Some major sellers stores including Out of Touch, JaMare, etc (until friday)

Today at daz3D, you can get x$ off your purchase for selected DO items. The rebate is based on your loyalty discount (eg if your loyalty discount is 25%, the rebate is $25). No buy-in, no NFT crap, just have to use the HAPPYHOLIDAYZ coupon and the select set is very large. So no reason not to use it and get a free or a couple of free items.


At rendo, DM store is on discount. Some new items are at 50% off, most of the store is at 60% off, while the oldest assets (v4 or older) are at 70% or 80% off. Maybe worth a look.

Just to be clear, since the "rebate" terminology is unfamiliar to me and not the terminology they're using nor have used in the past, it's one of those standard deals: "Get $25 worth for FREE* when you use Coupon Code: HAPPYHOLIDAYZ" from a select list (that amster22 linked). The difference from normal is that there's no other requirement.

OK, so now they have exclusive daily coupon codes for joining the Discord server (this was sort of mentioned before). I gave up Discord for a reason (too distracting), I REALLY don't want to have to create another account just for Daz3D. It'd also have to be a separate login should I want to create two different Discord presences for some reason.

Ugh!

Anyways, there's a free expression pack on Renderosity from Hamelon for G8, G3, and other figures. More expression packs good, so definitely grab your holiday freebies today if interested!

One other note. MAKE SURE to un-wishlist any freebies you download from the Renderosity giveaways. Honestly, I wish they'd let us 'purchase' temporary freebies so that we know that we have it already, but it is what it is. I had the Hamelon expressions on my wishlist, and might have tried to buy them down the road 'cuz I have so much stuff that I can't keep track of it all these days...

I'll probably end up wishlisting this again at some point though by accident.

I caved a couple of days ago when they gave a $10 credit, there were sufficient discounts at the time to get a good $25 asset for free. Free is Free. :)

I did create a new Discord account for this but once the account was verified with DAZ, I haven't had to go back to Discord to be eligible for the daily discounts.

So how easy is it to set up multiple Discord accounts? Quick rundown on how to do this? I like to keep my 'porn' persona separate from my Daz3D.com account...

It was easy for me because I did it on different computers, and used different e-mail addresses. The different e-mail address should be all you need. I also keep my various internet activities completely separate.

I use several browsers, firefox is my main browser, so I just used the discord web client in chromium and made a second account there. It's as if I've never joined in that browser, so I could just create an email alias which redirects to my main email and sign up with that.

Do we have a sense for what the best daz3d Gift Card discount is these days? I ran out my store credit balance back on Black Friday and I've been ignoring all the product deals waiting for a chance to reload it. The impression I have is that the days of 35%-off gift card deals may be behind us and the best you can hope for is 25%, but the only thing I remember seeing in the last few months was something like 15%.

Of course I'm STILL mad at myself for not investing in a LOT of gift cards back when they had the bug that gave us a 50% discount. (At the time I thought 2 max-value cards was plenty.)

I have checked my orders. There was a 20% GC discount (with a new release buy in) mid November. and something around 24% mid October (again with a new release). Probably there will be a GC sale soon, but it is very unlikely that the discount will be very high. 20% off is already not frequent and probably the order of magnitude we can expect. Maybe we can have something correlated to the loyalty discount. Al last it could be somehow useful.

I'd suggest getting a 'hold you over' amount the next time there's a gift card sale that's over 10% off that doesn't have an expensive prereq. As amster22 said, anything over 20% off you probably should jump on for now.

They really watered down the loyalty discount this year. It helps, but it's locked out of a a good chunk of the offers. A gift card discount at 'loyalty' levels would be kind of nice. I'd also like to see 50% off PC+ memberships, but am growing less optimistic. The end of year sale/New Year's sale it the one I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for. Otherwise, Daz3D.com has made it pretty easy to not buy a lot of stuff right now.

One thing of (not so good) note. I was looking at a gun (shooting) range yesterday. It's Daz+/DO, but still had a price tag over $18. If the new Daz+ items are going to be priced that high, hard pass for me. I'm becoming less and less happy with the Daz+ membership, thankfully the Fall PC+ sale was useful to me. It may be the month of June though before we see those deals again on a 'routine' basis. March Meh-ness will pop up, sure, but it's not nearly as exciting as it used to be.

There's a 'Vamps' one day only freebie over at Renderosity, but I bought that one already, several years ago now...

06_Enthralled_OhWee.jpg

Trace at the right is wearing it! I like the fact that it has a low cloth to skin ratio, yet still has a 'dress shirt' collar.

Anyways, back on topic:

Some 'La Femme' clones for Genesis 3 and 8 would be nice, for the other Renderosity holiday daily freebie. Has anyone come across any?

Just have to call out the Daz3D.com sales team for being tricky.

So today's sale is advertised as triple loyalty discount. Here's the exact wording.

58% OFF* Select Daz Originals

Special Triple Loyalty Discount Deal!

Soo, you would think that this would be 58% off * 75% off (25% off loyalty discount x 3, others may have a lower loyalty discount so adjust accordingly). BUT NOOOOOOO!

According to the math done by others in the Daz3D sales issues forum thread, and my own experience in dropping something from the selection in my cart, the discount started at 30% off (not 58% off), and then was bumped to 71% off (.7 x .75 x .75 x .75 = .2953125). That's right, rather than just tripling the loyalty discount, they applied it three times...

Not cool! Just sayin... I'll be interested to see how they 'fix' this one, either via sales page language or, god forbid, ACTUALLY apply the sale as advertised (definitely not holding my breath).

I'm taking a nap! Should be interesting to see how they address this by the time I wake up.

The rider on the item link is

"*Cannot be used to purchase items already owned at a lower price.
Loyalty Discount stacks 3x to calculate final discount. "

If you have the max 25% loyalty discount, that works out as roughly (DAZ Arithmentic) 58% off the already discounted price of qualifying items ... alot of M4, V4 and half a dozen G8(ish) stuff...

So if the product pages shows 30% discount, your discount in the basket is 71% (DAZ Arithmetic), for example:

Michael 4 3D Model Pro Suite
Retail: $199.95
Sale: $139.97 (30%)
Basket: $58.79 (58% off sale - 70.6% off retail)

[edit: which if I actually read stuff is what OhWee says ... ]

Nothing to add concerning the daz deal "triple" loyalty discount (which is actually a discount applied three times). Not only the deal is meh (at most 58% off 5+ years old assets, you can do much better, daz), but it leaves the unpleasant feeling that daz considers his customers as retard that will be fooled by any deceptive advertising.

Besides that, you can pay a visit to rendo with several interesting deals.

Several stores at 55-65% off depending on the vendor (until Friday)


A set of items at 70% off (until Tuesday)


A set of products at 55%/65%prime off. Mostly Christmas oriented, but not only/ (until Thursday).
