Bump! The first of these is available in Kindle (link added). The other is not in Kindle but is a print-on-demand book from IVP with whom Logos has a relationship, so it should be possible to get it. No excuse for ignoring this request for nearly seven years.
The Wisdom of Proverbs, Job & Ecclesiastes, Derek Kidner (IVP) Ecclesiastes: Ancient Wisdom When All Else Fails: A New Translation and Interpretive Paraphrase, T.M. Moore (IVP)

Well, if they think it won't sell... especially now that their standards for what they'll add to the Pre-Pub program are higher.
What's your argument that it will sell and that FL will make money on it?

I didn't realize it was my responsibility to make sure they will make money on it before I demand that they put it in their format for me. ;-)
They've already got a lot of Derek Kidner books, so they obviously think he's an author worth carrying (though maybe that was before their standards got stricter; I've been off the forums for several months so I must have missed reading about that change in policy).
This particular book is #60 on Kindle among Wisdom Literature books. I would say that's a risk worth taking.
As for the other one, perhaps not so much. They don't carry any books by T.M. Moore yet, and that one of his is only #490 in Bible Study & Reference > Meditations > Old Testament on Kindle. But it is not a book to yawn at. It was the recipient of a 2002 Christianity Today Award of Merit.
I don't make book suggestions lightly, usually.
[:-P] I don't want to challenge your suggestions; I was just looking to see them made stronger.
It was noted by at least one FL employee in the aftermath of the Great Pre-Pub Cull that internal cases for carrying something had to be made, and well, now.
I know. Me too.
