My AppSumo purchase history:

* Lean Startup Bundle (2010)

* MixPanel Lifetime Account (YC Week, 2010)

* GinzaMetrics Discount (YC Week, 2010)

* Optimizely Discount (YC Week, 2010)

Then not a single discounted app or physical book in 2011 or 2012, despite remaining on their mailing list all that time. I haven't seen any interesting offers since then, just "action videos" and other infoproducts.

Glad I'm not alone! AppSumo is actually where I bought Sparrow - an example of the quality stuff they used to have on there. I'd love to see them go back to their roots...

I've got the same opinion of the service as well. Not impressed or compelled to purchase anything for the last several months.
