Subject: Your Favorite, Best Quality Bible? |
Bible Note: Hank: I have this very same Bible. I agree the leather is soft and the quality of the paper and printing is the best quality I have ever seen. But, the cover on my Bible was put on off center, and one side has one fourth of an inch more over lap than the otherside. Also the printing on the back is not even close to being centered. I called Foundation, and was told these Bibles are as close to hand made as possible, and every Bible is looked at very carefully. They said they could do nothing! Even the Lemstone Book store manager agreed this was not what a onehundred fifty dollar Bible should look light. The store owner had ordered a thinline calif skin Bible from Foundation for someone, and when it came in the leather was soft and the brand was still on the front of the Bible. She sent it back. I have never spent this much for a Bible. I always buy leather Bibles, and most generally Bible publishers warranty their Bibles for a good lenght of time. Zondervan warranties their leather Bibles for lifetime, and they replaced for me a Life Application Study Bible NASB, and told me to give the old one to someone who needed one. I was very pleased. However I would never buy another Foundation Bible, as they do not stand behind the quality when it is poor workmanship. I use the Bible, but not near as often, the situation was unpleasent, and when I use it it bothers me to remember this experience. This brings me to a question when we as Christians run into the kind of situation such as the one I just told you about, what is the better way to resolve issues when the business is a world leader in the Bible production? I would really like to know, as this has been a thorn in my side. Justme |
