I only skimmed through the terms and conditions on a recently placed order. I
did not go to the splash page at all. OOOPSIE ... my bad. This CDN Ontario store
states on his splash page in red he will charge everyone 13% tax. When questioned,
I was told told, in no uncertain terms (lol), that his terms are his terms. Too
bad for me. It went back and forth and I suggested that he could do the right
thing and change his terms and conditions and conform to the lawful tax laws
of his province and country. That is not going to happen. I mentioned it again
in clearer words. I finally got him to refund some taxes paid. Does this person
even have a registered GST or HST number? Can I ask him that? Does he have to
answer? Does this person think that collecting his extra 8% on every single out
of province order his rightful tip? Does he think it is right to dupe unsuspecting
and unknowing customers? He is not the only store in Ontario that is collecting
extra cash in what I believe to be a low and underhanded manner. I wish I could
stop them. I can warn others about this particular store in my feedback. He will
probably counter with a lie of some kind and just keep on with these petty thefts.
So ... your thoughts ... or better yet ... creative and constructive solutions?

I guess it must be a pro Shop, then you're allowed to ask for their pro references.
Here for example, they MUST be displayed to the public.

IIRC I already told you?
If you think it could be an unlawful tax colection, DO report this shop using
the member report page AND opening a helpdesk ticket.

If you don’t see the sellers gst/hst number on the invoice similar to the picture
below then they are breaking the law and you can report them to the cra who is
one of the few government organizations who absolutely loves receiving tips like
this to hunt down
