If you bought the Learn to use Biblical Hebrew and Greek Videos, do you think the Learn To Do Word Studies will be helpful? or do you think it will be a rehash only on a more basic level?
Good question, i don't know. Logos will be in a better position to answer your question, and like you i am interested in finding out.

Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software is designed to be a first step, a prequel to the more advanced Learn to Use Biblical Greek and Hebrew with Logos Bible Software. It's that first bridge to cross on the path toward understanding the Greek and Hebrew underlying the biblical texts. The course is also quite useful to those who have some experience using Strong's Numbers and desire to expand their skills in Greek and Hebrew word studies.
While Learn to Use Biblical Greek and Hebrew with Logos Bible Software included a section on word studies, Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software presents more simplified word study methods and does not present tools or methods for working with Greek and Hebrew grammar. Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software therefore aims to be more accessible to the user who has no background at all in Greek and Hebrew.
So, if you've bought the learn to Use Greek and Hebrew videos the Word Study videos will be a step backwards.
Noted introduction video Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software description "step by step" approach for several Greek and Hebrew word studies using basic and intermediate approaches.
For Hebrew, can compare first 20 minutes of Hebrew03-WordStudy video ( from Learn to Use Biblical Greek and Hebrew with Logos Bible Software ) with Hebrew basic and intermediate word study snippets on Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software (compare and contrast ברא discussion; noted Hebrew03-WordStudy video discussion includes comments about 7 lexicons vis 1 shown in snippets, yet snippets shows ברא usage distribution in Old Testament that is not in advanced Hebrew03-WordStudy video plus snippets have slides showing interpretive questions).
For Greek, snippet on Learn to Do Word Studies with Logos Bible Software has same 3 steps as Greek31-WordStudy video with snippet referring to Learn to Use Biblical Greek and Hebrew with Logos Bible Software for morphological tagging that needs grammatical background. The Greek31-WordStudy video focuses on studying σημεῖον "signs", anticipating Word Studies having several (at least 3) basic and intermediate studies, which could be enhanced with grammatical insights (advanced gathering of information).
By the way, older Learn to Use Biblical Greek and Hebrew with Logos Bible Software videos have "Interlinear" button that morphed in a later Logos 4 release to Interlinear Pane button (and "Display" button added). Also, Greek Word Study was last video (# 31) while Hebrew Word Study video (# 3) preceded grammatical videos. Grammatical usage provides nuanced contextual insights (expressive range of action).

In some ways it sounds like this will be a "step backwards", but it in another way that it may give more details. I'm still not sure if I want to follow through with this purchase and it is shipping today.
I'm wondering what are others doing - purchasing or canceling?

I've canceled my order. I've been using the Learn Logos webinars and I don't thing its much different then the Learn to do word studies. So it didn't make sense to pay $70 for something that cost me $5!
