Why do I have to pay GST on the postage as well as the item I am buying?

I know we have to pay GST on overseas purchases, but do we also have to pay GST on the postage.  This seems ridiculous.  Anyone have an opinion on this?  Please advise.

You would doubtless be aware that Lithium/eBay encourages members (particularly sellers) to have a posting ID separate from their main account, due to feedback manipulation by disgruntled members against them, which has happened in the past.

 

So your comment about Tippy's "zero feedback" is meaningless since she has many years of valuable experience on other ID's that she uses to help other members on the boards. 

 

Given your attitude to her and other responders here, she would have to have rocks in her head to share with you her selling ID's.

Hi padi*0409 , I think you've been around for a bit, and you may or may not be aware that there has been a group of bullies that have inhabited these boards for a while, belittling, shouting down and having a go at people who just want to voice their opinion on a few matters.


Anyway, my dig (if you can call it that)  at Tipty Toes is a response to an unfair attack and (if deliberate) slander on my name with twisting of things around. Not a good thing. Tipty Toes has done this before.  Apart from once not getting my facts straight and charging like a bull at a gate, I have never deliberately resorted to bearing false-witness against another member here.

 

If Tippy Toes carries on in such a fashion, I just ask what the prominent ID is. Just a QUESTION.

 

Today is the first Time I have been accused of running a sock-puppet. Well, I ask anyone with that accusation to tell me which IDs are the ones.  And the accusers are Brier Rabbit or whatever his / her name is and of course Tippty Toes.

I'm not sure if you know this Padi but a couple of members have not posted again due to the bullying that has taken place here.
