Choice: Prepubs or Happy Wife
I had to make a decision today between my wife having major dental surgery ($1800) or following through with my numerous prepub orders.
I tried to convince my wife that I should get to purchase almost $2000 in books, but she didn't go for that. So, I will have to get the resources at a later date.
I am keeping those I bought off the Community Pricing page - but the one that hurts the most is the Anchor Yale Bible Reference Library.
By the way, it wasn't really a hard decision - I am blessed with the wife I have. Last year she was understanding when I upgraded to Platinum and purchased the NIC at the same time.
Just wanted to share.

May the Lord bless you. My wife has also been long-suffering and patient with my long list of purchases. Here is hoping the release gets delayed or offered on a payment plan. Is that hoping for too much?.
Maybe the 12 Days of Logos sale will culminate with a "snag your biggest wish at the Pre-Pub price" sale. I'm full of ideas.
Good call Ron.
Logos 7 Collectors Edition
It is certain;y MY favorite. While she was posting that, I was sitting in the same room clicking away as fast as I can to create a snapshot to take advantage of Dan's Plan. I am 2/3rds done and I can quote a famous line from Ringo Starr and mean it. At the end of the 26 minute first take of "Helter Skelter" we hear Ringo scream, "I've got blisters on my fingers!" Who'd 've known mouse clicking could hurt?If my hubby's happy, I'm happy...This is likely to be voted the most popular posting on the Logos Forum for the decade. (Of course, it will be mostly men voting for it.)
If you use G00gle translate, Nina's quote in French is "Carte Blanche" [:P] (& Nina uses the French pronunciation of her name)

........j/k, If my hubby's happy, I'm happy...
I'm very happy!! My Christmas 2010 Master Collection will keep a smile on my face for a long time.
Thanks to:
Mr. & Mrs. Dale Pritchett for everything (including having those two creative genius boys.)
Bob Pritchett for creating Logos.
Dan Pritchett for insane marketing ideas.
Dave Kaplan for convincing me "we can do it!"
& most of all my wife, Nina, for wanting her hubby to be happy!
Hope everyone has a blessed holiday time.

I let my wife know last night that she had bought me the NICOT/NICNT set for Christmas. I thanked her very much. [<:o)]
So, I will have to get the resources at a later date.
Perhaps Dan Pritchett's offer on this thread might help you: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/24112.aspx?PageIndex=1

I don't know why Logos doesn't just lower their prices on all books to make them more affordable. We are living in tough times. People are losing their jobs. Everyday low(er) pricing will lead to more sales in the long run. When prices are too high, people don't buy. Plus, it can't be good for Logos when people cancel their pre-orders and they are on the hook for the balance. It does no good to have a library of 10,000 books if people can't afford them.

hmmmm, only responding to your actual thread title:
= buy Pre-pubs and meet Jesus sooner! (that is great gain, according to Paul!)
I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.
Ronald,
You did the right choice. But according to my math you may still have ~$200 worth of books to get!
