Dante Labs (WGS)

[Ibericus]

Nebula delivered right at the end of the promised 10 weeks (I have read it takes them anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks). However, it took them 5 weeks to mark my sample as received... Not sure if it was their fault or a post/customs issue.

If Dante had had this discount back in summer I would probably have picked them.

I've read your problems (and other similar complaints in other sites too ) but if they delivered the results in the end I'll probably take the plunge.
Do you know for how many days will the offer stand ?

I have no idea, maybe until the weekend.

Thank you. It's $299 today, and as you say, the reports add another $200. So $499 total. I've done other 30x WGS tests. Is it worth considering the Nebula 100x test at $999? Is that likely to turn up any additional SNP's? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I am no expert but if your are talking about Y-SNPs I did the 30x Nebula test (actually I got 34x) and my results were:

- 17x average reads on the Y chromosome
- 99.54% coverage
- 18 novel SNPs according to Yfull of which 1 is 'ambiguous' and 1 is 'one read'

I'm not sure what 'ambiguous' means so I assume that only the 'one read' SNP would benefit from more reads. Then there is an 8.31% chance of finding another novel SNP in the uncovered region (assuming the 100x test gets 100% coverage). In my opinion not even close to being worth the extra money.

I'm currently waiting for 3 months now (they were supposed to deliver within 2 months), when I ask them why its taking so long they claim I'm currently sequenced 89Gb and they cannot finish it because they don't have the supplies needed because of coronavirus). I'm thinking they just use the corona-virus as an excuse for their delay, bad customer service and bad delivery time.

I think the delay comes from combination of Corona virus and them using only spare capacity when available to process these sales kits. I personally am in no hurry as long they do the quality work and provide me the full data.

It's 299USD for the Whole Genome Sequence and then you have to pay 20eu for one month sub and not renew if you are not interested in getting the updated/new medical reports. So the total to unlock your files and have access to the reports already published would be 299+20=319USD.

For Black Friday, you can add BLACKFRIDAY in the coupon code area for an extra 10% off (just got an email).

Hello brother

are you the new spanish E-Z5009 sample on yfull?

So seeing as they got the sales on, should I go for Dante or Nebula?

I bought a Dante kit but their reputation is bad, but at the same time you can basically get 2 kits from Dante for the price of one kit from Nabula.

Cool cool..Nebula send your DNA to China though far as I know, so might have to go with Dante. They have two tests atm both on sale, the 30x and the 130x...is the 130x worth it at this point?
