Store terms and condition on first page and in bold red on splash page tell everyone
they have to pay 13% Ontario tax. In comments to the store I said "I look
forward to seeing a change in your terms and conditions". And then I asked
if they would do so. There has been no response or change. I cannot leave any
positive feedback. Would you? I want to warn other buyers. Is there some way
to force this store to get honest? Or is it all buyer beware?

A Bricklink store that is also a GST registrant, must include their GST number
on a receipt or invoice and must collect GST on sales to Canadian addresses.
Some stores feel they can claim they are collecting GST to offset their GST cost
when they are not legally a GST registrant, this is not legal. The problem I
think you are explaining is that they are charging you the Ontario rate when
you are in Alberta, which is incorrect, they need to stop.
Are they doing this as a way to offer instant checkout and then refunding the
overcharged tax after the fact? I heard of one store doing this, but i haven't
shopped there myself. I understand their reasoning although I don't agree.
You shouldn't have to ask for the refund of the difference, that's where
it gets sketchy.
