Site Request: Compare what I own to what's in a collection:

I still wish there was a "what's new for you in this collection?" button which would read my license and then print out

(A) Titles of books in the new collection that I don't own yet

(B) the Logos price of buying that book or bookset alone.

(D) the comparative value of buying the upgrade to the next passage instead of (C).

Example:

[quote] You own Scholars Gold (LE) + Other resources.

IF upgrading to Scholars Platinum (LE) will gain:

$224.95   Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament (8 Vols.)
$349.95 Believer’s Church Bible Commentary (19 Vols.)
$489.95 Charles Simeon’s Horae Homileticae Commentary (21 Vols.)
$199.95 Classic Commentaries on the Greek New Testament (14 Vols.)
$29.95   Godet’s Commentary on Luke’s Gospel (2 Vols.)
$249.95 Pillar New Testament Commentary (10 Vols.)
$59.95   Bible Made Easy Series (13 Vols.)
$19.95   Among the Gospels and the Acts, by Peter Ainslie
$49.95   The Life and Epistles of St. Paul (2 Vols)
$59.95   J. A. Broadus Preaching Collection (3 Vols.)
$14.95   Christ and Creation
$124.95 Oxford Movement Historical Theology Collection (10 Vols.)
$24.95   The Fundamentals (4 Vols.)
$28.95   Bernard of Clairvaux
$11.99   The Truth about World Views
         Apostolic Fathers Reverse Interlinear
         The Apostolic Fathers: Greek Texts and English Translations
$279.95   Analytical Key to the Old Testament (4 Vols.)
$29.95    A Concise Coptic–English Lexicon
$150.00   A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, 3rd ed.

Buying all of these separate will cost you: $2400.19

Or your upgrade discounted price is: $300.00 Click here to upgrade at this price.

I can only imagine an increase in package sales at that point.

NOTE: this is not just a "what's the difference between scholars gold and scholars platinum" I already own many of the books that make up the difference, this is a list of only the books I don't own yet.

Thanks Thomas.

That is the upgrade info I was looking for.

It looks we want a lot of work done from Logos, Thomas [:)] It would be nice of course...

Hold on Edwin, this is a feature request not an actual feature.

And that example was only an example pertinent to me and my collection of books.

I just wish there was a button that did that.

I like this idea a lot. And it'd be nice to have each line item be a hotlink to the item's page, too, so that one can read about the new items without having to cut and paste titles into the search bar and then look through a long list....

Thomas, your example matched my current pkg and the upgrade that I was considering.

I'm planning on waiting a little while for the current activity to settle down some before I make the upgrade. I don't have time right now to learn L4 and still operate L3.

It has been interesting to watch all the discussions.

But of course, that's an excellent point.

Exactly Quipper. I would love that too. But it would take a bit of programming resources off the curent projects. Personally, I would welcome it be done now, at the expense of delayed projects. I would even pay $30 for the application. Call it something like "Buying Assistant." Some people don't plan on building libraries but those that do can make their money go a lot further. Are you aware there are some titles that by themselves sell for $150 but when bundled with others can be bought for half that (for the whole bundle!) ? That is two scholarly tomes for half the price of one.
