Is Platinum Club Plus still worth it in 2021?

Memberships are on sale today, but I have so so many questions! Do you have to be a frequent buyer for PC+ to pay for itself? Am I better off just waiting for regular discounts and sales to roll around? Do you find the free items to be useful/worth your while?

    I use a browser plugin called "Daz Deals". it lists the costs of my content on my orders page.

    I've been a PC+ member for the whole time I've been a customer here(years)

    this is what it says currently

    Full Price Value: $95,700.00

    Current Value: $55,605.83

    Total Spent: $10,284.85

    Full Price=Non-PC+ Member

    Current Price=Non-Member+discounts

    Total Spent=What I actually paid for all of it as a PC+ member

    Yes, the freebies are worth it from time to time.

    No, not all of them are the best money can buy.Sometimes they are simple.

    Several times over the years PC+ members got full Pro bundles for free along with other stuff.

    I can't imagine I would ever want to stop being a PC+  member if I continue to use Daz Studio.

    Thanks for the info!

    I figured that it was a whopping $3.50 USD a  month at the current price, so I took the plunge! Will report back with my impressions (hopefully good!)

    An 89% save rate (over MSRP) is quite impressive! 

    EDIT: Oh my, this could be dangerous to my bank balance! So many deals...

    I feel it really does depend on your buying habits and definately benefits new users more than older users so that they can build their library faster. I have been here for quite a while and have been in and out of the PC+ many times thru that time. Currently out of it because my spending is allocated for other things at the moment

    Whats even more dangerous to your bank account are gift cards. You can get a ton of free product purchasing a high dollar, high percentage GC, but having it makes you spend it much faster than normal currency.

    There is a DAZaholics support thread on the PC forum. You may find that helpful. 

    Cheers,

    Do they have those membership sales more often? I was away when they did the sale, so I missed it... $70 is a tad too steep for a starter like me, but at $50 or below, I'd consider it!

    I tried responding with a quote, but when I then press 'Post Comment', nothing seems to happen, so I am posting without the quote...

     

    I was just a few days late for the membership sale... Are they on sale more often? $70 is a bit steeper for a fresh starter like me, who doesn't know yet whether he'll keep doing this, but for under $45 I'd be willing to take that risk...
