If you identified a carrier at the time of purchase, the carrier typically collects $35 to transition your service to your new phone. Most commonly called a carrier activation fee. It's been this way for the last couple years. Before Apple started collecting the fee, most users saw an activation fee on their cell phone bill after setting up their new phone. Now the money is collected at the time of purchase.

Where are you buying it from?
Did you contact the retailer and ask them?

We don't work for Apple or any online retailers so we have no idea what charges you are talking about.

Extra Charge for Order:
Not sure. Shipping, perhaps? Sales tax, perhaps? Is the iPhone all that is in your Cart?
If you’re buying an unlocked iPhone from Apple it’s not receiving a subsidy from any of the carriers. If you buy one from a carrier, at an Apple Store, you may be receiving a subsidy/discount from the carrier.
