Question on Platea: Epic Bundle and the discounts to cart.

I put this item in my cart,

Platea: Epic Bundle

straight from Jack Tomalin's store, as it is a MM item, then I put another MM item in there, and no 50% discount is indicated.
What is going on, and is anyone else having this problem?

Also, if I put another MM item in with it, should the new item then show the extra 10% off, or do I have to buy the Platea: Epic Bundle first, and then put other items in the cart before I get the extra 10% off.

Thanks.
R

    Platea : Epic Bundle is not included in today's March Madness Day 17, but it's still on the 30% off introduction price.
    Only the items in the current March Madness category are qualified for the 50% MM discount. That also counts for the participating vendors, where usually items, which were released within the last 60 days, are excluded from any sales.

    Edit: Please ignore the following two sentences, because they are the result of a miscalculation.
    If you put the Platea : Epic Bundle in your cart with an MM item, then you immediately receive the 10% off on the MM item and also for the Platea : Epic Bundle.
    If you buy the Platea : Epic Bundle first, then you will lose the extra 10% off for that.

    New items don't get the extra discount to make them 50% off, so no you shouldn't get 50% off Platea if it's in the cart with an MM item. But I believe you should immediately get the 10% additional discount, as long as it's in your cart (assuming you haven't purchased either of the other items that get the extra discount - it's only one extra 10% discount no matter how many of the qualifying items you buy).

    OK... thanks very much, Andy.
    That is a big help.

    Hello Richard.

    Do you mean that if I have another MM item in the cart, that item will also get the extra 10 % off?

    That is my understanding, yes - I'd already bought the two qualifying items before the sale started so I haven't been able to verify it.

    That is not happening for me. If I add another MM item to the cart, the Platea takes 10% off itself, but does not affect the other items.
    Also, if I add a $1.99 MM item to the Platea Bundle there is no change in pricing of the Platea.
    My understanding from the add is that the 10% reduction is added to each additional MM item added to the cart. But this is not happening.

    You are right, when the Platea : Epic Bundle is in the cart, the 10% off will not be immediately subtracted from the other MM items. To get the extra 10% off, you need to buy the Platea : Epic Bundle first, if you didn't already have bought Aiko 5 or Garibaldi.

    My calculation in the first reply was wrong, sorry for the confusion.
