It's rare to get any discount on BECNT volumes. It's a shame that the discount is not greater on the latest BECNT pre-pub. It's not sufficient to entice me to commit at this stage, which I'm sure is the whole point of pre-pub pricing. It would be great if Baker were more generous. I would have loved to have ordered this one, but at this price I'll consider buying if I'm preaching on Romans rather than place my order now.

Not interested! I’d prefer for the series to be finished first and then do revisions if needed to make an extra buck.

Say what, I'll pass, and if it goes up after publication, I'll never buy. I can wait a YEAR OR TWO and get a paper copy for less than half price used.
For those tempted despite the price, here's an excerpt from the introduction to this revised edition.
Wow, $7 whole dollars off! There will be a herd of folks wanting this deal... I jest of course. I will wait til I get a coupon or birthday money... I dont have the first edition, but would be interested to see these "changes" to his position compared.
I'm with you there Michael. I'd rather get $20 off with a birthday coupon than save $7 at pre-pub.
I went to the Baker site and it looks like GK Beale will be putting out a new Colossians/Philemon volume in April 2019... What happened to the old volume?
Also I noticed on the baker site that the Philippians has a 2nd edition produced in 2005 but from what I can tell on the Logos page we still have the first edition.
It seems like the second edition has revised content per the website

Disregard the Logos Product page is mislabeled
Awe! forgot about birthday coupon may get it then- depends.
I noticed just now that they changed it to $10 off [:D] 16%
No one to date has published any work on Collosian/Philemon in this series.
I'd love it if a discount was given for those who already owned the original Logos volume. I can't imagine enough has changed to merit a repurchase of the entire volume. Seems like something the publisher should be willing to work with Logos on.
Ha! You ended your sentence with a preposition. Even Puss in Boots knows you don’t end a sentence with a preposition 😂 unless you meant when Logos is on?
For most buyers of something like this I don't think the percentage off is as important as the overall price and the cost of the Logos version compared to other versions. In this case CBD has the best price with the HC being $46.99 and their epub being $32.99. K is a little more pricey at $36.32 for me and they don't have any discount on the HC.
If people value their Logos' tagging and such then they will certainly pay the price or use their birthday money or wait for it to go on sale. I think the only concern for Logos is that new customers who are considering buying into the Logos walled garden will be put off when they see that new releases are going to cost more (when they're available at all).

It would be nice if there were also a $10 Logos credit like there was with the 2 Corinthians volume when that went on pre-pub. I think that was the last volume published in the series. It would certainly tempt me to order now.
Helpful. Thanks, Paul
