Hi,
Has anyone purchased this? Was it worth it?

I've never purchased a camera bundle, so I wouldn't know!

Bundles are bad. You end up with a bunch of junk you don't need.
I purchased a Canon 6D, 24-105L and Lightroom 5 bundle that I’ve been very happy with.
Without knowing the "bundle" and the vendor, it is impossible to give an answer. However, most bundles are just cheap things that boost the cost but add no value. Most of the garbage can be bought for less with better quality individually.

My crystal ball is in for repair. Could you give more information on what you are talking about?
Oh my God. I often wondered what is the thinking process of people posting this type of threads.
It appears to be:
"A bundle is a digital collection of ebooks, online courses, and editing tools for beginners AND experts. Which are made (and normally sold individually) by expert photographers. We collect them in a single package for a huge discount, and offer it for one week only."

It costs $97 with a "value" of $5,030.63. Wow that is a precise "value"
There is very little information on the site. No list of "professionals" with bios that I can find. If they were any good, I would think the site would highlight that instead of hide it.

"Thinking process"? My friend, you give them way too much credit.
Here is some of what they offer. I don't recognize most of the list, so I do not know if it is of any value.
Do you all know any of these people?
