Big problem with "Get $300 off the Nelson Bible Reference Bundle" offer
I've received an email alerting me to the offer on this set. The email promises dynamic pricing: "if you already have some of the volumes, you’ll only pay for what’s new to you" — but there is no dynamic pricing on this product.

Yep I'm here to bring this up too, but Mark had a natural advantage of being woken up 6 hours before me.
Also, the coupon code is case-sensitive. That's annoying.

Even so, he wasn't the first to report it: June's Big Deal.

The most recent blog post mentions Dynamic Pricing as well.

That would be great. I own a lot of the Resources in this Bundle (for example the WBC). Would love to see the discount :-D
Interesting: When I add it to my Shopping Cart, it says I get Academic Discount worth $300. Is the $300 discount is available to all? If so I don't think this is fair. If I understood correctly there is some real limitations to buying resources with academic discount (i.e. cannot transfer books to others and unable to sell books at a later stage). Could someone from Logos please help me here?

Hello everyone. We made an unfortunate internal mistake when building out the June promotion. We will have the Nelson Bible Reference Bundle on sale, but it's a fixed royalty product that we're never able to offer Dynamic Pricing on.
Our apologies for the inconvenience. We're working on fixing the product configuration now so everyone sees, and can purchase at, the sale price. We'll also be updating our messaging around this promotion.
We're happy to help anyone make the best purchase possible on these products. If we can help in any way, don't hesitate to call us at (800) 875-6467.
As a side note, anyone who has registered and qualifies for Academic pricing will be offered the "better deal" if there is a scenario where we have to determine if a sale price is lower than an academic price. The system is already configured to do this for you. We don't combine Academic Discounts with Dynamic Pricing. If a sale price is equal to an Academic price, and you want to ensure you're getting the product with out Academic limitations, I'd suggest calling to ensure the product is configured correctly for you.

Okay, so this just takes us back to the conclusion we came to in the other thread. It is what it is, but these fixed royalty arrangements have the very nasty side-effect of keeping folks from purchasing product when they're pumped and primed to do so. I have much of this already but was considering topping off. However, as I said before, the locked price means Nelson won't be getting my coin.
Eh, c'est la vie.

It is weird that the Nelsons 501 book bundle does give dynamic pricing while the 200 book bundle does not.
My price for the 501 book bundle is dynamically priced at $664 which shows the folly of buying the 200 book bundle if you have a large library until they dynamically price.

I hope Logos will quickly beef up its "New to You" feature and get it distributed to more collections and bundles asap. I would like to see what I would get with the 501 upgrade, but I'm not about to waste an hour or two trying to figure it out.

I agree.
Regarding the 200 Bundle: I am out too! Quite sad, really.
