Subject: Daz - how do you know which you can buy?

OK, call me thick if you like (you won;t be the first!) but I simply can not find an easy way to identify Brokered and Non-Borkered items at Daz. If we are only allowed to use vouchers on Daz items then surely we can spot them easier. At present I have to go into an item's detail screen, and the brokered bit seems to be the last thing to load on my slow telephone-line connection. Then I discover it is brokered so back I go the main screen to try another item. There are not many things actually BY Daz is there (plat club excluded of course)? And even fewer are $5 so I guess I will have to spend a good bit of cash to actually 'save' with my vouchers. Not a rant, just an observation.

Look on the item-code, each brokered product-id ends with a "b". For example: V3 Rogue Pack, Code: ps_tx446b

Not to mention...when you see something other than "DAZ Original Item", it means it by a brokered merchant. The only exception (racking my brain) might be some of Anton's earlier stuff.

And not to mention each Broked item page says "Brokered For".

Ask me a question, and I'll give you an answer.

Thank you Fredy - why on earth have I not noticed that before! Big hug! galactron22 - yes, but you can not see this on the main page!

I have the same complaint. I don't want to have to go page to page searching for DAZ items. I want them all together, separated for me. Call me spoiled. :) I wrote them and asked for a side bar link to a collection of only DAZ store items. Let's see if they will make it happen. Come on, let's make it easy for PLAT CLUB Members to spend that money!!

At the moment, you can type "DAZ Original" into the search box and you get a big list of DAZ Original items. It used to be that you could click on the icon in the spot where they list the creator (either DAZ Original or "brokered for ...") and that would take you to a list of items by that person, but this feature seems to have been broken for a while now since they redesigned the site. Hope this helps. Frank

This might seem slightly off topic, but it's related to the business of the P-Club vouchers. Both me and a friend tried to use our P-Club vouchers this weekend. In both cases, the vouchers automatically applied at checkout time, or so it appeared. In fact, our confirmation e-mails showed that we were charged the price without the voucher. Furthermore, the vouchers disappeared from our acount pages, worst of all, no download link for the product ever appeared. Overcharged...for nothing, and to boot, the voucher was voided. What a great feeling. If you want to avoid the frustration that DAZ' still messed up website cause me this weekend, use your vouchers during the week. At least then you stand a chance of reaching someone at DAZ to amend their ongoing purchase process errors.

Well, maybe you had some bad luck. I also purchased some stuff this weekend and saw that the $5 voucher would be applied. I got my download links OK. Then I received 2 emails. One email showed all the prices and the total (without the voucher). Then the second email show the amount charged to the credit card...and it was $5 less than the total listed on the other email. So.... worked OK for me.

Ok, I'm being patient. :-) Glad to hear it worked for you, Chuck.


FishNose ( ) posted Sun, 10 August 2003 at 1:19 PM

Yes, I had the same experience. 2 mails, one had the voucher applied, the other not. Strange way of doing things and it gave me hiccups. But the right amount was debited and the item was on the list. I bought 88 items in the last few days at DAZ...... sale, you know. Almost all PC stuff, DAZ originals. Total was less than 100 bucks. I mean, how I pass up the V3 Morphing Dress, or Anton's The Adventurers, or Deco Redux, stuff like that, at 99 cents each? No way! Took me hours and hours to download and install, added 600 MB to my runtime! :] Fish

We had a small bug over the weekend with vouchers creating these situations you mention, it has been corrected already. Any outstanding errors in an order, please email our sales staff and we'll get it straightened out for you. We're still heavily working on the store and plan to integrate several new ways of easily finding what you're looking for. I think you will all be quite pleased, though that new scheme is a little ways off yet. Steve Kondris DAZ Productions, Inc.
