Yesterday was the anniversary of George Muller's birth. In honor of this important man's life of faith, we put together a collection of his works and of books about him and posted it on Community Pricing. Check it out and place your bid if you're interested: http://www.logos.com/communitypricing/details/5683.
Phil,
I've noticed that there's no "suggested bid" on this one as there has been for others. Is that an oversight or just an abandoned practice of something that didn't work anyways?
Well considering the Logos user base is heavy on the preacher side, it could be detrimental to suggest a bid amount.
Preachers will always bid lower than they think it is worth, forever looking for that bargain. Knowing this, Logos could suggest an artificially high bid to compensate. Then the rest of us see that high amount and shy away from bidding.
When you look at the progress bar it tells you something of the projected production costs. George Müller Collection $90Aquinas' Catena Aurea $40NT for English Readers $36Most successfully end at around the 40% mark. They then go to a higher Pre-Pub price, followed by a higher Sale price. That's why we grab them as early as we can!

Guilty as charged, though I did consider the number of pages in this one and bid a bit higher because I can see it's a large collection.
We actually stopped including a suggested bid a while ago. We thought it was sufficient to give you the range, and then let the community decide. Typically our suggested bid would just be the middle of the range, but history shows that it always goes much lower than that.

edit: double posted, sorry.
Thanks Phil for the info. My hope is that our American friends know who he is, to quickly send his work into production.
Ted.
Almost there! If some more people would just bid at the $18 mark it should go through soon!
