I admit I might be a little slow due to the joy I'm feeling over this news, but... How exactly does the bulk discount work? Do you have to order 5 of the EXACT same item to get the 5% discount? Or can I order 5 items total, and get a 5% discount on (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
