Hi gtc. How can one place an order for the FGS at the promo price? I attempted to access the order page through the various projects I administrate, but did not find any reduced price for the FGS.

I think they are running an email campaign, possibly via project admins. I suggest calling them and ask how to take advantage of the limited order.

I must say it's a confusing mail message.

They say, (note bolded bits):

Last fall Family Tree DNA offered a significant discount for anyone who wanted to order the full mtDNA sequence. The response was met with an overwhelming interest.

For a limited time we will offer this test, to you at the discounted price of $189,

"This test" is construed as meaning the FGS that they just mentioned.

and

Once the sale is over the full mtDNA sequence will return to its original price of $239

Then at the end they mention the HVR2 to Mega.

I am sure glad that they are doing this because I took the FGS test well over a year ago and I have not seen one single additional HVR1, HVR2 or FGS match since the day I received my initial test results, and I think this is a bit odd to not even get a occasional new HVR1 match. Has anyone else experienced this?

I have zero matches on HVR1, HVR2 or FGS, but then I am hg I3, which is quite rare so I guess I can't expect too much.
