Well, how about we focus on Waltke and O'Connor's Intro to Biblical Hebrew Syntax, since it disappeared from March Madness?

Or something else that won't ever go on sale AND costs more, like the Zondervan Illustrated Bible Background Commentary on the OT?

[Y] Did it.

I would love to see the New International Commentary OT/NT be discounted!!! Going back through the forums, I saw that this got marked down during the 12 days of Christmas sale last year, but I had just become aware of Logos and purchased a base package at that time, so I totally missed out on that sale. Being a student, $1,599 is a pretty hefty price, though I realize these are some pretty great commentaries.
good idea
Oops! Meant OT, linked to NT!

If the Zondervan books can be further discounted that would be nice....!
I "liked" the Zondervan OT set for you guys, we'll see what happens! My fb page is now full of logos product "likes", which my friends probably think is ridiculous lol, but hopefully it will pan out for some pretty sweet deals for us all. Thanks for the "like" help with the NICOT/NICNT! [Y]

Same here.
It will be interesting to see what kind of deals result from this.
Done!!!!!
Only 980-odd to go.
Are lots of Logos users not on Facebook? Reluctant to "like" individual products? Or just unaware of the sale?
Actually, I'm not on facebook and up till now had no inclination to do so. I'm giving away enough of my privacy (and hang around online) in forums.
So what's the deal? 50% off if there are 1.000 "likes" or so?
It is every 1,000 likes for a specific title brings about the 10% discount just for that title? or is it for every 1,000 likes in general (combined together from various titles) that brings a discount for this FaceBook sale? I was kind of thinking that it meant 1,000 likes overall (combined from various titles put together) that Logos would then select some of the more well liked titles to sell at a discount...maybe I'm wrong. If It is 1,000 likes for each specific title....that will be quite difficult to reach by April 2nd at the rate things are going lol...I don't think there are any titles/products with more than maybe 120 likes. hmmm.....I have still been posting the NICOT/NICNT on my facebook for all of my friends to "like", but it is still very far from 1,000 likes.
I'd venture to guess that it's somewhat all of the above...
The facebook sale looks to me like a mere advertising gimmick. I';m NOT going to clutter my page with lots of advertising for \Logos. Sorry.
Yes it is an advertising gimmick; what else? And C.S. Lewis would say there's nothing shameful about the adjective "mere."
I generally don't like advertising at all, let alone advertising methods that use friends. But I do like Logos, so I caved in a bit on my principles. However, I discovered I could remove the "Like" posts from my wall after I'd "Like"d the products mentioned above in this thread (to help other people; I already own them all). Hopefully they haven't ended up in several of my friends' news feeds before I removed them. I really don't know how all of that works.

This is how Logos does most of their advertising. They are always asking to post on our blogs, tweet, ... about their specials. While I like Logos, I NEVER do this because I feel like I am being used by Logos.
If something goes on sale because of this, will you refrain from buying it? To be consistent and all.
A sale like this is based on an increased exposure of the product, something social media is good at doing very easily. The more people who see the product = the more who can buy it, and when more are buying it, Logos can afford a better discount on that item.
Five items? The link above Word takes me to Tozer. Am I missing something?
I've got most of them except for the L4 Manual, Tozer and the Bible Speaks Today. I will probably pick up L4 Manual.
I'm not sure I understand your question. When I go to that Facebook page, I see 4 items on sale for 50% off the already low sale price, then another 5 items on sale for incredibly low prices, though not quite 50% off the sale price. And then a bonus item. Is that not what you're seeing? And where did you get the idea that it would be something else? Was there a promise of five items for 50% off that I'm forgetting about? (Can't see what the original sale page looked like anymore as it's been replaced.)
Yes, the item immediately above the Word commentaries (below the Tozer collection) which is just a banner (see graphic below) does appear to be linked to the Tozer page for some reason (probably a glitch in the HTML), but that's nothing material. Just wondering what you were expecting that you're not seeing.
I am not seeing the other five items, just Word.
That's weird. Are you seeing the 4 items above Word and just missing the 4 items below Word? Or are you only seeing Word period?
Try it in a different browser, just in case that has anything to do with it. I'm using Firefox and it displays the whole page with all items on it.
