necro posting to this, but i wanted to clarify that support fixed my problem with not getting prior purchase credit.
Also, the pricing has increased for Xanthar's Guide and Sword Coast Adventurer's guide by $10 each which is why it was off $20. I was using my original purchase price and not the current purchase price.
So I was wondering if buying a bundle was a good deal? I have previously purchased 3 Core, Sword Coast, Xanathars and Lost Mine of Ph. paying $108.70 with coupons.
It offers me Soucebook bundle for $269.90 less prior purchases for $176.19. Since the Sourcebooks individually are $289.89 and you are supposed to get 10% off, shouldn't it be $260.90 less my $108.70 for a total of $152.20? Seems like it would be overcharging me $23.99?
EDIT I had the Eberron book off $10. It should be $279.89 for all sourcebook books less 10% = $251.90. Less prior purchases of $108.70 for a total of $143.30. At $176.19 it appears to be overcharging me $32.89.
It offers me the Legendary bundle for $514.04 less prior purchases for $405.34. Since the books individually are $584.75 and you are supposed to get 15% off, shouldn't it be $497.04 less my $108.70 for a total of $388.34 Seems like it would be overcharging me $17 here. (EDIT Fixed this math too)
That pricing was before applying any new coupons.
EDIT It also offers me the Adventure Bundle for $274.37 with no credit for prior purchases. This looks correct as individually it would be $304.86 less 10% discount. Except I already own Lost Mine of Phl. and it's not crediting for prior purchase?
EDIT SEE MY POST FURTHER DOWN FOR MOST RECENT INFO
Lost Mine of Phandelver counts against the Adventure Bundle, not the Sourcebook bundle. so its $269.90 - (some large part of the $108.70 you already spent)
The legendary bundle 15% off is for future purchases, not on the bundle price itself.

But it doesn't offer me credit off the adventure bundle for that? I think something is off?
I wonder the same. Currently they are offering the sourcebook bundle to me for $80.96 after everything I have bought but I only need 3 more sourcebooks that cost $60 total before any other discount code is applied. It doesn't add up.
@Drhman That does seem odd, though without knowing your full purchase history I can't be sure whats going on. A mod should hopefully be able to offer more insight (I think they can see your purchases)
As a note, belegendary25 is 25% off the legendary bundle, TOADVENTURE is 25% off the adventure bundle, DESCENDNOW is 20% off a single book, as is RIVALS19
there is a thread with maybe more of them in my signature.

@Paladin54, If you used significant discount codes on your previous purchases, I can see how it would add up to more (especially 25% off ones)
Every book I've bought has been at least 20% off, most of them 25% off. So I guess if they are adding up what I have spent rather than just the value that would make sense.
The Legendary Bundle does not take into account discount codes applied. As it is a firm price, the cost of upgrading would need to recoup the discounts processed. This has been brought up with Badeye - the ongoing 15% discount warrants the bundle offering.

This is correct. The bundles do not charge for what books are left, but rather how much you have spent on books.
Since the bundle is a 15% discount and coupons are 20-25% discounts, it is possible to buy every book and the bundle still cost tens of dollars for just the future discount.
Taking the above, the Sourcebook bundle should be $279.89 less 10% or $251.90. It shows it to me as $269.90 before applying prior purchases.
The Legendary bundle should be $584.75 less 15% or $497.04. It shows it to me as $514.04 before applying prior purchases.
The Adventure bundles should be $304.86 less 10% or $274.37 and it shows it to me correctly. However, it does not offer me prior credit for purchasing Lost Mine of Phandelver
Unless the individual book pricing has changed or they have added another book to the Sourcebook bundle that is not listed, I think their site math is off on the pricing?
Okay, addressing my prior purchases. I spent $108.70 after coupons. However, the Sourcebook bundle offers me $93.17 off after prior purchases. The Legendary Bundle offers me the full $108.70 credit. The Adventure Bundle offers me "nothing", which is why I am saying it is bugged since I purchased the Lost Mine of Phandelver. It should offer me something?
Actual cost you paid for each book (your first purchase mixed adventures and sourcebook, and so these could be off by more depending on how the discount was applied / prorated):
PHB: $22.49 (assuming 25% off each title as part of purchase 1)
DMG: $22.49 (assuming 25% off each title as part of purchase 1)
MM: $22.49 (assuming 25% off each title as part of purchase 1)
LMoP: $11.25 (assuming 25% off each title as part of purchase 1)
SCAG: $14.99 (assuming $5 off each title as part of purchase 2)
XGtE: $14.99 (assuming $5 off each title as part of purchase 2)
Total you have paid that should count towards each bundle:
Legendary (All items): $108.70
Adventurer (LMoP): $11.25
Sourcebook (PHB, DMG, MM, SCAG, XGtE): $97.45
Cost you should see for each bundle:
Legendary: $405.34
Adventurer: $263.12
Sourcebook: $172.45
I am guessing the Adventure and Sourcebook Bundle prices are bugged because your first purchase mixed adventures and source books and the system can't figure out how to reconcile that with the coupon code you used. You will have to contact support to get that sorted out.
As for the Legendary bundle pricing and bundle pricing in general, the total legendary bundle cost is not a flat 15% off. The description states:
All released Sourcebooks & Adventures and 15% discount on all future Sourcebooks & Adventures
Note that the 15% is on FUTURE purchases (after you buy the bundle). It does not specify what the discount percentage is on the current books. The way it should be thought of is: Buy all the books at about 12% off and get 15% off of future purchases.
I am guessing, but do not know for certain, that it functions the way it does to encourage people to buy the bundles earlier.

It's possible they are not giving those full discounts on the Sourcebooks and the Legendary, but it seems odd the Adventure Bundle is exactly 10% as expected?
The Sourcebook bundle if the individual books were $20.00 higher (total) would be $299.89 retail less 10%= $269.90 so either they are adding $20 flat or maybe adding a book not listed in the description?
The Legendary bundle if you add the above mentioned $20.00 would be $604.75 retail less 15% = $514.04.
It seems that either they are adding a book not listed or there is a $20 mistake in the Sourcebooks and Legendary bundles (before applying the respective discounts).
The legendary bundle is not 15% percent off of all current books. The 15% is off of future purchases. I am pretty sure it is coincidence that the Adventure bundle is 10% the total cost, same as its future discount.

I submitted a case

Can someone confirm the individual book prices? Here is what I have:
Taking the above, the Sourcebook bundle should be $279.89 less 10% or $251.90. It shows it to me as $269.90 before applying prior purchases.
The Legendary bundle should be $584.75 less 15% or $497.04. It shows it to me as $514.04 before applying prior purchases.
