Can confirm as well. Bundle just dropped to below individual books in my cart. Now do I wait another hour or buy now? Maybe meetings are good luck since I also just got out of one and bundle was cheaper.
So if I were to buy a bunch of books now, and go back and buy the bundle later in the year, I would hose my self? Or would it be better because its about 30% off on the books?

I think if you can swing the bundle, go that route. I own a couple of the books already and my bundle price is discounted further because of that. I added all the sourcebooks to my cart and they were more costly than buying the sourcebook bundle.
IF YOU WANT A BUNDLE BUY IT NOW! I was never going to get it because I bought almost all the sourcebooks on coupon codes so the sourcebook bundle was going to cost me more than just buying new books as they came out. But this sale is acting as if you only have to pay $20 on everything and so buying the sourcebook bundle now cost me 17 bucks instead of the 80 or so it was going to be before!
But really only the Sourcebook Bundle would be worth it right? If you have nothing (but want everything heh ^_^), purchase that and then wait for a sale on the Legendary Bundle to pick up the remaining content?
At least that's my situation and question about it.
True, the deal is best suited for the sourcebook bundle as almost all of those books are $30 and get a big discount. the adventure books you will save like $50 bucks during this sale total with the ones that are more than $20 but could possibly get more as long as they come out with another legendary bundle coupon code at some time in the future.
I'm confused. I bought 4 sourcebooks this morning at 33% off. I already had PHB with the essentials kit discount (50%) so now I have 5 sourcebooks. There are 6 full sourcebooks plus the smaller Tortle Package remaining to buy. Are we saying I should have waited a few hours and bought the bundle instead? I guess I have the books I really wanted now but am I missing a great deal if I don't jump on the bundle now?
I didn't immediately check the bundle price until I saw these more recent postings but right now it's saying that bundle is $134.93 (down from $229.88 at 54% savings).

They're subtracting the price you paid for the books you own. Honestly I think the bundle prices are still screwed up even after their adjustment this morning.
All source books full price: $330 (10 at $30; 1 at $20; 1 at $10)
Normal bundle price: $297 (330 at 10% discount)
Cybermonday price: $230 (10 books at $20; 1 book at $20; 1 book at 10)
It seems like with the source book bundle today you only get the 33% off the $30 books, you're not even getting the 10% off the Tortle package or Wayfinder's Guide to Eberron like you would expect. I assume the same logic applies to the other bundles, you only get the $19.99 for books that cost more than $20 and not getting the discounts on the other full price books.
Does anyone know if I keep the items in my cart whether I will still receive the discount if I purchase it later? I've seen some sites work like this but others that don't. I was hoping to get my Christmas bonus before deciding if I wanted to purchase it or not.
I already have everything available in the marketplace, but they sent me an e-mail advertising the sale anyway. This was at the very bottom of the email:
Hurry! Our resident warlock will cast Dispel Magic on this spellbinding offer at 5:00 AM EST on Tuesday, December 3
Normally, the bundles are the price of all books it contains -XX%, then -amount paid for individual content.
Today, all books over 20$ are reduced to 20$. The bundles have been repriced according to the adjusted total (possibly even for books you already own based on some reports I've seen), then minus how much you've paid for individual content (possibly even if you paid more than 20$ for a book, based on those few reports). The bundle's adjusted price does not include the XX% discount, but you will still get that discount on future books.
This is the best opportunity to get the sourcebook bundle, but only consider getting the legendary bundle if it says the discount is 20% or higher.
Are you paying extra for a bundle? I already own every book in the Sourcebook bundle except for the Aquisitions Incorporated book and the Eberron: Rising from the Last War book. Yet the listed price for the Sourcebook bundle for me is 87.46 . That's 43.73 for each book who's normal non-sale price 29.99 each. So I'd be paying 27.44 for the privilege of 10% off all future sourcebooks? For 29.99 normal price for sourcebooks that's going to take me nearly 10 future books to buy until I actually start seeing a discount. Hardly seems worth it.

All the items that are in the source bundle when bought separately comes to $209.89 which is $20 cheaper than the sourcebook bundle so are we paying $20 to have 10% off in the future? I don't own any of the book so there is no discount there.

Is this sale for today only?

What does "today" mean? What time zone's today are we talking about? UTC? One of the American ones?
I assume EST. D&D Beyond is headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama.
EDIT: CST, not EST.
Thank you, V2Blast!
I don't see anything that says for sure, but I'd assume PDT (GMT -0800).
I'd jump on it as soon as I could, just to be sure. :)
