Closed my store and soon gone from here

Are there hidden shipping and handling fees or sales tax?
Sorry if I posted in wrong section, I'm quite new. I saw this ad for a macbook pro listed for 2.2k. The seller is from the same province from me but on the island. British Columbia. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Apple-MacBook-Pro-w-Retina-Display-15-4-Core-...
I can not automatically pay because seller does not allow payment to be made if there is a ''Box #'' in the address.
I have contacted seller twice and asked them to send me bill, no response. Now they put it to ''resolution''. They are in China so I suspect there is a lack of communication. Will this affect my status? I do want to pay for this item.

'second chances'
