Community Pricing Progression?

I was wondering if someone could tell me if there was a way for me to check to see how quickly some of my items on CP are progressing. Some have been there for way over a year and I was wanting to know if they are getting any closer or if I should give up on certain ones.

I am aware of the option of sorting by progress. Hoping for something more concrete than that.

This is an ongoing topic for Logos users. There simply is no way, it takes as long as it takes and there are many variables outside one's control to influence any thing in CP or PrePub. Have patience and it may take years for something to progress through Community Pricing.

Since you know the "sort by progress", there's not much you can do beyond looking at the items from time to time to know their status. AFAIK there is no feature such as an automated RSS feed or mail that tells you the percentage, going price and any movements in a regular interval or upon changes (maybe that's an idea for further website development). In the case of high-interest resources such as the "Classic Commentaries" users did this with manual lists.

The point is that Logos sometimes re-assess their development cost for a resource and in this case the percentage reached may jump considerably. Another thing is active promotion (forum posts, or submitting a guest post fo Logos Blog) - you definitely would help the resource you are waiting for when you inform others about why this CP is relevant, so more people come aboard.

Try this link: http://www.logos.com/products/search?Status=Community+Pricing&sort=progress&unlocked=yes. It includes only the items you've bid on, which is much easier than paging and scrolling through lots of stuff you haven't.

If what you're after is a projected crossover date, I'm afraid we don't have much to offer you right now. It's too unpredictable. If you're eager to see something move more quickly, feel free to reach out to us and see what you can do to help create some interest (e.g., you could perhaps guest post on the Logos blog).

While it's challenging to wait patiently for your favorite products to make it, I'd discourage you from canceling your bid. Most product will eventually make it, given enough time.
