Okay...here's the deal. If you happen to be the first person to encounter a CP, please proceed with caution--and remember that you could end up wasting a lot of people's money with a haphazard or thoughtless click.

Many CPs close at the $2 per title range. Only special kinds of resources require higher bids. There is no reason on earth that a $30-something dollar bid should be placed for 8 piddly commentaries. The bidding process will actually go much, much faster if a lower bid is placed because far more people will see the CP as a deal that's too good to pass up. And, best of all, it saves people money. There's nothing noble about bidding higher--Bob has said more than once he doesn't care how low the price is as long as the cost is covered. GO WITH THAT!

The price to bid on this is $19. If enough people will bid $19 dollars now on this, before the sheep herd mindlessly bids up the current peak, we can get a new, cheaper peak established and get this into production ASAP. There are some interesting titles here, especially the one that compares the MT and LXX texts. Also, the first book in the collection, written by a Jewish author, bears promise, as well. This package is worth having, but it's worth even more if we can all save more in the process. Please bid $19.

    For the sake of comparison, look at the recent Classic Daniel Upgrade. The first person to bid on this CP bid correctly and the peak started in the right place. See how it is priced at under $2 per volume and it has already started to get a good peak? That is what this Hosea CP needs to get some traction.

    Bid $19 on Hosea!

    Also, remember the $2 rule!! It works and saves us all money.

    While I have not bid on this, I will continue to use my bidding strategy which is very simple ... I bid the highest that I personally am willing to pay and let others do the same. I am convinced that many items would meet their goal faster if people ignored the current "predicted price" and simply bid what the item is worth to them.
