I just placed an order.
The shipping cost changed (went higher) between the Order Summary page, and the
Agree page after clicking "Proceed to Checkout".
It didn't go up by much, and it was well within what I consider reasonable.
But I don't understand why it did go up.

I discovered something else interesting.
Once I clicked "Proceed to Checkout" it did reserve my inventory.
I hesitated for a moment, and backed out before clicking the Agree button, and
got out of the store, and then went back in. I looked at the available inventory,
and noticed my pieces were no longer showing up. Then I went back to my cart,
and they were in my cart. That time I completed the checkout.

It would be nice if the coupon application showed up sooner. One reason I was
backing out and going back into my cart, was I was looking for where to apply
the coupon before agreeing to the order. I finally decided it didn't matter,
and clicked agree. I did see the coupon after that point.
