Meyers - A Dream is About to Come True!
Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament!
http://www.logos.com/product/9847/critical-and-exegetical-commentary-on-the-new-testament-21-vols
Almost there!!
It's been inching along week by week; month by month. And now, just a little more to go.
Meyer's has been discussed quite a bit, but if you're not familiar with it, just search your library for references (typically 'Meyer' singular, ini tials H.A. W.). Even more recent resources reference it due to its depth and the man himself.
More about Pastor Meyer from the Logos write-up:
"Known to have an encyclopedic memory and an appetite for buying books, it was not uncommon for Meyer to be reading his contemporaries in his native German, but also in English, Dutch, and French—languages that came as natural to him as Greek, Latin, and even Gothic. For over forty years Meyer balanced working on new additions to the commentary collection while also updating those already published with multiple, serious revisions. Before passing the baton to a few of his trusted peers to finish the NT, Meyer had completed sixteen volumes."
If you haven't bid, take another look.
And if you're early in your career, 'Meyer' will never come cheaper! You'll eventually want it.

I Agree this is a dream set at a dream price I am glad I know about the CP on this one. I missed out on a lot of good CP offers before I owned Logos. And II know they cost too much now.! I don't have to miss this one. Don't miss this one.

I would suggest that anyone interested in this resource delay placing a bid until after the Wednesday cutoff so that you can get the longest period possible to adjust the price downward.

I warned you that you should wait to push this over the top until the cut-off time for establishing the price on Community Pricing offerings closed so that you could have time to drive the price down some more, but you didn't listen. Now you don't have much time to drive the price down. It doesn't really matter to me since I'm not interested in such old scholarship unless it is OUTSTANDING or GROUNDBREAKING scholarship and will not be placing a bid.

George ... it was the 'Joker' that did it. We all tried to warn him (her?) but you know 'Jokers'. I am a little surprised though.
But I still am mucho happy Meyer can now go forward.
I have too many resources that used him and had a lot of respect for him; I'd at least like to see what his discussion and logic was.
I'm not into groundbreaking. Outstanding, yes.

I should have activated the "Bat" signal. [;)]

Under 11 hours remain on 11/11/11 to place bid for http://www.logos.com/product/9847/critical-and-exegetical-commentary-on-the-new-testament-21-vols
Currently bidding would result in price of $ 30; looking at progress, noticed more new bids of $ 30 (or $ 25) could reduce price to $ 25 for all bidders.
Keep Smiling [:)]
