One final push for George Muller

I have noticed recently that whenever a community pricing book crosses the 100% mark the price quickly starts to fall. I am guessing it is because the people with bids under the price that crossed the mark, up their's to get in before the deadline.

Why wait folks? Muller is about to cross the finish line. Raise that bid now and let's move it over 100%

It is awesome to think we could get this collection for $18. Based on previous experience, it will go even lower once we get to the one week countdown.

And a nice graphic to support your analysis. Let's go! It's inched up there this week!

Based on previous experience, it will go even lower once we get to the one week countdown.

Well that one week countdown would not frequently happen. We might get as little as 48 hours.

Here's the rule:

"On the next Friday that is at least two days (48 hours) from the first
time a title's production costs are covered, Community Pricing will end
for that title and pre-orders will be confirmed at the current best
price." See: http://www.logos.com/communitypricing/about

So if Mueller crosses the line anytime after next Wednesday at noon Pacific, it would close out over a week later on Friday. If it crosses the line before then we only get until this coming Friday to get extra orders in to lower the price. Strategy wise we would like the most time possible after it cross the 100% line. So if we get it over Saturday we have almost six days to get the price down.

Let's get this one (and Scougal) over the line!

I tend to think that many, many Logos users would be thrilled to purchase this set for $18, or $15 (here's hoping)... I wonder why Logos prefers not to use their Logos Newswire / email announcements to advertise these... guess because at this point they are just trying to cover costs?

In any case, I've been in on this package ever since I learned about Community Pricing.

I agree Scott. I'm not sure why the newswires aren't normally used for community pricing, but surely they should make an exception for Muller!

George Muller Resources almost at 100% on Community Pricing! http://www.logos.com/communitypricing/details/5683

George Muller - Illustration

If we could look behind the unexpected events in our lives, we would be amazed to see God wonderfully providing for our needs. The insignificant turns in the road, the seemingly unimportant events, the often unexplained happenings—all are part of God’s loving care.

His gracious providence is also evident in the tangible provisions of life. In Bristol, England, George Muller operated an orphanage for two thousand children. One evening he became aware that there would be no breakfast for them the next morning. Muller called his workers together and explained the situation. Two or three prayed. “Now that is sufficient,” he said. “Let us rise and praise God for prayer answered!”

The next morning they could not push open the great front door. So they went out the back door and around the building to see what was keeping it shut. Stacked up against the front door were boxes filled with food. One of the workers later remarked, “We know Who sent the baskets, but we do not know who brought them!”

The dot for mueller is starting to touch the 100 percent line. I would say we just need like 10 or 15 more people. Let's get it done.

Let me push

Catena Aurea: Commentary on the Four Gospels by Thomas Aquinas (8
Vols.)

again. It is at 60% there are EIGHT!!!! volumes of Early Church Fathers comments on the first 4 books of the NT. At only 2.50 a volume this is a steal!!! Lets get this one done too....

George Mueller--You can't get much closer without crossing the line! SO LET'S PUSH THIS PUPPY OVER!!!!

WHAT a wonderful, searchable, faith-building, illustration-laden set this will be for a few more wise and eager Logos users!

OK, I finally signed on. I'm not really all that interested in the collection. He was an interesting man for sure, but one bio of him would be sufficient for me. However if it's only going to be $18 (or less) I figured I could do this for the benefit of my brothers and sisters who so desperately want the collection. My order still didn't push it over the line, though.

I did the same. I may find it useful. I encourage others to do the same.

I just increased my bid from $18 to $21 - maybe if some other people did the same it would nudge it over the line?

Hi David

Nice try but bids over $18 will count as $18 so we need those with the bids below $18 to raise their bids.

David, raising your bid from $18 to $21 will only raise the dot on the chart at $21. It means you've added to the number of people willing to pay $21 or more for it so consequently Logos is that much closer to reaching 100% of those required to be able to produce it at $21 per copy (which that dot represents). But you haven't changed the number of people willing to pay $18 or more for it, so that dot won't have gone up any on the chart. Raising the dot for $21 is somewhat helpful, but in this case not as helpful as getting more people to be willing to pay $18, because we're much closer to going over the threshold at $18 than we are at $21, so it will only take a few more people to raise their bids to push it across the line.

Thank you for the explanation Rosie, now I understand (I think [:D]) It does seem frustrating though that being prepared to pay more than the price at which it looks to be touching the line is not going to actually push it over

I have found that the best policy is to think about what you are willing to pay, rather than what you will pay. If it goes for a lower price, you will get it. If it goes for a higher price, you will not - unless you raise your bid during the grace period.

Funny. It looks like at 100% it still won't go over! Or it's just 99.99999999%. Or perhaps it's like chasing a dog, once you get closer, it gets further! I recommended to some of my friends that have not yet purchased a base package library but are planning on it in the future, to at least download the software engine for free, and place some Pre-Pub orders that are amazing deals such as Andrew Fuller's works and others, but especially George Muller's work on community pricing, because I think this one is going to become quite expensive for those that miss out on the deal, especially those that see it after it's off of Community Pricing, especially after it's off Pre-Pub. I think some of them did do what I recommended and get an Essential Bible Study Library until they save up for a Base Package. Place your bid for Muller if you don't want to miss out on a tremendous deal.

it's just 99.99999999%

Its about this time that someone from Logos posts "Just x more bidders to move it over the line" where X is around 4-10.

How about it Logos, care to comment and not have curiosity kill that cat?

If you've ever read George Mueller you will know this is one of the best deals going. Maybe they'll consider doing the works of Hudson Taylor as well. I bid $54 and would have gladly paid more. If you're not familiar with him check out this website: http://www.mullers.org/cm/ If you've read Spurgeon's autobiography you will find that George, Charles and Hudson Taylor were close friends who met often in Mentone, France when Spurgeon would go there to escape the pain of his gout. He determined to study the bible alone and not use commentaries only language and historical helps. His work is being continued in Bristol to this day. You will not be disappointed. http://www.christianbook.com/robber-cruel-streets-prayerful-george-muller/pd/009391

Anyone at the $12 mark wanting to bid at least $3 more for a chance to get the Muller's work for $15? At noon this Friday will be TOO LATE! Go to $18 to gurantee a purchase.

I noticed that Mueller is still accepting bids at $15 - don't know if LOGOS will accept them, but transactions are still being recorded by the automated system.

This was my first venture into CP and to say I'm now hooked would be an understatement. I think I've jumped into everything within CP now. Think I've turned into a "sale shopper" who buys anything and everything just because of the savings. My worst nightmare.

Think of it rather as being a wise investor who gets in when the price is low. [:)]
