I won an ebay item. I am located in NB. He is located in ON.
He is trying to charge me NB HST when the auction clearly states the following:
Ontario orders will be charged 8% PST and 7% GST.
Rest of Canada 7% GST
No where does it say I have to pay my own provinces PST.
I have already paid him based on just GST and now he wants 6 bux more. I know it's only 6 bux, but it's the fact of the matter. I was not willing to spend more than I did, that is why I made the bid at the price I did.
Legally he is not entitle to my own province's PST part of the HST. Am I right?
I told him via email and on their sales line to either dop the surcharge or I will charge back by monday.
Auction item is http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=4132211711
Your thoughts on this? What would you do? Would you pay the 6 bux and let him get away with his little scam? or would you chargeback against a powerseller?

Depends on how much you value your ebay rating. He is obviously pulling a scam but you know for sure he is going to leave you negative feedback. You definately shouldn't have to pay the PST.
