I think this collection should be available for Logos already. How about we get some more bids to push it through for production?https://www.logos.com/product/16808/english-bible-collection
I've been in since December 2013.
It would be great to get this into production. I don't understand why is languishes at less than 50%.
This is a very good collection of English Bibles.
I have several of these in hard copy and have used them, particularly Isaac Leeser's work.
I have several of these in software format in another Bible software program, and find them useful and worthwhile.
You likely can't beat the price of this collection.
What is the point of having more Bible translations? For many years I have been helped in studying the Bible by consulting Bible translations that are what I call "distinctive." That is, the rendering is unique and insightful, not just a rewording or simplification of the King James Version English text.
To me, that is what makes this collection a good one.
May I encourage you to bid on this one. I've been in on this one for quite some time.
Like Bruce Dunning says, it's hard to imagine why such a useful set has not garnered more interest, especially among users of Logos Software, who surely are very interested in Bible study.
I would hope that readers here know well that every translation from the original text into English was surely made to provide additional insight into the meaning of the text. I know I have benefited from my personal large collection of translations--large collection, at least, for an English teacher, now retired. I think my main collection of Bible translations takes up at least forty feet of shelf space.

I don't understand it either. I've watched lots of other pre-pubs that seem a lot less valuable go into production. I've been in at $600 for over two years. I would love to see some progress.
I wish it had New Testament in Modern English by J.B. Phillips. Been asking for that for years.
It wouldn't be in CP if it were offered.
The most recent Bible in this collection is over 100 years old (published in 1914), so Philips would be too recent anyway.

Wow, how did you place that bid! [;)]

Wow, how did you place that bid!
Now I wonder, too. I must have gone wild in my enthusiasm. I cut it to $60. That's reasonable.
Bump!
Getting this to production at $30 would be a much better reformation deal than those "25% off" offers ;-)

I've actually poked at FL a bit on this one: the premier Bible software on the planet doesn't have some of the most influential versions of the English Bible available (yet). But we have the Idiot and the Oddity, and a bunch of Amish romance.
Hmmm.
The good news is that it is now over 60%. So in the past three and a half months, it has gone up more than 10%.
I was going to go bid but then noticed I already bid almost a year ago.
That's funny. Maybe you could bid twice to increase the number of bids. [;)]
I've been in since 2014 at $50. I'd up my bid if need be. If it were my biz, I'd put this one into production since it is so core. It's not like it would make the company broke to do that.
Maybe put them in a reformed Collectors Or any L7 BP. Ive been in on this one for a long time as well.
This has the 2nd highest number of bidders among all current CP listings.
Only hope to get into production is higher bids.
