Verified to work. http://i.imgur.com/6JqbL.png?1

I had to keep closing and creating a new incognito window, not just new tabs.

It's cheaper to create a new account then to upgrade my old account for $249.

Indeed it is cheaper to just get this at $49 than upgrade for $249. This is a great way to upgrade to the V3 chip.

You get more SNPs if you have V2 and they add in V3, so I'll call them and see if I can link it to my account.

Here are the SNP counts per chip version combo:

V2 only: 576,000 SNPs V3 only: 967,000 SNPs V2 + V3 (upgraded): 996,000 SNPs
