A product on your wish list is on sale!

Yep! Sorry to be cryptic in my initial post, I was interrupted. New email when wish list items go on sale is great.

Yes, I received a similar email this morning.

I got this email, too.

Were you able to easily tell which of your wish list items are on sale? I'm guessing it's the items with a red price, but there were a dozen or more such items so-priced in my wish list. Seems like it could have been more clearly marked (or even mentioned in the email itself).

My email included the text ".Simply visit your wish list and look for the red price."

So the red price is the thing to look out for.

I did not receive that email, and I don't notice any special discounts. There are some typical ones (1% off Luther!), so it makes me think that perhaps if your Wish List lines up with their Monthly Sale, they're going to start to let you know about it.

If so, that will be wonderful.

Glad Logos is sending notifications for item(s) on sale in wishlists. I wish the wishlist allowed me to remove items on it, however.

It does. There's a "Date Added" for each item. Hover your mouse over that date and it will turn to a link named "Remove". If it's not there, then you might want to consider trying another browser. If it still doesn't work, start a new thread in the forums and ask dev to look into the problem.

Glad you all are pleased with the wish list email notification. The Development Team has been notified about the wish list issues. They're working on it.

That is great news indeed. Unfortunately, I have not yet received one of those emails but maybe soon....[:)]

I don't think it's personalized discounts, but things that are on sale that are in your wish list is what triggers the email. You can see the sale items by Browsing all products, sorting by Savings, and Filtering out just the Live products (excluding pre-pubs and community pricing). Except I notice that that list does not include the Calvin collection which is on significant discount from my wish list. Hmm, oddity:

http://www.logos.com/products/search?q=calvin+collection (no discount shown)

http://www.logos.com/product/5170/calvin-500-collection (discount shown)

Unfortunately, I have not yet received one of those emails but maybe soon....

Your wish list isn't long enough. Mine is loooong.

It may not be long but it sure is expensive! I went and counted that I currently have 34 items listed. Is that short?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/516743#Comment_516743

I wish I was as restrained. I have 6 wish lists with 116 total items. Many I will probably never buy, but I add them when I see something interesting mentioned on the forums or accidentally chance across something. I divide them by how important they are:

Cart - Everything in wish list "Cart" I want now.
Wish List - When I get the money
Mega Wish List - When I get the money and got nothing else to do with it (over half are here)
Author Bundles - These are on the same level as (2) Wish List, but I keep them separate for organizing them
and 6. Are misc commentaries. Eg. single volumes from sets that have been replaced by newer volumes but which I might still want to check out.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/516750#Comment_516750

Randy, how do you keep track of the 6 lists?

Since I have Academic Pricing, nearly everything in my Wish List is red, thus making it difficult to determine if anything is an especially good deal. Would it be safe to assume that Academic Pricing is still a better deal than I'd receive in this sale? It does vary...the Back-to-School Sale has several items that are a better deal than Academic Pricing, but then others are not.

**************BREAKING*************************BREAKING****************************BREAKING********************

I still haven't received an email, but I do note that 3 items (count them: one, two, three) are in red. Oh well, the Aramaic Bible (and other pre-pubs) drained me this month.

Nothing on my tiny wish list (11 items) is red. I did not receive an email. The email is probably linked to the sales items...

Also, I can not remove items from my wish list, the remove label show up, just nothing happens.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/516755#Comment_516755

Randy, how do you keep track of the 6 lists?

Not well. Actually, I don't. I mainly just keep up with my Cart wish list. Every month or so I'll find myself in my wish lists, going through it again and shuffling things around as my studies advance and new things become important/interesting. But mainly I just track that one list of about 18 items.

It is making more sense to me. Do you actually have 6 separate lists then or just in your head?

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/516790#Comment_516790

Yeah, they are all in separate lists. I can't remember the new scheme for linking to public lists, but it looks like this: (I wish we could reorder the lists and the items within the lists.)

I honestly didn't realize that you could make different lists. That opens up a whole world of opportunities that will probably result in me spending more money. Those Logos marketing folks are doing their job.

I have three "red" items in my wish list (the highest discount being 20%). I have not seen anywhere (in the forums, at least) saying anything about how long these prices will be valid. Does anyone else have an "on sale 'til this date" notification?

I wanted to add a sale item to my Wish List to see if the red tag would pop up, but when I try to click on Add to Wish List for the item, nothing happens. I tried this with 2 resources - no luck.

They've been working this morning trying to get things back up. Currently, most Wish List functionality is not working.

I just checked into my "red" wish list. Here is one item currently on my list -

Göttingen Septuagint (67 vols.)

by 7 Authors

The Göttingen Septuagint represents the largest Septuagint project ever undertaken. Published between 1931 and 2006, the Göttingen Septuagint contains the most authoritative critical apparatus of the Greek Old Testament ever assembled. Combining textual evidence from countless manuscripts and ancient sources—including Philo, Josephus, and the Greek Church Fathers—the Göttingen Septuagint is the most detailed and elaborate critical edition of the Septuagint ever published.less ... more

$655.37

Reg.: ~~$699.95~~

Save: $44.58 (6%)

BUT...this is not the best sale that is currently being offered. Specifically this item is currently offered on the Back to School Sale for much less -

Göttingen Septuagint (67 vols.)
Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
Reg: $699.95
Sale: $359.95

So...I would suggest that a bit more work may be needed by Logos to include the best sale when items come up on our wish lists.Now I have to figure out if I have the cash to actually get this great deal but that is another issue.

Hi Bruce,

Have you looked at this Logos resource:

Septuagint with Logos Morphology

May be helpful at a lower price point.

I believe there's two major sales going on right now:

the monthly sale for August, http://www.logos.com/products/search?Product+Type=Monthly+Product+Sale, which -- not surprisingly -- ends when the month ends, and
the Back to School Sale, http://www.logos.com/backtoschool, which ends September 13.

I already have that one but thanks for the advice Steve. I think I would like the Göttingen but not sure I will use it enough to justify the price.

The Add to Wish List link now works, so I added the Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary to see if it would display with a red tag, since it's on sale through September 13, but all that displays is the regular price and no red tag.

I think that there are still issues with how this works. As I expressed above I would recommend that Logos adjust the settings on the wish list to include the best sales available at the time.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/517066#Comment_517066

I think the difference is that it's not setup to take into account items that require a coupon code.

I think you're right...or at least, I was thinking the same thing.

It would not surprise me to find out that they have a program that simultaneously changes your Wish List to show the price of the sale (attaching the coupon code to your wish list, basically) and emails you to go take a look.

That would mean that if you add an item after this program runs, you would not see the price change in your Wish List and you wouldn't get the new email.

I got the email about the Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary sale (with the coupon code) without yet having the resource in my Wish List. So their system knows it sent me the email. I guess it needs more tweaking.

There is a way to kind of pull this off, though it's not nearly as seamless. You could create an Amazon Wish List and then place the Logos items on it. I created an example for fun: http://amzn.com/w/33AIKCQ37M0QS

You can place non-Amazon items on an Amazon Wish List if you install a browser extension [Chrome, Firefox]. Whoever looks through your list will still need to call Logos sales and use your email address, but it would work.
