I noticed the signature from Nath right now "Buying content and using it are separate hobbies" This is so true! The creativity of some users here is sometimes really hilariously funny!
Confirming the error with Eclipse White Room. Two different stock prices are showing. See attached. Note the difference in greyed out prices. $18.95 vs $12.95.
This was noticed yesterday, the $18.95 base price on the product page is correct, the price on the promo page and in the catalogue pages is wrong (I guess a caching issue).
Understood. I was replying to Ati's comment on the previous page and Chris' attempt to confirm the appearance.
The sentiment is not originally mine - but it is very true even so...
I swear when I had it in my cart early yesterday morning it was less than seven bucks, then later in the day both the bundle and the White Room went up in price.
No matter, I used the coupon on today's bundle instead. Didn't get quite the deal that Blurst managed, but then again, I didn't buy the Michael 8.1 bundles. Still, nice price!
The White room for Eclipse has been set back to $12.95 base. If you paid when it was at a h9gher base price you can contact support, though I beleive Daz is going to check through the purchase list itself.
Huh. I think DAZ just pulled every single ad off facebook?
what makes you say that?
Well ... I just took a look, and they are gone from their ad page. What does this mean? There could be many a guess., both positive and negative, so I shall not spend much time on this. My hope would be a new round of ads coming.
I sometimes check the FB Ad library to hunt for coupons. I know for sure that last Wednesday, DAZ still had several ads running. I don't remember whether I checked between then and today... I think I did but I'm not sure. In any case, today all their ads are gone.
Interesting.
Missed chance with todays "Shark on land" promo IMO. Give me a nice bundle with those 5 shark items and we are talking. Would prefer this over many of last original bundles. Or an additional discount on Raws older stuff (not that I do not already own most of it). As it is Jaws goes into the cart - together with some new PFAD - and the rest on the wishlist.
Looks like Pricing for that Product is not easy to set. There is still something wrong if you compare Main Page, Sales Page and Product Page. See the Screenshots. One says -53% the other -30% but same sales price of $9.07
Try clearing cache. I just tried two different devices and see only 30% on the front store page, the What's Hot, the promo page and the product page.
My store appears to be on 50% off - not sure which sale it's in (doesn't seem advertised) but yay - link in my sig if interested.

The individual items are by different PAs. It could be that they didn't ask for a bundle.

Daz is a brokerage, not the boss. PAs own their products and get a say in these things, which I think is fair. Daz will step in if they feel a product has completely the wrong price, but generally, they work with us. There is an additional discount for buying more than one product today - that could count as a bundle discount.
I'm only speculating as I don't know the actual reason in this case.
Now that WOULD be handy. Part of the problem has been changing standards over the years, the addition of Iray to Studio, and other things. Customers also disagree over whether that standard should include a vanity folder (e.g. Environments\PA Name\Product Name; or Environments\Sci-fi\Product Name; or a combo).
I'd love a clear structure going forward (but older products would still be all over the place).
Vanity folders with Vendor names should be a must. I really like Zeddicuss products but having folders all over the place is really giving me a hard time. Not to mention all the typos on products from all different vendors.
And that's one reason there's not consistent folder structure. I always take things out of the vanity folder so i can find them more quickly. No way can i remember who makes what.
I was in no way implying PAs shouldn't be strongly listened to. The relationship between them and Daz is super important. But to me the buck always stops with Daz as to what is in their store and how it is presented. Consistency is just so important in having an open and clear relationship with your customers. So things like bundles should have a consistency, naming conventions should be consistent, the way sales operate, etc.
Absolutely no. I hate Vanity folders, I always take them out and rename them to the actual product name.
If I have a heap of stuff by one particular vendor that I use a LOT, then I amend the folder names with their initials..IE, OOT Marlene Hair, or AS Groovy Outfit, or BKC Toiboi Boots etc. But that is very rare.
OK so there are apparently different needs. For me vanity folders are the only way not to completely drown in content. If i would have i.e. all clothing items directly in people/genesis 8 female/clothing navigating the content library would nearly become impossible. I mainly use smart content nowadays anyway but every now and then one must directly go into the library as the structure of a product is not always easy to understand with smart content.
On an PC which I have never used for the DAZ Website. Chrome, after Clearing Cache. Not logged in. Still wrong? (NS: the whole thing is no problem for me. But maybe confusing for other users).
That's why I gave up on Smart Content. As much as I loved the visual side of it, there are just way too many errors, and as you said, some products need to be applied in a particular order (for instance, there's a stockings product for Genesis 8 where the designs etc have to be applied in a particular order) and Smart Content completely loses that and it becomes very confusing. I stuck with Smart Content for over a year, and finally, there was one too many "lost and found", one too many material that I couldn't work out whether it was iray or 3delight (no little icon on the image), and one too many complete and utter mis-categorisation for me to continue fighting with it. I went back to the Content Library, where I can rename folders to something that makes more sense.
I made comments about the folder/Library structure and the way morphs were handled and I was rather rudely told that if I didn't like it to go use Poser
