The Buy One, Get One 50% Off isn't a bad sale idea, the item with the 50% off must be of equal or lower value than the first item. Good, good, that's good. Or is it? I did a trial run of nine items, listing them from highest to lowest price. Now you would think every second item which is a lower price than the preceding item would be half price - yes? Not so. What the website does and does automatically, is source the lowest priced item on your list and take the 50% off that. That's a bit cheeky don't you think.
Here's my list
Price is automatically calculated on their website
ROXANNE CARDI - $149.95
ETERNAL ROMANCE TUNIC - $139.95
PALM FROND MAXI DRESS - $129.95
MILLENNIUM TOP - $119.95
GOING PLATINUM TANK - $89.95 Now $44.97
EYELET MESH SHRUG - $89.95 Now $44.97
MULTI NECKLACE - $49.95 Now $24.97
SILHOUETTES NECKLACE - $39.95 Now $19.97
SEED OF DOUBT NECKLACE - $29.95 (Special doesn't apply to this)
Total: $704.63
The way I would calculate discount prices
Now to my way of thinking it is fairer not to mention cheaper, if the 50% discount is applied like this -
ROXANNE CARDI - $149.95
ETERNAL ROMANCE TUNIC - $139.95 Now $69.97
PALM FROND MAXI DRESS - $129.95
MILLENNIUM TOP - $119.95 Now $59.97
EYELET MESH SHRUG - $89.95
PALM FROND BLOUSE - $89.95 Now $44.97
MULTI NECKLACE - $49.95
SILHOUETTES NECKLACE - $39.95 Now $19.97
SEED OF DOUBT NECKLACE - $29.95 (Special doesn't apply to this)
Total $644.63
That's a difference of $60.00.
