It's ok Stephen.
you should keep them for the purpose God had you get them for. I have some NT KJV's and have given them out too. the problem is most want a complete Bible. Can you blame them? What we need is complete Old and New Testaments for our church and outreaches. we are teaching through the Bible very difficult when you only have the NT. there is such a droght of them here. amazing how the other versions are so plentiful. but not the KJV |

Anyone have suggestions on where I might find a good deal on decent quality Bibles? EDIT: Are Gift/Award Bibles ok? The Holman Gift and Award Bibles look ok. Peace and Love, Stephen Last edited by stephanos; 09-14-2008 at 10:49 PM. |

I have found that alot of Gift and Award bibles the binding is not very good. I have a friend that can print bibles for around $2 a piece but currently needs $2000 for a broken part. Here is his web address www.bibles4free.com God bless.

Brother Ruckman's site offers a case of 24 paperback Bibles, shipped, for $98.00:

If each of us could send $10.00, we could probably get a least a case of them for Brother Chette. |

Aloha sister Here Am I, Have you seen and handled these Bibles? We (our church) are looking for Bibles to send to brother Chette and to brother Sammy (Biblestudent) {both in the Philippines}, but we don't want to send them Bibles that start to fall apart in a couple of months. I am curious about the "quality" of the Bibles you have mentioned, perhaps you have personally seen them and handled them? We are looking for "the most bang for the buck", and realize that we can't expect too much for the price. But on the other hand, we would rather spend a little more money for a Bible that will hold up for a few years (even if it means less Bibles) than send something half-way around the world that may not hold up for very long. Please don't get me wrong! I have no idea as to the "quality" of the Bibles you have mentioned, and hope that you might know enough about them or others to give us a recommendation. Thanks for the information. |

Brother George, I never have handled or seen these Bibles, but I thought that the Bible Baptist Bookstore is known for quality. It would seem contrary to purpose to offer Bibles in bulk, for missionary work, if they were just going to fall apart after some usage.
I suppose I could call them. |

I will do that (call them - possibly tomorrow). I greatly appreciate the info and just thought you might have seen them. I believe that they are trustworthy, so I will ask them the same questions I asked you. Again, thanks for your input. |

We Were very surprised to find 10 pieces of Bibles in our PO Box. well they weren't in it but the slip for them were. They stopped all their stupid customs charges and now charge only about a $1 to get boxes like this one no tax on Bibles
So special thanks to the brethren in Oklahoma who sacrificed so we could have even just few pieces of Bibles. Blessings to you all. |
