@vbabka ordered two weeks ago total six books from no starch including some pre-orders such as "The Art of ARM Assembly, Volume 1" and "Building a Debugger" but missed this one! I guess it is soon time for +1 order :-)

@vbabka My future employer (starting next month) made an order of two copies of this book ;-) The CEO just emailed me when I said that we need the new testament of Linux. That said, I'm still going to make also my personal purchase, with my own money.

@vbabka @ljs

It was like that you’ll only get the best single discount that applies at checkout, which made sense to me, as I had now three books of which two were cheap.

@vbabka @ljs apparently i'm bad at interpreting numbers and bad at web forms. Here's the final truth ;-)

The bugs:

1. I forgot to add the second coupon. So we never know the truth.
2. PREZDAY25 was discounted from the full order not from the most expensive book.

Well.. Umh... Hmm... lol.

Well, in the end of the day this did not go so badly. I still got -30% instead -25%.
