I am a long-time member of the Germanic Genealogy Society. This year is its 35th Anniversary and the organization has a special offer for members! GGS has members from all over the world and I joined GGS when it was just a few years old.
For the first time, the GGS publication, Germanic Genealogy, A Guide to Worldwide Sources and 
Migration Patterns 3rd Edition, is on sale for GGS members! During the month of May, members may purchase this publication for only $35 plus $6 shipping for U.S. addresses. That is a $17.00 savings for GGS members. I have had all the versions of this guide and highly recommend it. Check the Table of Contents here.
GGS also has great meetings and major events. Attend either of the two-day events in May (15-16 & 29-30 ) and pick up your copy at the sale price and save the shipping cost.
Visit the GGS website to learn more about membership, events, and to purchase the guide. Membership is only $15.00.

Paula — Is Germanic Genealogy on sale because a new edition is going to be published? This 3rd ed. was published in 2007 so a new edition is probably needed.
The sale is just to celebrate the 35th anniversary of GSG. Per the GGS, a new edition “is not currently planned. We are probably several years away from editing this 658 page book. Much of the information is not time sensitive, or easily outdated because of the historic background and reference material it contains.”
Thanks for asking. I am sure others had the same question.
