Has anyone else noticed that items they've already purchased still show up for sale in the daily bundles and can be purchased multiple times?(!) I already bought the granite bedroom, for example, but the site cheerfully allows me to buy it again. Same SKU, etc. I know it's not for high proced items, but still, I wonder how many items I've bought multiple times now.

There should be a download arrow at the bottom right (on the BYOB and general store pages), and a 'Purchased' sign over the 'Add to Cart' button on the product page.Are you not seeing those?
We can hide the ones we already own from the sale pages [not on the banner]. Both on the sale pages and on the banner, the blue Purchased label is there.
Yes we can, always could, buy stuff as many times as so desired. On the rare occasion this has been a good thing. [i.e. when one has otherwise purchased all the sale trigger items and really wants to trigger that sale].
Having bought literally thousands of items in the Daz store, I am aware of what is supposed to happen. :-). No it does not say purchased, it allows me to add it to the cart. Right now the product is in my cart and also in my purchase history. (see screencaps.). Something is obviously broken. I was just wondering if anybody else had noticed this.
Wow, no that needs a ticket to CS.
I have had some cases where I thought something looked too familiar -- only to find that it was a similar product with a slightly different name. The store didn't use to allow that but obviously times have changed.
Not for me, except when included in prepackaged bundles. The "add to cart" button has always been replaced by a "purchased" red indicator that does not allow me to add it to the cart to buy it again if I already own it. Last year when I purchased something in a build a bundle special, it definitely no longer showed up on that list.
I found that one can click on the purchased button and buy things a 2nd time that way. However, that was a very RARE situation in which I wanted to.
I agree, except I have no idea which of the items I've purchased in this last two weeks I already owned, because it only shows you the most recent time you made a purchase, so I can't go back through my list and say hey I already owned this and I bought it twice (or more!). I'm just gonna have to ignore those Build a bundle specials.
That is the one annoying thing I find with the Product List - yes, a newer purchase [often caused by coming in bundles for eg.] overrides the previous Order number.
One has to find and catch those previous order numbers before making the 2nd purchase. [again this would be for a rare situation, I can recall one time.]
Being one of the people who have, through some circumstances, more than one old account here ... I have a list of what is in each account and I try to remember to check that list before making any purchases aside from new releases.
Providing the actual Order pages haven't gone AWOL, one can spend a lot of time going through them to look for the original purchase information. That can be easy if one [foolishly] purchased an item for say $3,999.98.
Yeah. I just can't personally see justifying the time for these build a bundles where I have to go investigate every item to see whether I've already purchased it yet or not lol (rolls eyes)
No, not for .37cents ;-)
for a while the big character bundles would show what you owned and even adjust the bundles down
but it the last couple of weeks I got the mouse king bundle and king did not show up as previously purchased nor did the backpack in the teen jane bundle as I recall.
