    If they have an "everything is back" catch up, i'll look. I've ignored it after the first set, when I bought only one new and the cheap character (which made my total cart lower than just the new one by itself).

    Yep, it looks like they are doing a "catchup" for the last few hours of the sale

    Now I can shop... 

    I hadn't bought anything as my pension is due to hit my bank account this evening. Now have a substantial cart waiting for that to happen and clearing a considerable portion of my wishlist :)

     

    Edit: $170NZ later I am broke but happy :)

  • I did get a bunch of Luthbel items that I've never seen go that cheap before.

    Catchup ? Oh that's great and all while I was asleep (europe) 

    I was willing to spend some more but only after getting the item I wanted first (Classic Bob Hair)

    To me the biggest change every three hours were the OOT hairs because they rarely go on sale for more then 50 or 60% (as far as I can remember)

    Big let down again in the end, always something here that makes me want to quit shopping altogether.

    In europe as well, woke up at 6PM DAZ time and spent some 2.5 hours going through the catchup before leaving for work at 6AM my time.
    Got the Bluejaunte characters that I missed before but ran out of credit getting them the perfect companion... Sorry Larry, you just have to wait a little longer...

    Seems like "Elathlaen Hair for Genesis 9" is a dForce cloth hair, according to the description. While that might be good news for the rest of y'all, it's not for me. (For some reason, my laptop hates simulating cloth hairs but not clothes or SBH. Perhaps it's because of the layering I'm cloth hair, so this hair seems useless to me.)

    I installed a new Orbi modem/router yesterday and between it and Xfinity, have only had internet courtesy of my phone's cellular data. Hoping the tech who is coming later today will be able to figure out what is not working between all our computers and it. 

    Saved a lot of money not buying at DAZ Store. Which is good, since that Orbi cost me $489.00 after taxes.

    I see a new release over $1 gets one CB Anhe HD for $2, plus 60% off an item from a selection of interesting stuff.  Of course, I already bought it over the weekend for $3.50, which gets me nothing today... angry

    Yeah I wonder why are they so desparate with that figure....

    You can buy her again

    I considered it, but I'd have to spend about $5.50 to get 60% off an item that is likely to go on sale at some point for 60% off...

  • Hello, a bit off topic but has anyone else noticed as of late Daz not having the regular deep discount sales for premium members?

    I used to wait till items in my wish list were showing at least 40% off but now I just get the standard 30%.

    Am I better off just picking them up now before that discount goes away?

    What do you mean? Membership prices, or discount for members? The latter tends to increase only for special events, notably the PC anniversary in October(ish) - which did happen last year.

    "60% off" isn't the same as "Extra 60% off" 

    The Girl 8 Pro Bundle is at 72% discount now, which takes the price from $134.95 to $37.79, the EXTRA 60% off takes it down to $15.12, which adds to total 89% off. And there are also other bundles that have the same 72% off base discount (for DAZ+ members)

    The cheapest new release is $2.49 (Parasite poses) + $1.40 for the CB Anhe comes to $3.89 buy-in to get $22.67 additional discount on something one may want.

  • TomhipTomhip Posts: 382

    I put extra copy of Ahne and few different Bundles in basket and I get no extra 60% discount whatsoever... but tbh this "buy dupes" approach just smells bad to me. Sure I did it for The Sleight bundle sale but that was much better deal.

    How do you put an 'extra' Ahne in the basket?  I have no option for that... only PURCHASED.

    Click the PURCHASED button.

  • LeanaLeana Posts: 11,743

    If you click on the "purchased" button it will add it to your cart.

  • Llola LaneLlola Lane Posts: 9,345

    ok... thanks.. never thought to click the PURCHASED button... lol.  DONE... but still seems a shame to have to pay for her twice to get a discount on other stuff.  I think I'll pass :(

  • mtl1mtl1 Posts: 1,507

    Yeah, like I mentioned in the sales issues thread, is this the intended effect of the sale? That we'd have to re-purchase in order to get the 60% discount? If so, that's kind of silly to be honest.

  • tsroemitsroemi Posts: 2,755

    You could maybe use the SUPERFIVE coupon if you have that, it will pay for the 'double Ahne' with a little to spare for the necessary new item. Just make sure that you put the item from the Extra 60% off category first - then the coupon - then Ahne and then the new item, that worked real well for me.

    Apart from this, I do think it's a shame also, that you get punished like this for buying stuff when they virtually beg you to.

    But those aren't things I want; the ones I wanted I got for $10 last month... wink

    i did exaactly that. Had bought Anhe 9 for 3.50 the other day. Today I bought a DAZ+ item for 3.49 which covered the deal to get Anhe 9 for $2.00. Put her in the cart. The added my DAZ Dealz item which was listed at $53.95. Then applied my DAZ+ coupon. It all came to 3.49+ !.03 for Anhe 9 which made her total at 4.53.(bought twice)... then my chosen item went from 53.95 all the way down to 15. Still a real great deal and I don;t have to mess with a ticket trying to get the 60% off.

  • Anybody else getting the wheel of death on one of today's DAZ+ weekly featured items?  The Pit Lane Garage set is clear, but the other is just a black rectangle with the 'loading' thing ever-spinning.

    The same, had to look at the email to see, which item it was. 

  • PerttiAPerttiA Posts: 10,024

    Also when downloading (manually) yesterdays catch, the anatomical elements (G8F/M) were also giving the wheel of death. Not a big problem for me, but can be if someone didn't have them already.
