When a shopper creates an order that contains products that do not share a common shipping service option (e.g. one heavy/large item set with UPS ground as the only delivery service option and the other with several USPS delivery options). The Combined Services shipping rate is the sum of the shipping rates for the different shipping services used to support the order. ProStores defaults to the least expensive delivery service available as the shipping service the other items in the cart. The shipping service used for the shipping rate calculation is displayed on the cart and invoice page for each item for review by shopper and merchant.
