The display information may be configured to indicated whether items are eligible for an enhanced shipping option based upon the shipping origin of the item and a predicted shipping destination. Some embodiments may provide multiple fulfillment networks with the enhanced shipping option.

In some embodiments the enhanced shipping option is an option within a subscription-based shipping program for the network-based site.
