't be buying anything during this sale... Buy-ins for a future discount are usually a big no in my dictionary, this offer was tempting but it doesn't work with GC.

    You have to love the flying fickle finger of fate... 200 pages of sale stuff...no wishlist option .. one page today and wishlist option is there. 

    The "Show Wishlist Only" is a DazDeals feature, and hasn't worked on Chrome for couple of months, works intermittently on FF and Opera if one waits long enough. 

    It works for me---on Chrome---which is the only reason I use Chrome now.

    Well this is interesting.  This flash sale, "Get Them Before They're Gone" is showing up on my iPhone (unlogged in), but not my logged in PC accout.  So, I unlogged from my account on my PC, and it's still not showing up.

    https://www.daz3d.com/get-them-before-theyre-gone

    Is it a mobile exclusive (if DAZ does such a thing)?  Or is it just me?

    Someone in Daz broke the Varg bundle discount price so that the buy the bundle to get an extra 40% off it or other still mad orc bundles, does not apply.  I don't know if that is an issue for folks who did not qualify for the bonus additional 70% off from having previously bought the whole set, but something to check on if you bought the item earlier.

    The price calculations were right this morning before 9am EST, but broken some time after that.

    ...well gee golly, actually bought a couple items oiff my wishlist that were discounted in the Mad Artist and Daz Figures sale, getting 4 tokens for them for the deal.  Still have my PC Daz+ coupons  as well. Wednesday is "Daz+ Day" so I may actually have the 8 tokens I need for the full 40% discount by Friday.  If they put all the PA stores on sale again for the finale, finally will get a few of the pricer items off my wishlist.

    What time did they put up the flash sale yesterday?

    I was staying up until past my midnight (3:20PM DazTime) waiting for one before pulling the trigger on the cart, only to wake up in the morning and see that they did put up one...

    The flash sale never showed up on my PC.  I noticed it on my phone when I got into bed around 12:30 am.  I was checking to see if someone had responded to my issue with them breaking the Varg bundle discount.

    Curious how you know that Wednesday is Daz+ day?  Is there somewhere that is announced?  And by Daz+ day do you mean the Daz+ for a day where some non Daz+ items are treated as if they are Daz+ items?  Thanks. :)

    They mean the day the new actual Daz+ items (and the weekly Daz+ freebie) are released each week.

    Well, something is better than nothing; but today's gift card sale is not very exciting -- Only 14% discount and that requires a $200 minimum AND the purchase of a new release. Pretty Lame !

    Ok, once again after we on this side of the pond had gone to bed...

    There were a few items I could have picked up for the cart I was buying anyway, but not in a cart of their own.

    I notice this too when the bundle price jumped later in the day. I still bought it, I am now wondering if I can be bothered to file a ticket to reclaim the two dollars I lost as a result.

    I would.  But that is me.  I want the discount that it says I am supposed to get.  As I have already well documented and explained this issue both in the reporting thread and a ticket I submitted, it should be easy for others to be able to get their prices adjusted once mine is processed so long as they also submit a quick ticket.  If not, then it would be false advertising, which I am 100% certain was not their intent, and purely someone messing up the discounts again.

    I spent 5 days buying the bundles to get the best price, so I want my best price I was advertised.

    Did the banner for the hair flash sale get pulled early? Could've sworn it said 21:59, but maybe I'm mistaken. Prices still in effect for the moment - might want to check out now if wanting to grab some of them.

    Yeah, it was on the main page but disappeared early. And now it's back again.

    Edit: Spoke too soon... Gone again. Crazy. But the prices are still in effect.

    Edit: And back again...

  • same day more of the same. 
    Talk about your stacking discounts...
    extra 40% off on up to four
    well, it worked on item one
    But item 2 regressed from 58% base 
    to a straight 40% with no stack of another 40%
    ---
    it's not newly mad, it's not daz plus, it's not a gift card, and I don't own it. 
    And pretty sure I won't ... at least tonight.

    I didn't even know about the hair flash sale.. . 
    the price shown was after I opened my cart for the dazforty sale 
    but at least it should have taken it back to 40% and then added the 40% for the coupon
    But i sure won't buy and then count on sales giving me a credit somewhere down the line

    Something doesn't work properly with Daz+ Newly Mad Releases. The first item you add to cart works fine, but adding a second item increses the price by 0.2 instead of taking 20% off.

    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, 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.

     

    Yes, wishlist only.. needs to be a daz thing... if a 3rd party can make it work part of the time... daz should be able to do it all the time.
    I'm not motivated to go through a hundred pages to find one of the things in my wishlist .... so daz and the PAs lose. 
    OTOH since I have spent way too much on daz... as long as they don't find a way to do the wishlist show .. I win because I don't see the items I want so I don't buy them

    It went back to full price after the flash sale, so just the 40% discount for the coupon was correct, I think, unless you were also using tokens (in which case, I don't know if they were supposed to stack or not).

    These sales are much too convoluted - the dozen or so interactions on the main sale page, flash sales, now tokens. Corrections and changes throughout the day. Is it even worth the time to parse what's going on with today's sale? Any great deals to be had?

    I'm hoping the "Madness" isn't extended into April.

    It seems DAZ has decided to drive me into financial doom... The question remains, what can one do with the abundance of tokens?...
