This is a prime example of why I am sticking to what little purchasing I
do these days on eBay to Canadian sellers. I was watching an item in San
Antonio Tx. The seller put out an offer for $20 USD for the item that
was listed for $28 USD. I turned d...
Well, I have been buying stuff on eBay for 18+ yrs. Just discovered that
a large seller here in Canada from whom I had purchased 5 items over the
years has banned me from buying anything further. The reason appears to

I am giving it a 5% chance (being generous) of being able to track the
item once it crosses into Canada. The last GSP it was Erlanger who put

item was as I have looked at so many o...

which was about 4 or 5 items. Direct mail item I would take my chances
any day on direct mail shipments especially at this time of year and
since these days I am buying a heck of ...
Actually, I have bought items from China that were $80 CDN and paid only
the 7% PST collected at source since Manitoba mandates that—no $9.95 fee
no GST in 3+ yrs buying there. I usually get the items in 3 weeks,
although I got one in 9 days. The las...
Items are subject to PST/GST or HST once they cross the Canadian border.
It does not matter where they are purchased from since the purchaser is
the one that has to pay the tax. If the item is being delivered by
Canada Post there is also a $9.95 serv...
