    ok just curious in my lightning deals is Josie 9Mega Bundle and says it is inactive has something been removed for some reason or are some of the content being reclasified to Editorial License 

    Can't say for sure, though it appears Josie 9 bundles are now https://www.daz3d.com/josie-9-character-bundle and https://www.daz3d.com/josie-9-add-on-bundle . No idea how many items the megabundle had.

    maybe those two combined maybe with something extra? some of the really really old products think Aiko 3 was one had multible bundles and you really had to pay close attention because some of them were pretty much exactly the same just different names

    16 products (links should go to their respective wiki pages):

    Edit : Looking at my wishlist, my guess is that all older bundles related to characters who now have Character and Addon bundles are inactive. They were for a time when the Character and Addon bundles were added and Daz made them active again. I suppose they think people who wanted to get the old versions had the time to do so and decided to remove them again.

    I need a good giftcard sale or I wont be buying in March Madness - today is not a good sale... there is zero items I am interested in and I can't afford $400 even if there were. :-(

  • Hmm, a bundle today.  A surprise to be sure, but a welcomed one.  I might save my free bundle coupon until next week in case we get a themed bundle.  She has a nice look, and I like that hair, and the outfit.

  • WonderlandWonderland Posts: 7,046

    I used to buy a lot of mega bundles on release because there were so many incentives with lots of other free bundles or items. Since Premiere started, as I'm Daz+, there has been no incentive to buy character bundles and I've only purchased one and it was on sale for like $2.00. I'm glad I didn't give up my existing Daz+ for Premiere because spending $19 a month for a free character bundle that I can pick up later for a couple of dollars isn't worth it. My Daz+ expires at the end of April and I have to see if it will be worth it to join Premier during March Madness, wait until my Daz+ expires, or just wait till the next big sale to join and go to base and basically put my shopping here on hold until enough new content goes on super sale. This has been becoming more of a hobby of collecting content than a job of creating art/content myself lately...

    I have a question, maybe it's dumb. I am a Poser user, and I also have DAZ, but at the moment I only use it to export XD. If I subscribe to Premier for a month during March Madness (for example), the Bundle Coupon is for getting a G9 Bundle, right? Is it my own bundle then, or only as long as I am a Premier member? What about the free items?

    "This has been becoming more of a hobby of collecting content than a job of creating art/content myself lately..."

    oh I can feel this too XD like an addiction sometimes.

    If you get a free bundle with the coupon, it's yours even after unsubscribing from Premier.  You would only lose a Premier-only addon character, like if you got Elena 9's bundle, you keep her, but not Eden.

    Yep. I could use a good gift card sale before March Madness; but this one isn't it. The buyin requirements are way too high for me to take advantage of it.

    Man that Giftcard sale is juicy! I was thinking about getting three of them!

    Flash Sale right now, says only 4 hours but not sure exactly when it began.  You can get 1 item off at 50%, 2 at 60% and 3 at 65% off with the Store-Pick-3 coupon.  It says limit 1 coupon per person.

    It also stacks with tokens, and it's a big selection that includes G9 and G8 things, a lot of bundles, too, so definitely check it out!

    Getting three at 25% would certainly maximize value.

    A $400 card with buy-ins, Premiere and tokens is still around 20% off. But quite spendy. Not sure how hard to commit with things like maximum discount bases popping up lately.

    Yeah, even on top of the fact that I don't have Premier or tokens, and none of the new releases were anything that interested me... no way do I trust the Daz marketing strategy enough to just hand them money at this point. Especially not that much. 

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,252

    ...pretty much waiting on MM though I do have to use my Daz+ PA coupon by next Friday. 

    Hoping there is something good this weekend. as most of the week has been  rather "meh" save for the release of the Notre Dame Organ.

    It's been at 4 hours since early this morning, so who knows what the DAZ staff is thinking.  The main problems are is that the selection has seemed to change slightly, but the code has never been updated with a new one, so if you bought early in the day you got hosed out of the rest of the day.  Not well thought out at all, but that's rather typical these days.

    Tonight's sale is why I always keep a gift card in my wishlist. Thanks Daz!

  • WIshlist sale for today isn't bad at all.  The "Heart's Desire" selection is okay-I like the Cargo Hazen House (to name just one).  You can still use tokens but it has a minimum price of $1.  I'm really curious as to who could participate in this sale, add Wishlist items, and get it below $1?  

  • TomhipTomhip Posts: 457

    I dont really like any of the New items for buy-in. Now the Wishlist plus Hearts Desire combo is good, but the items in current selection aren'tthat  amazing either. 

    Maybe when they reroll or maybe tomorrow they will add some New item that interests me.

    Thats the problem with  'buy in' the sale might be tempting, but when there's only about 10 items, and most of them are linked in someway (or almost all gen9) you can so easily be out of the game before it even starts

    Indeed, that tends to be the case a lot recently.  The outfits or hair that we have with these new releases should be made to be compatible with both 9 and 8 so more people will buy them.  While the selection might be limited, there are other things that aren't directly G9 like environments and shaders.  But, of course, that means you need to like those to encourage you to buy them.

    Normally I'm happy to see WL sales, but most of the items in my WL reverted to full price. Fifty percent off of full price along with the buy-in isn't such a good deal for me.

    I feel a little bit ill that it never occurred to me that one could do that.

    Don't feel bad. I've also grown accustomed to having GCs in my wishlist, just in case, and while I had one wishlisted and I've built a small cart with the required buy-ins, I'm not getting the extra 50% off for the gift card, meaning that gift cards were not supposed to be included in the sale from the beginning, most likely, and Daz has now fixed that. Still, would've been nice if Daz had included gift cards as items out of the sale in the fine print from the very beginning.

    ...same here, and having to purchase a 13$ or 15$ item (I have little interest in) as a buy in for the extra 50% doesn't cut it.

    i was really hoping for something a bit better so I could use my Daz+ PA coupon before month's end as the weekday sales have been pretty "meh". 

    Really hoping MM isn't like this..

    Same. It used to be that the second half of the month would treat me well even if the first half was lackluster. So far not this month, but there's a week left yet.

    ...I wonder if they weill start MM a week early.

    Is there precedent for that? They didn't last year, but one year's not much to go on.
