Didn't anyone notice? The PA sale started

davesodaveso Posts: 7,014

usually a lot of chatter about this, but nothing? The Xevo headliner deal is pretty darn good, if you typically use G9 or not.  If you're not overall using G9, its still good. You can use it on the free G9 figures with free G9 essentials. 
PA items coming ut as 80% off ... and I've already read some people getting into 90% off range with tokens, etc. applied.

    I saw this last night but waited until today to hopefully get all the bugs worked out. I have Zev0's Breast Control for G9 in my cart and it comes out to 6.87, can I get this lower by adding something else in or is the lowest price I can manage?

    Also, I guess my no buying strike ends with this hahah.

    true that. I forgot...and would you believe it, my current system didn't boot correctly this morning. Had to restart 3 times, with the last had to hard shut down, pull the power, and then restart. That did the trick. Some component in there hung up for some reason or another. 

    But how do you ignore such pricing? I need better will power.  But 80% off or more? wow ... blush

    Keep your eye on the lightning deals for when the discounted stuff falls in there.

    I have a cart I have been jumbling for hours

    I removed wishlist items under $2 and now am thinking do I really need them wishlisted if even that price doesn't tempt me?

    I did the opposite, removed the ones over $2

    none of my wishist items are even near $2. I did notice in the 65& off category, there are also items that are 75% off. Those end up 86% off for me. Not on wishlist but I always have a ton of stuff I have been interested in since release, so when it gets reasonably priced or better, I often pick them up.  

    There's nothing in the new or still new that interests me today though.

    LOL these are 92% off and I am second guessing 

    they quickly add up

    mostly old things I have free textures for so plonked them in my wishlist

    Nope, after a couple of big buy days in recent days, I am resisting temptation. Just enough spent to get the new "golden ticket" item and enough attractively priced older stuff to inch past $10 (and 2 tokens). 

    I'm finding that I'm running out of stuff I need/want, even at 90% or more off.

    I had plans to hold off until payday 1 September. But yeah Zev0, Aging Face went right into the cart, then I looked at the blurb and the price. Found two of the Sexy Skinz items for G9 I have wanted and needed a couple times, the Hot Dog Cart I have wanted because it is just so cool, well made, and I can fill up a New York street with it, and an FE hair add-on for the main hair I was able to pick-up on sale the other week. And used my 6 tokens.

    My thanks to the PAs who put their work up for this deep discount.

    Like the DAZ+ sale, this sale and others, I rarely play the game, but if I like (and need) something, I will get it maybe. If it sings to me, it will fly into my cart.

    There is always another sale.

     I have that Hot cart and it is modelled really well, but it is pre iray.  it renders great in 3DL but there's a bit of work to make it iray ready. Just fyi info for you

    Yep, I saw that it was Beta Iray and then there were issues. I can deal. That model is a work of art. It would be wonderful if the PA Hole could try again to do the Iray mats, but regardless, I have bought a lot of 3DL props simply because I love the work someone put into them. And I joined DAZ after Iray had been out for about a year, so it is my default.

    Ditto here... WHY did I take the free textures if I don't even have the item???  ughh... those $2.00 items DO add up... even at 90percent off.  I flew through my gift certificate money.  I won't buy without another GC sale.

    There's a free Iray preset here; I don't know if you were aware. 

  • PerttiAPerttiA Posts: 10,024

    Managed to keep it at $40 for 30 items, but another round is about to start soon...

    I would like to point out the wonderful promos prepared for us by @ChanglingChick for her new character(s?) https://www.daz3d.com/cc-jynksie-for-genesis-9 where you essentially get four in one, along with the expected makeups, but also a full range of expressions, shown on both the female and male versions. And the where on some promos you might get a single shot of a male version or a single line of what's included, here there is an equal set of male promos for what she is highlighting in each grouping of renders, in addition to the two versions of female skins. Thirty-five promos besides the main one, think how many were done that we will never see because they didn't meet her standards.

    Thank you so much for noticing :D  For the 36 promos you see, it was 262 renders total (including preset thumbnails that are inset). Without those, it's 150 renders.

    The only reason I didn't grab a bunch of my $2-4 Wishlisted items, is that as usual Daz starts these major sales when I am practically broke. (Remind me to post about our truck in the Complaints thread.) I did pick up the G8 Growing Up bundle for under $6 yesterday morning, since I use the G3 fairly often, but that will probably be it until Friday. I hope the Monday &/or Tuesday PAs are still featured then or I may have to splurge on catchup, since some of them are favorites.

    well I tossed all those WL items out and removed them from my wishlist as the free textures are a suck cost fallacy (not a typo)

    not one of them were items I would ever use free texture not withstanding

    Your logic actually won me over - in reverse!  I decided that of I don't buy some of these older PA-owned products for less that $2, I never will.  So I picked up a couple of dozen wishlisted items in the past two days.  With the banner and the tokens, they were 86-90% off.

    So thanks Wendy - I think?
