Inversion

Hi guys!

Could anyone please help me with the following sentence:

The more goods you order, the more is your discount, the more you save!

Do we have the inversion in the last part of the sentence?

No, and it is awkward as you have it. Do this: The more goods you order, the more your discount and the more you save !

Thanks, Mister Micawber.

As I have understood, if we begin a sentence with "The more, the closer etc.", the word order doesn't change. Or I'm wrong again? (((

I would suppose so, but I have not examined all the possibilities.
