  • The coupon seems to be working now, but not stacking with my PC+ membership discount is ridiculous and definitely not worth it.

    It still isn't working for me.

    My mistake. I forgot to re-add the new release.

    I'm getting rather unhappy with these coupons lately that never add up properly with the PC+ discount. Why are we being sort of punished for being PC+? I do understand if you want to exclude PC+ items seeing as they are so inexpensive anyway, but then just don't include them, right? And any new discount should definitely stack with the PC+ 30% off on DOs in my opinion. It always did so before, so why is this policy suddenly being changed? And shouldn't we have been notified about this beforehand? It just feels unfair to me. This way, the current sales make even less sense. *rant off*

     

    This isn't new as such - when PC items have been included in a really big discount category they have often been excluded as far as the PC price goes anyway, and it's quite possible that other sales will apply to the PC price in future. They were included here for the benefit of non-members, members are getting a better deal year-round.

     Having the 70% not working from a PC+ item price might be neglectable, but having it the 30% discount the PC+ membership offers for all DAZ Original items makes it tasting utterly sh**** for me.

    Adding to that, even the PC+ coupons can be used for this "deal", as it comes with it's own code... so not really advertising for a re-buy of my one year PC+ membership next year...

    "Sales" like this are getting more and more common here... which leads to me buying less and less stuff here.

    Like I said, I do understand PC+ items being excluded, but I'd much prefer they make a separate category for non-PC-members then, if they want to give discounts on the PC+ items. Because it's really disappointing otherwise, especially if all your wishlist items in the sale are PC+. But that's a minor point, really. The main issue, like maikdecker says, is the initial 30% discount or whatever an item currently has for PC+ members. We're not getting this discount for free, we pay for it with the membership, right? So why take it away and give us effectively less of a discount than non-PC+-members? THAT feels unfair to me.

    I do wonder why a PC+ member would be interested in the CELEBRATE70 coupon at all. It represents a discount of just 58% (since the PC+ discount does not work). For a DO 58% is nothing special compared to promotions we have had in the past, and you have to buy a new release to trigger it. It is the same reason I tend to ignore DOs when they show up in flash grab.

    Stacking discounts have become largely a feature of the past since the new store software.

    That's the same reason why I don't get DO's from Fast Grab. Not really that good a deal.

    Just now (7:30AM) I got a 20% Bonnie coupon. Last night when I made my purchase at 1:55AM, I didn't. I'm sure it'll be gone in an hour and a half when the store changes over, so effectively, I'll have had that coupon for about 7 hours, most of which time I'll have been asleep. Sorry, but Daz really needs to improve and do better for the European customers, and not run all those things almost exclusively during US evening times.

    Copied from messages. "Coupon Code is usable once per customer and must be used by Monday, Sept. 20"

     

    My coupon message says: Coupon Code is usable once per customer. Discount expires Sunday 23:59 (UTC -6 MDT)

    Coupon shows no date.  This Sunday is the 19th.

     

    EDIT: False alarm, it DOES need to be used by SUNDAY the 19th as it expires on Monday 12:00 am.  USER BEWARE!!!!!

    "Select Daz Original Original Animation Items"

    What about the Select Daz Fake Original Animation Items?

    "Buy the Alex Capital 8.1 Goon Getaway Bundle
    and the Alex Capital 8.1 Stool Pigeon Bundle
    along with 3+ Alex Capital 8.1 Add-Ons
    to get an EXTRA 10% OFF* both Bundles"

    Well, that's not going to work. One addon is the HD addon, which is included in both bundles, so why should I buy it a third time? There are the textures. That's one. And I already have the rest of the addons, which are surprisingly old items, not new ones.

  • This. Whole thing seems rushed together and overpriced.

    Well will be interesting to see if DAZ is coming up with any interesting offers over the weekend. Could even be that I won't be using my 20% Bonnie coupon at all. Would be a first for me.

    The textures are listed as being in the bundle on the sales page, but they're not listed on the product pages themselves. So whether they're in there is another mystery.

    And if I buy both bundles, I buy a third of both bundles twice. Shouldn't there be a bigger discount for buying both at the same time, if a third of the items is exactly the same?

    Yeah, I thought the coupon wordings changed a bit. (maybe because the wordings of another coupon confused users) The expiry did not change though. Thanks for bringing this up to alert other users.

    Ha, I was a little bit amused to see so many old items (which I own) listed as add-on, and that makes buying the bundles an instant hard pass.

    With the added insult that they were all available at a cheaper price a week ago.

  • Add-ons deal doesn't make any sense to me. HD-Add-on which is in the bundles and old stuff I already own.

  • WonderlandWonderland Posts: 7,040

    It makes no sense to have the character and HD in both bundles, then have the HD AGAIN as an addon.

  • It could make sense if you only want to buy the character and the HD.

    That doesn't give you an additional discount, though.  If you want the iscount, you buy the bundles, and need 3 addons. One of which you already have twice from the two bundles, so you're not going to buy that a third time. Most of the rest some people already have. That leaves with one single addon. You can't make three out of one available addon.

    Nods..just trying to look at it from a different shopping angle.

  • I do like the character. But the rest of both bundles is ... meh. And forget about the add-ons.  So no bundle for me, and the character (as he is 8.1) will have to wait a long time. I'm not into the 8.1 Generation yet. Perhaps I would have bought the clothing- but it has the same problem all male dForce clothing seems to have. It looks and behaves like thin plastic sheets.

    Thje add-on selection and the discount for buying bundles and add-ons together have been updated (please open a ticket if you purchased already and want to make adjustments).

    The PA Sales promo page has been updated to fix the Stool Pigeon bundle contents.

    Well, I'm confused.

    Can you tell us what's been changed?  Because I am only seeing the HD that I get in a bundle, the textures, and a bunch of old stuff I own in the addons.  And I don't see any comment about 'buy or own', which might help.

  • There's 3 old items that were not there previously, not that it changes anything. Tried it out of curiousity, though life poses doesn't even work, didn't check the other 2 since I already have them.

  • LeticiaLeticia Posts: 126

    Yeah, if they don't figure out a way to give a 'buy both bundles' discount that's meaningful, I'm going to dump my cart this afternoon, because I don't see a point in buying two teeny tiny bundles that have about a 50% value overlap without a heck of a discount.  Since the figure and the HD are definitely the most expensive items in those bundles.

    That'll give me something to pick up the next time they offer genesis 8 bundles on fire sale anyhow.
