import charges

Go back to the listing and look for these words.

 

Customs services and international tracking provided

 

Those mean the item is being processed through the Global Shipping Program and all import fees are prepaid.

 

It will arrive in 20 days or less.

 

If it has not arrived by the latest date eBay gave you, come back and we can guide you through the Buyer Protection Program.

 

 

BTW-- items shipped through the GSP go first to Erlanger KY. Don't worry about this. It will be fine.

 Your "import" charge probably means this item is being sent via the Global Shipping Program (GSP) and there should be no additional taxes/duty when it is delivered.

 

Your total is: jacket cost plus shipping plus import charge

 

-..-

 

GSP (for USA): Seller ships your purchase to Kentucky. Then Pitney-Bowes (the GSP manager) clears the package and reships it to you.

 

-..-

Sounds like a GSP item so my suggestion is to just sit back, relax, and wait for it to arrive.  There will not be any other charges because you already paid the import charges when you bought the item.

Thanks I thought Pitney Bows was a postage meter rental company not a mail manager for parcels

They got their start that way. And General Motors was originally in the carriage business.
