Locking the female version behind the Premier subscription paywall is just EVIL!
Or a desperate attempt at making "premier" work well for them - I may be completely wrong, because I am not basing myself on real data, only on "gut feeling" (that can be heavily biased, in this case), but probably the uptaking of premier has been lower than they expected, given the continous attempt at marketing premier in every whichever way possible.

Just a note that there are a few vendors offering 20-50% off sales at Renderotica. A number of these sales end today. Might be worth a looksee.

I just want to say that I've missed shopping at Renderosity. No impending 3 hour lightning deal changeover deadline, discounts are straightforward, I can take my time to check what I already have at the other store and spend a few minutes pondering about if I want/need an item.

The lightning deals haven't been lining up for me over at Daz3D.com so far today, which has been nice, I can just focus on building my Renderosity cart! Sure, 65% off, stacking with a 25% off coupon on most items isn't quite as good as some of the stacked Daz discounts, but at least I'm not playing cart Jenga trying to figure out which items are getting an extra stacked discount from somewhere.

Yesterday's cart building exercise over at Daz3D.com was very frustrating, looking at two identically priced items in my wishlist or on some sale sub-page, but one would get a bigger discount from somewhere, while the other didn't. I spent a lot of time waiting for the cart page to recycle after deleting individual items that weren't getting quite the same discounts.

As for my Renderosity shopping today, it feels like kind of a Zen shopping moment actually! I miss this.
:cool:

Actually, for me yesterday was very fruitful, in fact the best I've done for this whole 25th Anal versary gubbins at Daz.

Took a while to achieve the result as I had to split the purchases across multiple orders to take advantage of the coupons and peripheral deals but overall the total price averaged out to much less than my target per item price.

My main bugbear has been the exclusion of 'new items' from the Wishlist deals, two thirds of my wishlist are new and 2 of the older one are unlikely to ever reach their target price (not desperate for them ... yet)

I ended up being pretty happy with the deals I managed to find over the last three days thanks to the wishlist coupons and such in the Daz3D.com sales, but it was still a frustrating experience. The 'mechanics' of working with stacked discounts and doing the cart Jenga thing, yeah that's what frustrates me. Particularly yesterday due to the reasons I mentioned.

My point is that simplifying the Daz3D.com sales a bit would be less stressful for a lot of folk...

Sadly, that's unlikely to happen; the obfuscation is deliberate, stressing the purchaser is profitable because it results in hurried or ill constructed carts, missed discounts and filler purchases to top-up tokens or store credit.

I have been toying with the notion of training an AI to deconstruct the Daz Sales Speak and building prototype carts; but I'm too long in the tooth to learn that skills set, at the moment I use the Wishlist, Daz-Deals and a speadsheet to check my cart and maximise the discounts to achieve per item price... So if there is anyone out there, you'd make a lot of folk happy
