    That's an awesome way to fix a mistake :) Does it take time to propagate? I still only see the same 10 old items in I13's related items.

    It's essentially based on a date. Originally we said okay throw everything the artist released prior to date x. We've now gone and said okay now throw everything in to the category that is older than date y. If the artist didn't release anything between date x and y then their category won't increase.

    trying to imagine what a mindblower item would look like as a prop, clothing, or pose set. ;)

    Fair enough :)

    The $5 discount also works on giftcards by the way!

    Not any more.

    Aww, I see that you blocked my GC purchase.
    Wasn't aware that it was not permitted.
    I figured it was possible because it wasn't stated in the excluded list :)

    Will it include these items

    Those items are all a little bit too new to be included in this particular promotion. Melody Man Strings is borderline, I'll see what I can do to get that thrown in the sale.

    Thats because Seductress is new and new releases are excluded from the coupon.

    Seductress still has the little green banner in the corner listing it as new. Products that have been in the store less than 60 days are considered new so anything that was released after March 8 would be considered new products and not part of the sale.

    I have a machine with IE 8---no green promo banner for me either. I'm glad you pointed it out--I was having a hard time with finding non-new items as well....

    Apparently DAZ programmers can't count to 7 because if you put all 7 of today's (Day 2) New Mindblower releases in your cart and then add things from the appropriate category, you only get 60% discount instead of the 70% you would expect. At least that is what is happening to me.

    Has this happened to anyone else? Has anyone actually received the 70% discount yet?

    "Up to a 70% discount". Don't worry, the assurance is that it will not exceed 70%.

    Ah... it appears that some Admins can't count to TWO either. Why merge threads about day TWO problems and bury them in with Day ONE problems?

    Lucky you, I end up at about 25%. It's probably the same bait and switch as yestoday, when they forgot to set the cutoff date in the listing, so it's only the really old items that qualifies. Your discount will then vary with how many "correct" items you guess.

    It's amazing with the time that's abviously spent making banners and sending out emails, that nobody has time to actually sit down and try to click just once on this promo stuff.

    Sometimes I think it is all very intentional - people just can't be THAT incompetent.

    Now, now. It's not bait and switch. I'm not a big fan of these promos with the no return policy so I either opt out if it's one of those long term promos or I just don't participate.

    So far, I haven't seen anything in related products category that hasn't been on sale at a better price without a lot of strings attached. At the very least, the PA products will end up half off their regular price during the annual PA sale in September.

    I think my initial reply got lost in the thread merge. Anyway, posting a screen shot of your cart would be helpful. I've double checked the rules and tested them and they appear to be giving 70% off on Day 2 related items if you have all 7 day 2 new releases in your cart.

    See attached screen shot. 70% off of $24.95 is $7.48 which you can see on the Winter Terrains for DAZ Studio Product.

    I asked the mods to merge the threads as it is easier for me to keep track of issues with the sale in a single thread. This thread is dedicated to the entire sale, not just day one stuff.

    I completely misread the terms, what you are saying is true and quite clear. I got it totally wrong.
    Sorry about that, I've edited my post to reflect this.

    Here is a screenshot of my cart - please correct me if I am wrong. I highlighted the top 7 products which (I think) are the new items for today. If that is correct, the products not highlighted (chosen from the related links) should be 70% but they appear to be only 60%.

    I would appreciate someone else doing the math because all this Mindblower stuff has blown my mind, (but not in a good way). Thanks

    We were having some issues with FW Joanie HD this morning. When did you fill your cart?

    I'm wondering if you remove her from your cart and then add her again if it will fix the problem. Try that and let me know what happens.

    **Edit** I have duplicated your cart and the discounts are applying properly (see attached screen shots). Cart total may seem high because it is charging me sales tax, but if you look at the individual items you'll see they are each 70% off.

    Thanks for the reply - you are correct about FW Joanie - I removed it and then re-added it and the proper discounts are applied - THANKS! :)
