Did any of you get it? Is it worth it? It is about $2500 for me to upgrade. Should I go for it or use that money for items like Baylor Handbook Series?
Thanks.
That’s entirely up to you! If you need all the content Collector offers go for it, but if you’ll benefit from buying premium hand picked resources instead, then use your money on those. Bigger library doesn’t always mean better.

At some point a bigger package is so cheap it's got value enough to buy for what you would use. That's when you buy it. But you aren't going to use a lot of stuff that otherwise would make for days of weeding out if you wanted to curate it all. I simply choose to corral what I do use and ignore what I don't.
I think I overspent when I upgraded to L10, but the packages I bought still came to less than the regular price of the single Mobile Ed course I added to my library that came with it. Deal![8-|]
Only you can decide that. Add up the individual costs of all of the resources that you consider "must have," and then look at the cost of the package. If the cost of the package is less than the cost of the individual "must have" resources, then it's worth it to you. You can consider the other resources as bonus gifts!
Joseph is spot on. There have even been occasions for me where it has been less expensive to buy a bundle then the individual resource or series that I'm wanting.
I was able to get every single Logos/Verbum base package (including Verbum and Logos Ultimates) for less than the dynamic pricing of Eerdmann's Ultimate Package, which has been on my wishlist forever. Despite it being a large purchase, I was very happy with the number of useful books I got.
Thank you all. Helpful stuff to help me think!
for me its a strong maybe. There is so much good stuff in there. One question you'll have to answer is does the value of the things I want, exceed their purchase prices individually or in other bundles. If yes, then yes. Secondly, is it going to bother you to have books you disagree with, or books that from your perspective are repugnant? If yes then you've got a lot of work ahead of you. But if you're wise, you'll know the heretics sometimes ask interesting questions, and that possessing something you disagree with, doesn't mean you have to agree with its positions. I say, if the value is there, go for it. It makes L11 packages cheaper due to dynamic pricing :P.
Yes! And it does make L11 cheaper haha.
