I bought the set on prepub back in December - most are great.
(On a side note, I thought the prepub price was the best price one could get on a product from Logos. This current sale, just 7 months after the prepub shipped, is cheaper than the original prepub price. $349-$50(coupon) = $299. The prepub price was $320.)

Yes. This sale definitely again calls into question prepub value. Best to treat prepub as a real preorder now and not as a deal.

I'm thinking of cancelling a lot of my prepubs, because it seems I can get these things down the road for the same price (or cheaper).

This is definitely a new M.O. Personally, I am glad for it. If the publisher is going to have a sale, I want in!

Actually, with the sale, it's not $349-$50(coupon) = $299 because the coupon is for a future order. So, you would need to add in the price of whatever that future order is as well. In order to get $50 off, the future order would need to be at least $50, so the NSBT is costing you $349 no matter what.

I bought Beale's Book - Temple - in Kindle because this set was not broken up. Then I saw that it was broken up in Logos and bought it at full price AND NOW I see it's on sale.
Wish they would at least let us know that a set "might" go on sale.

Just to clarify, the $50 coupon is only when you buy the full set, you get a $15 coupon for 12+ books or a $30 coupon for 24+ books. See https://www.logos.com/nsbt-sale
Tempting deal though!0 -

Thank you! Where is Phil Gons now and all the other Logos employees that "honor" the prepub system? Why not say, "Hey, sometimes is convenient for the publisher and us to give you a better discount than the 'prepub price' and sometimes is not." But don't try to convince us of something that has been proven time and time again to be false and very subjective when is not convenient for the company. Don't get me wrong I'm not angry but I believe this point needs to be address to be fair with all the customers.

Actually, money is fungible, so the coupon counts as real money on a future order. Since I order from Logos all the time, it is the same as getting an actual discount. Therefore, the prepub "broken promise" still stands. It doesn't matter - I just don't believe Logos any more that when something is on prepub is will actually be the cheapest price - I have seen too many go on sale later for less. My only point is I don't need to fixate on getting something on prepub anymore because I think it is a better deal - it's often not. It's my issue, not Logos as a company (they do what they want).

I picked up:
With the Clouds of Heaven: The Book of Daniel in Biblical Theology: Many reviews and articles on eschatology and Biblical theology reference this work and it is the main reason I was glad to see the set broken up.
Christ, Our Righteousness: Paul’s Theology of Justification: Read the review by Carson and pick this up if you are interested in justification or the NPP.
I would have probably gotten a few others, but the $100 Eerdman's Collection prevented me. However, if the old payment plan was in effect...

This were my top 6 cool choices from the sale! They seem very practical and informational
Thanks, in spite of those who got the prepub not getting the best price hahaha...we'll pray for you guys

Well get this!
After finding out that the set was now on sale as individual titles I 'chatted' with a sales rep and was refunded my initial full price for Beale's Temple and then picked it up for sale price and five other titles in that series.
THANKS FL for your generosity and the customer care that so many of us are getting used to, but not unappreciative.

Can someone explain for me how "biblical theology" is defined in these works because it can mean different things to different people. I come to biblical theology from the perspective of Geerhardus Vos. Do these volumes reflect this perspective or something else?

I agree one hundred percent. I have bought thousands of dollars of prepubs and they were good deals at the time. If the publisher comes up with a great deal after that, I rejoice that others can enjoy that as well. To artificially hold a price at a higher rate just because it was on prepub in the last year, has never made any sense to me and never will regardless of which side of the buying coin I am on. Not only does a high artificial price look bad on Faithlife when its competitors are beating their price, but it is frustrating for users who could benefit now (implies that were not able to get it at prepub). Let's remove the concept that prepub price is a guaranteed low price. Buy at prepub if it seems a fair price and you want it in production. If not, gamble that it will some day be cheaper and makes it out of prepub somehow. That's the way the rest of life works. Why should this be different?

I agree! Like most others, I want to get a good deal. So if I buy something and find it goes on sale for a lower price afterward, I get that same feeling of "Awwww. I didn't get the best deal." [:$] Now if the seller said the item would never be sold at a lower price, then did exactly that, I'd have reason to be upset. But barring that, I have to own up to the fact that I'm the one who decided when to buy and at what price. Now if by chance, I purchase a resource from Faithlife that goes on sale shortly after my 30 day return period is up and they are gracious enough to refund me the difference--that's just frosting on the cake and has increased my appreciation for the company. But they have in no way harmed me if they either can't do that or they choose not to do that.Danny Parker said:alabama24 said:Personally, I am glad for it.

In regard to pre-pubs, I've never viewed them as the lowest price something will ever sell for and to my knowledge, Faithlife doesn't claim that to be the case. So I'm thankful for every sale whether or not I wish to take advantage of it, or am even able to do so.

It traces themes canonically and integrates them secondarily to speaking in the Bible's own idiom. It is not a set of superficial word studies or systematic theology that is "biblical." My knowledge of Vos' definition is second-hand, but I think you will find these studies agreeable. and very profitable. Beale's volume on the Temple theme should be non-negotiable reading.

To anyone who will listen: The Acts of the Risen Lord Jesus by Alan Thompson is a must-have resource for anyone studying or preparing to preach through the book of Acts. I can't overstate how beneficial this book was for me when I preached through Acts 2 years ago. GET IT.

Sounds like a point-in-time statement and probably is (or was) true. Very different (in my opinion) than saying the pre-pub price is the lowest price at which a resource will ever be sold. If Faithlife does state the price will never be lower, then sells it at a lower price, that would be a horse of a different color.JH said:Rick Ausdahl said:In regard to pre-pubs, I've never viewed them as the lowest price something will ever sell for and to my knowledge, Faithlife doesn't claim that to be the case.

I don't mean to be argumentative--just a little different perspective I guess. Will let it go at that--don't want to hijack the thread.

The problem that I have with the seeming reversal of things is that certain volumes were withheld from the recent NIC sales precisely because they had been on pre-pub.

Agreed. Can a product that has ever been in pre-pub be part of a base package or be featured as the free book +1? In both cases it would be cheaper than the original pre-pub.
When I pay a certain price for a resource, I only ever do so when I feel it's worth it. When at a later point someone else gets the same thing for less, or for free, I can choose to feel happy for the ones having the chance for a good deal, or envy them and feel self-pity, or anything in between.
Unless FL offers lots and lots of products at huge discounts shortly after they leave pre-pub, I'm confident that feeling happy for the others works best for me. 😸

Is anyone able to open NSBT resources on a Kindle Fire HD (or any other Android based device)? They download fine on my Fire HD, but when selecting them (I've tried three), I get a message that there was an error trying to open the resource. There's a "Try again" option, but it results in the same error message.
NOTE: Please do not respond in this thread. I created a new thread titled "Problems with NSBT Resources". I tried to delete my post in this thread about the NSBT sale, but was not given the option to do so.

Yes. But, it is new to the series and just came out of pre-pub. If you purchase the NSBT collection you will find it is not part of this release and must be purchased separately.
