This is not my business and main source of income, it is a hobby and like a garage sale for me. Selling old classic memorabilia I have accumulated over the years. Unfortunately, I have to pass these charges on to you...wish I didn't have to. *Ebay has also increased their fees to sellers by 10% so a 23% increase in a matter of months for sellers from Canada Buyer will be responsible for any customs charges the border may charge you.
