Add a "Shopping List" to one's account?

Eric Weiss

Amazon has a "Shopping List" where I can add the names/links of books and things I may be interested in buying at some time.

It would be nice if Logos could add something like this to one's account as a convenient non-misplaceable list of what we at some point thought we might be interested in purchasing.

It would be in Logos' interest to do this, because If it's a pre-pub or community pricing option that we have not yet decided to commit to, or if it's something that is going to have a special sale price, its presence on the Shopping List could prompt Logos to send us an email alerting us to its about-to-be-released status or other pricing status changes/bargains, which could prompt us to move it from "thinking about it" to buying it.

This is generally talked about on these forums as a "wish list". It has been suggested probably dozens of times, and is on their to-do-list.

In the mean time you can add an Amazon button to your browser toolbar and save your list there. It's what lots of us do.

If it's a CP and you're even mildly interested, always put in a bid at (at least) the lowest possible level. That way you will always get an e-mail before the bidding closes, and can decide then whether to up your bid or pass. 

If it's a prepub, remember prices can be raised at any time, so get in as early as possible. You can always cancel later. As long as the resource is only gathering interest, your cancellation makes no difference to Logos' finances. Just try not to make a habit of ordering before it reaches 100% and canceling after, as that 'tricks' Logos into starting to produce that resource, believing their costs are covered, and then maybe they aren't after all. (They are calculating on a certain number of late cancellations, though, so it's no disaster if you have to do it once in a while. Just don't abuse it.)
