"Low" Discount on Base Package

I am a Logos Now subscriber and am just looking at the cost of the Gold library.

The cost to me is 186.16. It says this is for 91 resources worth 5,025. I get that is way off. But the New to You list includes several collections which, when expanded, I see I already own all of them completely. If I add all of the prices under New to You, I get only 10 resources, for a total value of 1269.99. That makes my dynamic discount 85% off (that's still, obviously a great deal). It seems like I remember that base packages used to be 90% off, but this is less than that, even including the introductory discount and Now. Am I misremembering, or has anyone else noticed a higher rate?

It does seem a little odd Justin - you might like to have a word with sales.

One thing about duplicates - sometimes they aren't they are complete revisions of series.

Some folk like to keep the old version to compare with the new.

89-90% was about average for Logos 6, but it did vary. Collectors was quite a bit less than this.

I calculated the following for L7, for new customers:

Starter: 90.03%
Bronze: 92.52%
Silver: 89.70%
Gold: 87.93%
Platinum: 86.98%
Diamond: 86.75%
Portfolio: 87.00%
Collectors: 85.49%

When adding up "New to You", beware of two factors:

Unless you click "Expand" on part-collections, you won't get an accurate price.
A few things that are unreleased show up as $0, even though they do have a price in the calculation. For example, I think there's a MobileEd course in Gold that you won't yet have showing up as $0. If you put a $200-$300 value for that, you're probably going to be much nearer 90%.

Which class are you referring to Mark?

Oh ok, I misunderstood what you meant by "you won't yet have" as though you meant there was a class included in Gold which hadn't shipped yet. Now I understand that you meant, NT176 was essentially new to all of us even though it was listed as 0 dollars. Correct?

That's right.

Thanks for the verification, Mark. I already bought silver, and "expand" shows nothing I do not already own. So there are no more hidden values. It looks like with the new, slightly mysterious dynamic pricing, the variation from a straight proportion (which would maintain relative discount) is much higher.
