    I noticed that too.  Maybe Logos will include Lenski in a Lutheran Platinum package. Smile

    At this time, we have included everything Lutheran that is possible. We'll continue to work to secure rights to more and more products for Base Packages.

    I talked to several people at Logos who said that would not happen. If you have a preorder reserved and then buy a package containing that resource, then when the preorder is processed it will not charge you. I talked to someone in CS who told me that and then put me through to someone in Products who confirmed it. Is that not true?

    That's how it's worked before for me ... I was not charged a second time.

    I tested this just to see what would happen and was in fact charged twice without notice, contrary to what Logos told me on the phone. Faber was in the Anglican BP I picked up and I left it on my preorders just to see what would happen (yes, I was asking for it). Just got the email that it was charged,  and I verified it on my card. [:(] It's a pain that I have to go through and manually manage this myself.

    I did the same thing. Same reason. At 6:30PM MST I had an email apologizing for the mistake and saying the charge was refunded. So, it turned out ok.

    I too was surprised the new Lutheran Base package -Gold doesn't include Lenksi, I was even more surprised that it doesn't include Luther's Works nor the wonderful new CPH commentaries that Logos already has available. I didn't even see the Lutheran Study bible there or the several volumes of Johanne Gerhard's works or even the works of Martin Chemnitz or Melanchthon. It doesn't even have Walther's Church and Ministry or The Proper Distinction between Law and Gospel (CPH). Pieper's Christian Dogmatics and Elert is also missing. These are stunning omissions. Logos already has these well produced volumes and I'm puzzled why they are not included here. Then there are the many books (Preus, Roehrs & Franzmann, Voelz, Bohlmann, Koehler, BofC-Tappert, Kittel, Pannenburg, etc, etc)  that were on the wonderful  9 volume CD set put out several years ago and of course the Luther's Works CD.

    Is there any reason why these volumes that Logos sells separately are not included?

    I think in part it might be down to licensing agreements Logos has with different publishers. Because Logos has a licence to sell a resource individually or as part of a larger bundle, it doesn't mean they can necessarily make them a part of a base package. For example, some time ago, I think Baker New Testament Commentary, Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament and Pillar New Testament Commentary used to be a part of the Platinum base package, however I believe the publishers concerned asked Logos to remove them from future base packages and they were pulled.
