Reformed Dogmatics, volume 4

I am wondering who has picked up volume 4 of Bavinck's Reformed Dogmatics and who got it for the best price?

No problem Nathan I'll certainly pick these up. I hear nothing but awesome things about him.

On second thought I'll take my wife with me to Banner, they have hospitals in Harrisburg...

In pounds isn't that the equivalent of less than $30?

It's $28 plus shipping to the UK, or $50 if he bought it there.

In pounds that's about 14 pounds+shipping, or 25 if he bought it there.

Not sure what the "equivalent of less than $30" means.

If I brought it in the UK it would cost £25, that is around $50, importing from USA costs $28 plus $7 shipping equals £18.

Those would be among the "Arminians who don't deserve to be mentioned by name." Although, I don't have Pannenburg, Brunner, or Grenz.

Thanks for mentioning them.

Praise God you didn't mention Pope or Thiessen....

Why would somebody vote for the third option? Hodge borrowed most of his material from Turretin. It seems, whether or not you would want Bavinck's dogmatics, you'd want to have Turretin's Elentics if you like Hodge.
