Great find.
For those who are mathematically-challenged (I am one of them, but I do know how to push keys on a calculator. ha), that works out to 44 cents each. These "BE" books are sometimes offered at 99 cents, which I consider to be a really good price. Even though they occasionally appear for free, I sometimes jump on one that I find at the 99-cent price point.
I checked Amazon (I prefer the mobi format over the ePub format) in the hope that they would be the same price as Christianbook, but the bundle there is $6.15. Still a really good price, working out to 68 cents each! However, I am a
penny-pincher (someone said that I could squeeze Lincoln off of a penny, I take that as a compliment. ha).
Will Amazon drop their price to match Christianbook's, as they sometimes do? I wish that I knew. I am almost afraid not to go ahead and grab Christianbook's offer, in case the deals were to expire before I acted.
There is one other concern that I have. I am concerned that when I buy a bundle, I will overlook the bundle or forget what is in it, and when an ebook that I already have in a bundle appears, separately, on sale at a great price again, I will re-buy it. I usually do searches of my libraries--Amazon's, Christianbook's, Kobo's, B&N's,
ad nauseam--by
title, not by author (searching by title probably would not reveal the individual title contained within a bundle; searching by author would reveal the presence of the bundle, containing the individual title). Maybe you or some other intelligent Mobilereader can give a solution to this conundrum.
