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

    I thought one of the gifts was a dforce omnishader hair called kenji hair. Am I wrong on that? I recall looking at it thinking I liked that one.

    >kenji hair

    That was a mistake and it was replaced with a character.

    But you are right, actually there were six "gifts".

    When I saw the hair I decided to buy later that day - and when I later just added the 1$-item, I failed to note that it had been swapped out - well :-/
    Anyway, owned, so it was hidden in my list.

    There will be another day for all those items.

    Maybe. It is about 50/50 whether or not the sale will be extended.

    I was thinking further out than that.

  • Unexpected good luck. I finally looked at the Coldwell & the Aliens bundle, even though it's G9 because I do SF and am open to unusual G9 characters. I liked the two G9 aliens and the Amyr Hair/beard (G8/G8.1). So I asked questions in the forums and ended up buying just Arcturian (because not payday yet! Waaah!) and wishlisting the other models, plus a few other things I discovered. I will probably get Sidra and that beard as soon as the Aug Daz+ coupons drop.

    ...while Daz+ members get an extra 1$ off on the Gift Items (2 of which interest me), for the "Summer Still New" items neede to umlock the discount, apparently Daz+ items don't apply. I have the Wild West Churches in the cart which were released on Tuesday (7/23) but didn't get the discount even though the oldest items on the "SSN" sale page were released on the 21st. 

    Ah well.

    I'm done for the month.

    You missed the super-deal. For a while on 7/17, that bundle was $3.99 in a flash sale. I hear it was a store mistake - Probably was, though Daz honored it until the selection changed. Pretty cool bundle.

    Yes, I did read about that, but not while it was still part of the flash sale.  In fact that was what put it on my radar. Since I'm only interested in 3 of the items, I am fine with buying them individually as they go on sale.

    Yep. The DAZ+ items never were 'Debut' new releases; so, of course, they don't qualify as 'Still New' releases.

    The second time I'm letting 8 tokens expire...

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,027

    ...I've had that happen, though the most I lost was 6 (which still represented a 27% discount on PA items).  A few times it was because of Daz going to UTC instead of staying with actual Daz (Utah) time for expiration. Other times there just was wasn't anything interesting, or they couldn't be used with certain deals.

    I don't think so. It appears to me, it is based on what the release date of a product is, if you sort the lists by release date. Not just what the generation is. So the newest stuff like Jon 8.1 and newer gen 9 are 50% off. The mid age gen 9 maybe some relatively recent released gen 8 stuff is 60% off. The oldest gen 9 stuff with most of the gen 8.1 and 8 stuff released around then or before is 70% off.

    i understand your thinking but nowhere does it imply that it would be exclusively one figure per category... and there are literally thousands of Gen 8 for those of us who want them.

    It's kind of a moot point when in order to get the sale (i.e interested in gen8.1 or older) but basically have to buy a gen9 thing to qualify.

    Nah thanks i'm good.

    I think a case of weird wording, eitherway while there was some things in each catagory that held interest, it wasn't really enough to warrant purchasing.

    I let my tokens expire yesterday, it doesn't look like I'm getting them back today, unless a Lightning strikes...

    i actually cobbled together enough vaguely-interesting-at-89/92%-off G8 and G3 stuff from the legacy and classic items to get a new pile of tokens yesterday. The newer stuff was just not cheap enough to buy more than just a single item I was going to get at intro sale prices anyway.

    It looks like Daz changed the banner & the Blowout Sale page. Banner now says, "No additional purchases necessary." The 50%/60%/70% Off promos at the top of the sales page all have wording changed to, "Save an additional 10% off with any 'Blowout' New Release."

    And an item I missed out on during Christmas in July is at an even better price. Hoping the August Daz+ coupons drop early, or this sale gets extended, so I get it for even less!

  • TorquinoxTorquinox Posts: 3,297

    Could be there will be some attractive lightning deals because of the term change. I'm critically low on store credit, no coupons remaining. I didn't expect some of the offers we got. Hmm...

    I did have a 30 item / $40 cart yesterday at 92% off, but the items didn't get my heart pumping and I dumped it, thinking that I can get the same amount of tokens at half the price today and tomorrow.

    I'll probably get a $40 cart tomorrow after 6PM Daztime, incase there is something interesting later this week.

    now the products are all marked with the discount, whereas before they were regular price and the discount applied in the cart, if you had one of today's new releases in there. This saves a bit of cash the current way,  Will use my PA DAZ+ coupon too. I have no tokens. I had 3 items in cart earlier that came to $0.70. 3 LD items for a change, and I grabbed a 70% off Fast Grab item just to top off for a credit card purchase. Came to $1.75 each. I'm good with that price.

    ..,I checked each category after 0:00 DAz Time Monday and the items in first were G9, the second G8.1 and G8, and the last G8.

    A moot point because it is now Tuesday and it's a new sale day.

    If you mean the Blowout, it is still good today. Unfortunately, I'm pretty broke. If August Daz+ coupons are active early (it happens sometimes), I *might* be able to get one thing. If not, I will just be waiting for another (Friday) sale. And finishing up a couple pieces

     coupons likely to refresh tomorrow. even if they refreshed today, I would wait to see what next month brings.
