US Internet Sales Tax

[lotzofuniquegoodies]

"Starting in November 2019, the way taxable transactions to US buyers are processed and how taxes are collected for remittance will change, as follows:

• In states where eBay is required to collect Internet Sales Tax from buyers, order totals sent for processing will reflect the gross order amount inclusive of tax.
• Once settled, the tax amount will be automatically deducted for remittance to the applicable taxing authority.
• A record of sales tax portion of the order will be available on the Seller Hub Order details page and through our Download order report."

Regarding this recent announcement and the Internet Sales Tax.

It should NOT be inclusive. It should appear as a separate line item with the state noted and the percentage for clarity.

Thanks Tyler,

I understand. I hope this was useful feedback (not just me complaining!) and helps improve the service.

In this case the buyer requested total to initiate me sending an invoice.

All the best

I'm Pretty Well Finished with eBay and PayPal
Conversion Fees
Items Not Arriving and Refunds being Shorted and Delayed - Indefinitely so it seems... Nothing like giving Your Money Away or Providing Interest Free Loans.

I'd Done 95% of my Christmas Shopping online with a Different Site

Ebay and PayPal Working together

That's Why Refunds are Being Shorted and Delayed
Conversion Fees being Charged but Not Refunded - Even if the items are bought in Your Own Country.

Nothing Like Interest Free Loans while you wait for Months for them to come to a Decision on things which Don't Arrive/Defective or Not as Described. 

How about Extending the  "Free Trade Agreement" to Consumers?

I've done most of My Christmas Shopping with another Online Company this year!  My Only Regret -Not Doing it Sooner
