I'm not sure if the entire announcement came through. Some people are telling me that it's not showing up properly. There are 4 NEW KIT offers and 1 UPGRADE offer. So I'll type all of them out.
>From Family Tree DNA: >From Dec. 1 and until December 31st (11:59pm CST), we will reduce the price of our Y-DNA 37, Y-DNA 67, mtDNAPlus, and Family Finder tests. Price for NEW KITS (You or your testee has never done this before) Kit - Regular Group Price - Sale Group price Y-DNA 37 (males only) - $149 Reg, $119 Sale Y-DNA 67 (males only) - $239 Reg, $199 Sale mtDNA Plus (either male or female) - $159 Reg, $129 Sale Family Finder (either male or female) - $289 reg, $249 Sale Price for UPGRADES (You or your testee has tested and your vials are in storage with FTDNA) Family Finder (either male or female) - $289 reg, $229 Sale Orders must be in and paid for by Dec. 31, 2010, 11:59 CST to receive this offer. ================ Back to Cheri: For those new to DNA: Y DNA is for men (if you are female, find a male relative) and traces the testee's father's father's father's line - all men, all the way back. mtDNA Plus traces the testee's mother's mother's mother's line line - all women, all the way back. The results usually are more anthropological in nature. Family Finder - Covers all your lines back to the testee's 2 or 3 Great-grandparent. But with intermarriage, you could get results that carry you a bit further back. I'm thinking the Azores project will start to get more matches here once we build the Family Finder part of it. I'm now doing my dad's DNA with Family Finder. Results in about 4 weeks. If you have a kit but didn't use it, it can be transferred to someone else. If you lost it, it can be replaced. Just let me know. If your testee is afraid of testing, drop me an email, let me know what the fears are, and I'll separate fact from fiction for you. Order from here for your Azorean ancestors: http://www.familytreedna.com/group-join.aspx?Group=AzoresIslands If you need to order a kit for a non-Portuguese line, the sale prices apply, but you will need to find the correct project to join. Go to www.ftdna.comand type the surname of interest into the search box. If there is no project associated with that surname and you want the sale prices, contact me off list and I'll find something for you so you can get the sale price.
