I just noticed effective Jan 1, 2023 I'm being charged an extra 7% on top of the legit 5% GST regarding fees. I suspect this is PST (depends on your province in Canada) of fees which is questionable because I believe PST is only on goods and services to tangible items (things you can touch). I haven't seen any bulletin and couldn't get an answer from ebay after being transferred but got an american who would know nothing about our taxes in Canada. The only thing I can think of is the ebay fees forms a cost of the item you sold where they correctly charge both gst & pst and remit to our provincial & federal govt. With this being a canada wide thing you would think there was an announcement or an email like there was when they started charging GST on fees.Any thoughts?
