I can't possibly be alone in noticing that the last round of Gift of Savings with "savings up to 50% off their stores" seemed to be no higher than 40%. I saw nothing that Prime members got extra 10% to possibly explain the discrepancy. Regardless in general I have found quality to be wanting and prices to be soaring.

Speaking of quality, without mentioning names, there's one vendor from whom I have bought a number of items over the years. But of late, generally their models (clothes) all come with the same boring textures. I can buy additional textures from other merchants who use the same texturing scheme over and over again. The clothing models themselves lack any real detail. It's just a shape basically. This description could be applied to any number of vendors. Additionally, so much content here seems so esoteric that it seems more appropriate for free stuff since I can't believe sales would justify time spent.

For a long time I spent/wasted money on Poser upgrades. Now I am happy to use DS for everything. You could spend probably less than $75 and have DS to do so so much more than any overpriced version of Poser. Of course the marketplace at Daz is even worse in terms of consumer value....

ALL products that are not Prime items are 50% off for prime members in all of these store sales. I'm not sure what pricing you are looking at? But if you look the prime price is 50% off the base price of all of those items.

Have a wonderful holiday.

If the 40%-50% sales would go away you would see an increase of items, texture variety, and quality.

Why are the sales only for Prime members, some of us aren't members and you used to have sales for everyone. Every sales percentage now says you need to be a Prime member.

These items ARE on sale for everyone, items that are NOT Prime items are 50% off for Prime members and 40% off for Non Prime Members.
