Hi

Without official news from the side of Bricklink, I was wondering if it's
not simpler to create a tool for Canadian seller to create "region on shipping
methods regarding the province of the Buyer.

By example: A seller from Quebec (Like me) will only need to create 4 shipping
methods.
- 5% GST for AB/BC/MB/NT/NU/SK/YK.
- 13% HST Ontario
- 14.98% GST+QST Quebec
- 15% HST for NB/NL/NS/PEI

But the catch is that the buyer only see the shipping methods corresponding to
his residence Province. Like that a buyer from Quebec will only see the Quebec
shipping method, an Ontarian will only see the Ontario one, etc.

Personally, I think it shouldn't be too difficult to "filter" the
buyers with their province. When they create their account, they choose their
Province in the address. The province is already stock in the database for each
account.

On the buyer side, he could assign the shipping method a new kind of region selection
in the section Destination & Base rate. If you find something much simpler to
allow the Seller to filter by province, let's go

On the picture, an example of what it could look like

For now, I have 4 shipping methods instant checkout like in my example, but it
is the buyer who needs to choose the right one and many, ... many time they simply
choose the default one who was the one with the cheaper charges. In that case
it is the 5% taxes who covered only the GST.

By hoping, something will happen in the near future.

Best regards

well, at least you've stopped asking for canadian sales tax to be implemented


I’ve accepted my fate of manually having to collect tax for the foreseeable
future 😭😭😭
