Nothing new really in regards to the interacts between Pitney Bowes, EBay and how the negatively impact trade between US and Canadian buyers/sellers.
But my question is simple
For Canadian buyers, like myself, have you considered going to your Canadian Bank and request to fill out a "Refusal to Payor" form?
Bring a print screen of the item/s, the checkout receipt and a printout of the GSP terms. Then request to complete a refuse to pay on the added import charges and difference in shipping, if known to you (because the seller provided it).
*The end result is you get an immediate refund and EBay has to legally fight with a Canadian bank in order to violate US/Canada border trade practices and law.*
Want to watch EBay rethink their position? Simply as Canadians use this option to cripple the GSP eliminating the valueless-added service and revenue generated by it. I predict EBay returning to a trader system in 6 months if 20% Canaian buyers do this one thing.
Cheers.
