Fees being charged on the US Sales Tax collected by eBay

[adicio2005]

I am based in Canada and sell on eBay.ca When I sell to an American buyer, eBay collects the state sales tax. I have noticed that then eBay will charge me fees on the US sales tax collected as well even though I have nothing to do with that. That is totally unfair. Can somebody explain why eBay does this. Thanks

And this will apply also to the Canadian sales taxes which will soon be charged to Canadian buyers. The fees from Ebay will include the % on the total sale including Candain taxes paid.
