    Items that cost $1 are not really "gifts" and especially not when they also require an additional purchase. 

     Daz-Marketese is its own unique dialect. Some word meanings have diverged so far from modern English as to be less understandable than Old English to a layperson. LOL

    Reminds me of a former friend who informed me that she wanted to get me a particular birthday gift, but she could only afford half of it, so I needed to come with her to the store to get it and pay the other half.

    Bonus: it wasn't something I wanted. It was something she thought I should have because it offended her sense of style (which was not even vaguely similar to my sense of style) that I did not have one.

    I was, apparently, ungrateful because I declined to spend money on something I didn't want so she could feel good about getting it for me.

    Is daz turn over 3am or 2 am EST? I ask because it says my 18 tokens will expire at 3 am EST. I thought the daz turn over was at 2am, so I am curious if I have an hourf to use my tokens after day and sale change.

    DAZ has a problem with the last hour of its token. They expire one hour earlier then noted - beware. You will NOT be able to keep them to get the new deals in their first hour (or the last of your token livespan), they expire with the turnover even when they say you have one hour left.

    Happened to me once when it hurt, and then I verified it with single tokens on occasion.

    All my tokens normally vanish before I can use them too. Oh well.

    NOT complaining, but once again the wording on the most recent flash sale is mixed up with another coupon habit: It's good for 3 passes! [buy one at a time, buy the 1st choice first just in case]

    Wow! Says once per customer, used twice. Now I also have the chibi paladin. Exquisite workmanship! Nothing I want for a 3rd spin. Can only say, Thanks Daz.

    Should have tried that. I would have taken two at least. Well, next time I am wiser...

    I had a custom message for an extra discount on the Monkey King Bundle. It is gone from the Messages inbox and the code is no longer valid, according to the cart. However, I have the message on an open tab and it says "Expires July 23 @ 23:59 MDT (UTC-6)". Should it not be valid right now and until the end of the day minus one minute?

    Yes it should. Screenshot that open tab and open a customer service ticket with it. (Tip: when I screenshot on my laptop, I hover the cursor over the time in the lower right corner so date and time are visible in the screenshot.)

    Thanks for double checking and for the tips!

    FYI, Ice Zombie is editorial license. I wish it was a cool ice zombie with separate G0T addon instead. Will see what next Thursday brings.

  • Got this in my daz email, says the 1 dollar "gift" is that hair, searched the store for it, can't find it. I'm very interested in that hair, if it's not a 1 dollar "gift" I still want to put it in my whish list. Is there someone who can tell me how to get it? is it not yet released yet? is it coming to the store?

    I think that was some sort of misprint on the emails (common) as the $1 "gift" in the store today has that same picture, but says it's for the character Artemis and goes to this page: https://www.daz3d.com/mw-artemis-for-genesis-9

    From that page, at the bottom it has this: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-kara-ponytail-for-genesis-9 listed as one of the products used in the promos... looks like it's the one you're after.

    Thank you so much for the replyheart, it said something else in the email, the name of the hair, but it looks like that hair.

    There have been mismatches between description and picture in those emails (and on the sale pages) before, where descriptions were VERY clearly not what the pictures were. If you can't find it in the store, it's possible that it's coming out later and was accidentally "teased," so to speak, but it doesn't look like that hair (whatever it is) goes with the picture.

    I just noticed that Editorial License products have the normal Interactive and 3D Printing licenses to buy. Does this mean that if someone paid for that license it would override the Ed. License? Or if not, shouldn't the Shopping Cart clearly indicate that even if you buy them, you still can't use the products except by Ed. License guidelines? Wouldn't it be better to leave those options off the Shopping List?

    Just curious. I have never bought one of the licenses, so no clue how it is normally used by others.

    I am not seeing that - do you have Daz Deals? There should not be any commercial licnse add-ons for editorial items, and if there were they would not be applicable.

    I tried adding to cart in an Incognito browser window (no sign-in, no Daz Deals) and I get the licence offered too.

    Ah, I was looking at the product page. Yes, that is happeneing for me - the in-cart behaviour is almost certainly a bug, I will report it.

    Thank you Richard. I just got back on the site, working on 'Lost and Found' since Customer Service had me sign in and request an update. Yes, I have DAZ Deals Pro. I just looked at my Shopping Cart and the license area is fixed. Appreciate you looking into this.

    $1 "Gift" for today would be attractive to me without the buy-in - I like lab facilities, They're inherently creepy, especially along with medical facilities. They scream "unholy experiment." I now have several of both, so I shouldn't need any more, but kitbashing. I suppose all the $1 gifts would be a lot more interesting without the buy-in. Of course, paying for a gift makes it not a gift, but that idea has already been discussed. For me, I would pay the $1 for some of the items if not for the buy-in. As it is, the only really good part of this whole Christmas in July promo was the flash sale. Oh well. Always another sale...

    I agree, but I would have acted if it had been buy any new release over 1$ including the new daz+ items. There are new daz+ items I would have been willing to buy without tokens to get the 1$ deal, but a bunch of the new release qualifying items I don't like or are too expensive to make the 1$ item worth it.

    Yeah, this one's been a strike out for me (including the flash sale -- didn't need any of those bundles). But the first half of the month was really good to me for once, so it was hard to be to cranky over it.

    All five recent "gifts" are now up for $2 each. You still have to buy in to get them, but only once.
