    Now, on memberships - 50% is the best membership discount in a long time, and if there was a super cheap new item that qualified, I'd probably do it... 

    sort price low to high and pick a nonfree item: https://www.daz3d.com/shop/#&filter_new=1&order=price^-1&filtered=1

    Yeah, that virtual boycott seems to be working, LOL

    I would expect the only disgruntled customers are those who were awake and shopping at the daily turnover. In my opinion, anyone who didn't see the higher discount, (or doesn't keep watch on this thread,) isn't going to be put off by the lower discount, but see it as a windfall, no matter how small.

    Theoretically, if half of Daz's customers dumped their carts this morning due to the increase in Zev0's product in their cart, sales overall could be disappointing, and GU for G8M could still be the Top Seller.

    Fact, not theory: I really like Zev0 and his products. I've got a script that allows me to convert G3 morphs for use on G8, and I can use Growing up for G3M/F on G8M/F, but I prefer to support the PA, and that's why I bought GU for G8F, and why I'll eventually get GU for G8M... When the price of the G8M brings the two bought separately closer to the price I would have paid buying the bundle.

    I prefer spending my budget on products for the men anyway. If I have to choose between them, I'll wait and buy the product for the males, regardless of the vendor.

    I think for products that morph the body in a fairly major way (and GU does this, particularly the female one) then it is worth picking up the version designed for the base figure, due to all the jcm's that aid in better bending when the morph is dialled in. Having said that, the brilliant script by Singular Blue that transfers morphs from G3 to G8 does also transfer the jcms (which GenX did not do) and these do help with bending for those morphs.

    So, what is the new thread title going to be?

    Well, I just got a message that I get a whooping extra 5% off for buying Growing Up for G3F WOW!  And this after earlier offering it for $1.50 less than the new discounted price. Thanks but NO THANKS! Happy Holidays Bah Humbug,.cusse the sale sucked.

    Ditto. I too bought The Growing up for G3F bundle and didn't get any offers, so for me the sale really sucked and I decided to buy nothing. Today I bought two extra (have two already) computerized heaters at $60.00 a piece, for the bird aviary to have  - just in  case the aren't available in two years.

    I keep seeing folks saying the discount is for purchasing Growing Up for G3F... Do you folks mean the latest for Genesis 8 Female? That's the product referenced in my Exclusive Offers message...

    I just purchased the new growing up bundle for Gen 8 and then my orange bar changed as seen in the screen shot: 'We noticed your purchase.'.
    What I don't understand is how do you get a discount for buying the genesis 8 FEMALE version when the female version is not sold seperately, and how does a 5% discount work AFTER​ you've already made your purchase?

    Thank you.

    I keep waiting for the "Well, I'd be stupid not to jump on THAT," point of the sale. It will come. They keep telling us, it is all about building up anticipation.

    Now, on memberships - 50% is the best membership discount in a long time, and if there was a super cheap new item that qualified, I'd probably do it... 

    sort price low to high and pick a nonfree item: https://www.daz3d.com/shop/#&filter_new=1&order=price^-1&filtered=1

    When you add the membership to your cart, I'm sure you qualify for PC+ prices straight away. Adding a PC+ new release to your cart should give it to you at PC+ pricing. 

  • When you're going through the commons and see 50 new messages on this thread, does anyone else get a sinking feeling that they may have just misseed out on another incredible glitch. laugh

  • cherpenbeckcherpenbeck Posts: 1,412

    Nope. I love to keep a bit of money in my wallet. No regrets here. DAZ already gets enough of mine.

    Nah. You win some, you lose some. But one thing you learn fast: If discounts seem too good to be true, buy first, ask questions later! lol

    The female version is sold separately (for some months, now):
    https://www.daz3d.com/growing-up-for-genesis-8-female-s

    It looks like DAZ is using a very simple formula that sees a purchase of the female version (in your case, in the bundle) and just triggers the banner regardless of other circumstances. It might <speculation> be that the 5% discount / banner was a hasty response to customer reaction to a glitch correction.

    I could have sworn there was a "Clothing Smoother for G3F" by Sickleyield...I can only find a genesis and genesis 2 version tho. My eyes are old and my search-fu is non-existant, so it's just me, or was there not one made?

    oh my, I must have forgotten it was released. Thanks for clearing that up because it sure threw me. It makes sense now. Thanks again.

    Are you thinking of the demuscler / waistband fixer? She has G2M/G3M and G2F/G3F versions. My tablet won't let me paste the link.

    I've got the decrackifier for pulling clothes out of the bum, but i was looking for something that would smoothe out the dreaded V crease in some skirts on G3F and I was sure she had done a clothing smoother for her -  there's one for G2F: https://www.daz3d.com/clothing-smoothers-for-daz-genesis-2-female-s I used Fit Control for G3F on the skirt and that helped a bit, but it'snot totally successful.
