    Do tokens carry over? I'm short 10 cents for a token. Do I need to buy something cheap I don't want or will those carry over to tomorrow?

    No, anything paid above the 10 dollar mark doesn't carry over to the next transaction (or to the next day) if that's what you're asking about. Any tokens actually gained are valid until the end of Sunday, Daz time.

    OK, thanks. Playing cart Jenga trying to get as close to the exact number of tokens without going over. Shopping here is taking way too long, balancing everything out. Makes we want to just dump the whole cart.

    I can relate. I dumped carts for smaller reasons. I also stopped caring about the coupons as they expire too quickly for someone like me who spends usually smaller amounts in the store (sure, those sums add up, but before they do, tokens expire, or there's nothing exciting to get with them).

    ...bugger, clicked on the thread, was auto logged off.  After I signed back in clicked on the thread again it acted like I had already read the 40 posts I hadn't seen yet and took me to the last post in the thread. So now I have to page around to find where I last left off.

    Brainless software.

    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? 

    even at full price.  

    ...unless they start giving away  g9 items.as the freebies

    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.

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

    ....Paypal can require Daz to rename a product in the store here? 

    Wow.

    Wow.

    Not exactly, it’s just that purchases including items with names using specific words PayPal bans (like, anything that could be remotely associated with Cuba) won't be accepted by PayPal, and the easiest way to avoid that is to rename that item.

    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? 

    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 guess it depends on people's reasons.  I buy very few daz + items.  I care more about the 30% extra off on Daz originals when I want something more expensive.  That alone makes up the membership fee I think without coupons or freebies if you buy  a few of the core characters in a year.

    And here, yesterday it changed an hour late, have their servers changed to non-DST?

    I find it a bit [annpying] that sales that triggers if you buy a specific bundle do not include if you own the bundle, just when you buy it. For me it means I'm locked out of todays deals  because I bought the bundle yesterday. I understand if it triggers on buying new releases or something, but when it triggers on a specifik item it's really [frustrating] if you already own it.

    The main buy-with offers are the same as yesterday, as far as I can see, and the key item discount should work for owners as well as new buyers.

    The Amazing and Contemporary Daz Originals sales are the same as yesterday, but yesterday I didn't have time to go through them. I wanted the Xiu Lin 9 Bundle though and bought that. Today I have the tiime to go through them, but I've already bought the bundle so I won't get any discount, and I'm locked out from the discount.

    All I can suggest is opening a support ticket to see if Sales can help you.

    Instead of making Havana Street inactive, why not sell it with the caveat that PayPal is not accepted (or that PayPal is excepted)?

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,198

    ...that would make more sense than forcing the creator to change the name.

    Oh, Richard. You can't even censor a single word without making a typo.

    Since my wishlist is empty and I have zero interest in investing in Genesis 9, it could be a very long time before I buy anything else here. That could change if someone releases some new shaders I love or some fantastic utility my workflow can't live without.

    A $1 giftcard for yourself will also make DAZ+ freebies go free for non-members.

    Oh yes, thanks! 

    I probably will be grabbing at least a quarterly membership in the next month or so, but budget has been extra tight this year.

    In other news I picked up a few things in the $1.99 flash sale yesterday. One of them was the Misae G8F character. I had just put her in my wishlist the a few days ago after someone mentioned her in the forums. I can't recall who or in which thread but if you read this, thanks! I did a couple quick renders earlier tonight & I really like her. I've been trying to find a character like this for a while. I don't know how I missed it.

    Today was a great sale. I only have 24 items left in my wishlist. I have yet to get the free items and the Easter items at 80% off. But other than that I am done. I have 39 tokens left. Tokens I cannot transfer/gift to anybody else, which sucks. Considering the Tokens die a lonely death on Sunday, wouldn't it be nice, if on Sundays, we could gift them or a limited amount of them to other shoppers?

    That would be the day ArtAngel! I still have 386 items in my wishlisht but cannot afford to get them at higher prices. It's 80 or 90% off for me unless it's a high in demand item. I also cannot afford DAZ+ atm so (I think) these tokens would come in handy. I doubt I would be on your gift list but the thought alone of wanting to share this with others is amazing!

  • SnowSnow Posts: 95

    Actually it's even worse because I currently have a few items listed at 80%. The items I shop for these days are 1.99 to 3.99. I am willing to spend more if it's high on my list.
