Purchased through GSP - Expectation for additional fees?

[eluder79]

Bought something from a US seller, and it was through eBay's GSP. Wondering if there is any likelihood of being hit with customs/duties at time of delivery, or is that all covered during the payment process on eBay? I haven't been active on eBay in ages, so this is the first time I've encountered GSP. Thanks.

GSP is a separate charge (to Pitney-Bowes) at time of purchase and covers duty, taxes and handling -- so no additional fees on delivery. 

The only time there may be a problem is if the Seller mails the item directly to you rather than going through GSP for processing.

Definitely seems to be going through the GSP process as I’m tracking it on PB’s site using the typical UPAA tracking number which I’ve seen on the forums. I guess that should mean what I’ve paid is the final price which is great. Thanks for the prompt response.
