·3 years agoIf this happened to me, I'd pay the GST and other charges owing again and then go through Canada Border Services' dispute process on the form that will be attached to the package when I receive it. I'd print out a hard copy of the invoice I received from eBay that has the GST charges stated on it as evidence that I'd already paid GST on the item and there was no reason for me to be charged upon receipt.
