King James or New King James Bible Delivered for $1 Donation @ Casey Baptist Church

9947

Update: Casey Baptist Church has been overloaded by the volume of orders. Will have to push the pause button. However, found another church that is doing the same thing:
https://www.australianstrictbaptists.au/free-bible

Apparently free religious text is not permitted on ozbargain. So I have a chat with the pastor at Casey Baptist church and he has placed a $1 price tag on these bibles so it's not free.

Request your KJV or NKJV hardcopy bible for a gold coin donation ($1)

Terms and conditions:

Australian addresses only

We will not send a Bible to third party addresses; by providing us with an address you are acknowledging that this is your residential address and that the Bible is first intended for you. You are free to pass it on once you receive it, but we will not send the Bible to someone else's address on your behalf

Your details will not be used for any purpose other than administering requests and for sending a copy of the Bible to you

Your full name is required for postage (which is free)

One Bible per household: we are sorry but we cannot supply multiple copies

Please allow up to 28 days for delivery

    interesting

    Gotta commend the effort to get the bible on ozbargain using a 'loophole' by charging for it.

    • They could've charged 10c for it rather than $1.

      • -5

        They should be paying us $1. On the other hand 10c is cheap for a bird cage liner for my budgie. Using 6 pages at a time it should last a couple of years.

  • +2

    A bargain is not a bargain anymore.

  • +37

    Charging for something that should be free just to circumvent the sites rules. This post should do well.

    • +5

      The church is paying for it so ozbargainers can get it dirt cheap.

      • +12

        You mean your congregation is paying for it 😂

        • 😆

        • Congratulations on working out how churches work. Brilliant.

          • @mickeyjuiceman: I'll take that sarcasm as thanks! 🤣

            Nah.. the congregation don't really pay for this. Lol. The church has other means.

      'Should be free' ?

      It's a $1 bible sent to your house when postage for them would be circa $10.

      The post below was an $8 bible on Amazon Prime which received 240 positive votes.

      No one is asking you to order this if you don't want it. The post will be useful for some people.

      Relax.

      (and I'm an atheist)

      • The one you linked is the ESV translation, and as far as I know, you can't request a free physical copy at any time you want.
        But you can with KJ/NKJ and other translations.

    • Whether or not it 'should' be free, it would seem easy enough to find a better deal than this elsewhere on the same item.

      This would mean this isn't a deal, and is just advertising.

  • +16

    Associated member has admitted to jacking the price from free to $1 in order to get around the posting rules, so no bargain here.
    Seems more like just using OzB for free adz.

  • +5

    Normally free - wow is this a bargain to be paying for it?

  • +4

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    I called this happening this morning

  • Cue cringe atheist screeching

    • -6

      Cue cringe God botherers screeching because not everyone believes in their imaginary sky entity.

      • +11

        I'm an atheist bro. Just not a cringe one who says stuff like "imaginary sky entity".

        • +2

          Be cooler if you did

        • How about sky daddy? That's what I use

  • It's public domain. Why pay?

    Also that awful AI art. It's just creepy and shows a lack of effort.

    This was previously free. Poor value now.

    Pure spam and promo for the church, both on OzB and FB.

  • I have more concerns about the anti-pro life username promoting a bible.

    • Username… checks out?

    • So is the Bible tbh

      • +5

        Yeah, slavery, incest, child killing perfect reading for a progressive society.

        • +1

          Don't forget the homophobia

        • The book is the foundation of progressive societies. You'd do well to also read part two and not get stuck on part one.

        • haha

  • +5

    Bending rules to promote your organisation? This is definitely a case of could not give it away for free.

  • -1

    Does it come with a side of holy water?

  • I only believe in Philadelphia Church of God

    Not a bargain, it's advertising. Not too mention it is promoting explicit content.

    Apparently free religious text is not permitted on ozbargain.

    Good!

    Ain't no place for preaching.

    • -1

      I mean, you are not obligated to read the thing

      • -1

        I don't believe in this site for that thing - simple!

        I didn't neg u btw.

    Not a bargain. Normally free

    Just like Jesus himself, this deal has resurrected

    Matthew 10:8 - "You received free, give free"

    • -3

      They tried to give it free but prevented by this odd ozbargain rule than religious text can’t be free here.

      • +2

        You can request the main religious text for most religions, for free, just about any time you want.
        So I don't think there's a need to post them here.

      • And that should give you a hint what is right thing to do, not try to find a loophole.

  • +1

    Yeah nah

  • +1

    Mmmm, nah.

  • i love to hate the AI art

  • Will they pay tax on this? I don't think so.

    • +2

      Who pays tax on something that costs them money, genius?

      • +3

        Capital loss tax

        • Ah, I didn't realise people paid taxes on losses like that, I thought they paid taxes on profits/gains

  • +2

    Thank you. God bless

  • go away pls

  • What's up with that lady's arm/everything?

    • typical AI generated image shenanigans

  • +5

    Not sure why people are complaining paying $1 for it. Shipping costs money and definitely >>$1 for a bible. NKJV is a much easier read than KJV.

    The ESV bible at Amazon cost a lot more than this, and it had 200+ upvotes.

    • +4

      Because it was posted this morning for free and we are on a website for sharing bargains. Op reposted for $1 to get around the site rules.

      It's all there in the description.

    • -1

      Because some keyboard warriors like to complain for the sake of complaining because they feel like it provides some contribution to society when in fact it just creates negativity and more hate in the world.

    • Found the believer

    • +1

      Because you can request it for free any time from a multitude of places.

  • You should watch Jerome Bixby's Man from Earth

    Ewwww AI is so creepy.

    Surely paying for something that’s usually free is ozbargain blasphemy! Sacrilegious!

  • +4

    OP user name is pretty dodgy given the church’s attitude to a women’s right to choose and to fertility and reproductive rights. It’s a firm NO from me.

  • +2

    On the one hand, it would be funny to order a million and have them pay out an arm and a leg on shipping.

    On the other hand, they probably don't pay for postage just like they don't pay taxes

    Downvote for AI image in advertising

  • I will be praying for anyone who negs this deal.
