2) Add 50% of shipping cost for each additional item to the base shipping cost. 

Example:
Shipping cost of three items: $5, $7.50, $5.00

Base shipping cost (Highest of all items) = $7.50
Additional items (50% or each additional items) = $2.50 + $2.50 = $5.00

Total shipping cost = $7.50 + $5.00 = $12.50
