Credit card payment

Recently, I mad some purchased on ebay.  Normally I paid the payment by credit card through Paypal. Anyway, one of the trascation was $7.90 and It was clearl shows $7.90 on the paypal windows. When I checked my credit card statement and I realize there was a international trascation fee of $0.19 or $0.29. I had been paid extra $3.50 for two transcations. 

 

I puchased item on ebay for several years and the fee seems start after 1st of july. Is interational transcation fee is normal? 

 

Any advise that I can avoid the situation in the future? If I paid by bank transfer, will I need to pay the extra fee such as internation trascantion fee?

 

Thank you.

As of 1st July 2018 an import tax is now payable for items plus shipping under $1000.

Previously it only applied to items plus shipping over $1000.
