The Writings and Sermons of Jonathan Edwards (10 vols.) is currently at an interesting price on CP.

It's at 90% and $60, and also at 80% and $36. So, if enough interest could be generated, the price could be almost half of where it is now. Seems like a bargain at $36. If you agree, please tell your friends.

It is interesting,  but will take a lot more people to sign up to make up the missing 20% for the $36 price than it will for the 10% required to hit the $60 price.

e.g. if the total cost of production was $1000, either 10 people  @ $100 each or 100 people @ $10 each would meet the funding requirement. Now lets say we are at 90% on the $100 price point, that would mean 9 out of the 10 required have signed up and will to pay up to $100 and only one more is required to sign up and commit to paying up to $100.  At the same time we 80% of the required number of people prepared to pay up to $10 have signed up, that is 80 out of the 100 required and so another 20 people have to put up their hand and say they are will to pay up to $10.  

Note the number of people who have said they are willing to pay up to $100 are included in the number of people willing to pay up to $10.and would be those people who have said they are willing to pay up to $50, so people dropping their bid to $10 would not change the fact another 20 individuals still need to sign up and be willing to pay up to $10. On the other hand if one person who was willing to pay $90 increased their bid and said they were willing to pay $100, the funding target would be reached and and the project would proceed at $100 per person.

I am really surprised that there is not more interest in this.  I am a Wesleyan - Arminian, and I am in.  Where are all my Calvinist brothers and sisters? 

Maybe they got the following as part of Reformed Diamond or higher base packaged and feel they have enough Edwards for now / or are planning on upgrading to one of these base packages.

Also their is the older Banner of Trust Select Works of Edwards that many might have:

The question is what is in this CP title that makes it unique to what people might already have in the above.

From a price point of view,  I hope this collection does get over the line at the lower prices so for those that can not afford the more expensive package above and want more Edwards can purchase it at a more affordable price.

Certainly interesting not only from a Calvinist perspective. Maybe especially interesting from a non Calvinist perspective, as I don't any respective base package, and only own one single resource by Edwards.

I'm in at $36. Having doubt whether it's worth it? Look up Edwards in the Topic Guide. Here's something to start with: https://biblia.com/books/encycchap/offset/1105585 

It's over the line at $60.

Let's get more votes in at $36.

Bidding ends on 10 March. Six more days left.

I'm in at $36, but I'd like to see it go lower.

Everyone in at $42 is in the numbers showing for $39 and for $36 so I think it would require a lot more than that to shift the numbers Dale.

I'm not sure how this works, but it looks like if everyone who is in at $36 would bump up to $39 or $42, it would drop down to that price. How does the math work on this?

I got the Works of Jonathan Edwards recently: https://www.logos.com/product/15471/the-works-of-jonathan-edwards as part of a base package upgrade. 

Which is great for those who can afford that particular base package..there are those hoping this gets across the line for at $36 or lower for those who can't afford a base package at that price.
