    I did notice that but I am also not spending the money I have before Easter

    I have other things in real life not 3D content I want it for

     

    edit, the price is not the problem 

    it's my lack of control once in DAZ+

    it is like giving an alcoholic a drink

    LOL, so true... wink

    Unfortunately, the trial membership I bought in December got extended in the last membership sale for another year for less than $30.

    I guess.  My thought is if you pay for Daz + membership, then you can count your free stuff each week as "buying" things without doing so.  52 free weekly items, 12 free monthly items, and 12 monthly coupons for $6 off stuff which can often buy little things out right so long as it matches the correct criteria. That is like 76 items with out spending anything except membership and patience.  Oh, and even more free items because they give extra free stuff away to members during things like Daz aniversary.

    Starting to look like they are again keeping me up past midnight, hoping that I'm wrong and they'll give us the additional sales within the next hour and a half...

    How unfortunate that the NEWLY MAD DAZ+ Releases do not count as a buy-in for the BONUS GRAB BAG - well, another day without buying anything...

    Why is that?  They're literally listed ON THE PAGE as "Newly Mad DAZ+ Releases".  Can somebody at DAZ clarify this?

    *EDIT* I see now that they specifically call out "Newly Mad DAZ+" on one of the promos.  That's shady as heck. Not all Newly Mad releases are DAZ+, but the DAZ+ ARE "Newly Mad" releases, and should qualify.

    Newly Mad Daz+, rather than plain Newly Mad I guess. + items are usually not valid, though there are occasional exceptions

    What happened to Havana Street? It looks like it is no longer in the store. I wondered why my cart was less than it was earlier, then I realised that Havana Streetwas no longer in it and I can't add it.

    It's been reported

  • JazzyJazzy Posts: 21

    Same happened on this end...I started thinking I must have simply made a mistake along the way.  Thanks for letting us know it has been reported.

    Does anyone else see a new page for the sale today?

    Mine shows the same page as yesterday with the same items and offers

    Edit: Cleared the cache and that changed the image in the carousel, but the sale page still remained the same.

    Same. I can see the new items on the shop page, but not the deals page.

    Same here but I scrolled down and was able to see the new character there.

    From another thread: it’s been deactivated temporarily while they rename it as PayPal doesn’t like its name…

    Has anyone a working link to today's page to share with us ? Not just the new releases, the page with the sales and stuff...

  • Phew. It is still crazy that the excluded all Gen9 stuff from Artist Catalogs even if the products have been released several months ago. This is especially crazy with clothing where the textures (non G9 categorized) are discounted but the main outfits not.

    No discount for buying both bundles, when the most expensive item is in both of them? It's a lot cheaper to get one bundle and just the items from the second bundle (24.89 for the items vs 32.01 for the (Aroon) bundle).

     

    Also there are 2 items listed along with the Xiu Lin 9 HD and Aroon Bundle items that aren't in the bundle, instead of being in the additional new realease section. Are those supposed to be part of the bundle?

    I hate it if I get announced something free and then I see that I have to buy an expensive bundle. That is NOT free, it is an extra add-on.

    Did you look at the 'free' items... Nothing much to get excited about.

    Indeed; it's a BONUS, not free...

    ..I know. 

    Maybe they will during the Daz+ spring sale in another month 

    Speaking of, considering this MM I am having trouble trusting that that the Daz+ sale will be worth buying a membership. And it doesn't help that I didn't find the last Daz+ sale (or any of the September to December 2022 sales) as good as in previous years - even ignoring the shortened sale to accommodate the release of a certain new figure line.

    If you get a good deal on annual membership, isn't the freebies you get each week worth it alone? 

    One of the best-kept secrets at Daz 3D is that Daz+ Freebies are free to nonmembers with ANY paid purchase of any amount. Fast Grabs even trigger it and you can get both the monthly and current weekly free in the same cart. Like many deals here, the prices only change at checkout. So when they interest me*, I can get them for very little, usually by buying a deeply discounted wishlist item. Yeah, not quite free, but that's made up for because I won't be tempted to buy something only to use up a Daz+ discount code at the end of the month.

    *What? :) You've missed all the "Gee, another ___ model?" posts in the Daz+ forum?

    Holding off on buying anything this morning until this gets some clarification.  Why would Daz not make a mega bundle for this one?

    I do do that too but it's considerably dearer than the membership fee if you grab even only half the "freebies" that way 

    but at the same time my overall yearly spend is a magnitude less as I don't buy lots of unwanted but tempting cheap things

  • I will never understand some of these deals.

    "Buy a new Gen 9 bundle to save money on an old Gen 2 bundle (when the two are not natively interchangeble)" is a weird sale concept.

    I've kind of stopping looking at the 'deals' just more of the same buy x to get x that you probably don't even want
