I'm glad Steve Kondris clarified the "bonus pack" thing. I joined around Christmas of last year. It sounds like I will get the bonus pack when I renew. The sale thing I pretty much got the drift of. It always bugs me a bit when I make a purchase and then the item goes on sale a couple of weeks later.....but that can happen anywhere. Memberships, on the other hand, should not benefit new members more than others. Any incentives should benefit all members equally and encourage new people to join. The Platinum club has been a great bargain. I'm glad I joined when I did as I know I've saved a bundle on DAZ original creations and special items. Glad to hear I can expect to get the bonus pack as well :)
