Can someone please explain why the shipping is $12.53 instead of $5.23 and how the total is $51.48? I can't seem to calculate get that number after calculating, am I going crazy?

item 1 $11.75 + item 2 $42.32 = $54.07 before any shipping and after quantity discounts
Method 1
$54.07 x 5%= 2.703 [Extra 5% discount for orders over $40.00]
54.07 - 2.703 = 51.37
51.37 - $10 = 41.37 [$10 off your first iHerb order of $40 or more!]
41.37 + 5.23 shipping = $46.60 or 41.37 + 12.53 shipping = $53.9
Method 2
54.07 - 10 = 44.07 [$10 off your first iHerb order of $40 or more!]
44.07 x 0.05 = 2.203 [Extra 5% discount for orders over $40.00]
44.07 - 2.203 = 41.867
41.867 + 5.23 shipping = 47.09 or 41.867 + 12.53 = 54.39
Also, total shipping weight for the 3 items is only 0.49kg
Thanks
You have a total of = $58.77 - after discounts apply of $19.82 (which is the $10 off and the 5% off) = $38.95 (less than $52) therefore shipping of $12.53 = $51.48
I think what is also confusing you is that it's a discount on the US pricing.
