You might pay less for Lutheran Silver than Bonhoeffer was on prepub. I did.

Agree. I actually ordered Bonhoeffer just minutes prior to the Lutheran packages being offered. Cancelled the Bonhoeffer order today and bought the Silver package for only an additional $31.

I haven't heard much about him, but his book reviews on amazon looks promising.

You need a free book!
I only focussed on the books I didn't already own but were in my wish list. As well as Bonhoeffer, on my wishlist were Augsburg Commentary on the New Testament (ACNT) (15 vols.), and Gerd Theissen's The New Testament: A Literary History. I'm sure there's other stuff that's useful, but the price I was being offered was about 2/3 of the price of just those three items, so that was enough for me to pull the trigger. Summa Theologica is another major addition, but I already had that. But it was really Bonhoeffer that was my main motivation.

which makes me seriously reconsider this, as I already own Bonhoeffer and much of the stuff in the Lutheran packages, still Bronze and Silver both go for more than 200 EUR upgrade.
Have joy in the Lord!

Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works has more biography stuffs, little what I want.
and the Augsburg commentary doesn't seem to get wow reviews on the internet.. ..hmm..I don't know, doesn't seem that commentary looked like a selling point for most people here..

The Augsburg Commentary is getting a little older now, I believe it was mostly published in the 80's? But it is near universal in many Lutheran clergy circles, I know I grew up with every pastor's office I saw having the full set on the shelves. It's still very solid and helpful. The reasons you probably aren't finding online reviews are because of the publication dates and also the popularity.
