The Unofficial DD 20% off FAQ, Fall 2007 edition

Just checked my 30 most wanted DVD titles (mostly catalog stuff) and almost all of them are cheaper at Digital Eyes. Looks like they will be getting the bulk of my orders during the sale.

I was just going around the forums, and one of the ads at the top of the page was for the sale - said that it lasted until 11/25 and listed the code DVDTALK, but the code doesn't work on the site yet...

I love DDD but my biggest problem is the delivery times (yes, I know S&H is free). The normal 10+ days shipping times sometimes even doubles during the 20% sale (and yes, I undestand why).
One thing I noticed the last two sales was that my first BIG order (using code DVDTALK, thank you very much) would arrive within 2 days with UPS, even though I opted for free shipping. My next couple of orders (2 or 3 DVDs max) would always ship normally (i.e. 2 weeks).
I'm assuming that DDD express ships large orders regardless of the shipping option chosen (I just noticed that I use brackets alot). So the question is: Does anyone know how big the order has to be to get free express shipping? Or am I the only one this happened to?

Can anybody answer this question for me?
There is something i want that is about $35 at Deep Discount but at Amazon it is $19.99 I assume DD would price match it at $19.99 but would i be lucky enough to get an additional 20% off that price?
Thanks.
