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 each one?

I apologize if this is answered on the official site, but I have not yet been
able to access it.

Here you go (from the site, which may be back up now):

****
Buy any 5 or more LEGO Just Imagine Bulk Paks in this offer and Save 5%!
Buy any 10 or more and Save 10%

Special pricing on the Bulk Paks in this offer is valid through July 5, 2000.
****

Looks to me like you can buy 5 or 10 different packs and get the discount.
You need to give the S@H rep the code WB600 to get it, though.

This suggests that they may be working out how to handle volume orders,
so they have given a code which works well with the current system (this
is a similar deal to the buy 10 sets off this page, so the code to work
this deal exists already). I would guess when the new catalog comes out,
we will see the final volume deal (and may see volume deals on sets also
which would be cool!).

One thing I notice is those images look very much like the catalog
images, so I would guess that what we are seeing is a gif export of the
final catalog artwork (seems like a catalog to go out in July should be
at the printers by now).
