I feel like Logos always had more (better) resources on day 1 of the release date than day 2 or day 3 after the release date. I feel like they either removed resoures or swap the resources in the libraries they're selling due to the agreements with the publishers. So buying on day 1 is preferable than buying a week after.
I don't know exactly when they remove or exchange resources, but I remember my wishlist weren't matching, when I buy something, then I return it, then I rebuy something bigger. In between those time, I notice my wishlist changes in ownership. (as in I don't own ownership anymore after making a higher purchase changes)
So, waiting for Ultimate is a loss in better resources in my view, due to the changes Logos made without notifying us.
Not really normal, no. However, if I understood my sales rep correctly (and he understood those he spoke with correctly also) once the rest of the Verbum-esk packages are ready we "should" see the full Verbum Ultimate release AND see it rolled into the regular Ultimate as well. (I believe that is why it is not yet posted as being for sale but I can not prove that.)
Why SDA is not included I don't know. I could not get an answer to that question.
Glad to hear more Verbum packages are in the works.
@Mitch Snyder (Faithlife) - Will the new Verbum line be eligible for a 30% discount on the first library purchased once released?
We've typically had two versions available. The one listed online has all of the content (I'm aiming to have this available yet this week) and one that does not include SDA or Verbum which is available through our Sales team. As we've been waiting for a new line of Researcher libraries for Verbum we have not been able to release the full version yet. But as I say, we're very close and we will have them out in time to take advantage of the current promotion.
I’m not sure this “Ultimate version” is worth it to be honest. Having a large library makes it kind of hard to justify spending money on an ultimate package with not so great quality resources.

Wow, pretty tight on Verbum Researchers:

@Mitch Snyder (Faithlife) - Are there any updates on the timeline for the Verbum Researcher libraries (and Verbum Ultimate)?
If they arrive after the 30% discount expires, are there plans to make available a similar 30% first-buy promotion for those libraries?
Thanks for any updates you can provide!
@Kevin Clemens This link should show you the four Verbum Researcher options.
Thank you, @Mitch Snyder (Faithlife) - I appreciate the prompt response!
Well, we're only 2 days away from the 30%'s death. But looking at the Verbum Researcher, meh. The earlier Orthodox Platinum sort of fell-flat too. Either Logos/Verbum doesn't have much more to buy (I'm only a 6K'er, embarrassingly), or 'oh wow' packaging is pretty much done. AI is their middle name now.

I'm a bit hesitant to post this, because clearly the statement was made at a time when information was scarce and vague. But, as you can see from the comment below, it was indeed stated that Ultimate would be available for 2025 Libraries.
