I have just changed the eBay category of all my listings for 99.99% pure silver coins from [Coins & Paper Money >> Coins: Canada >> Commemorative] ...to [Coins & Paper Money >> Bullion >> Silver >> Coins].

That means when Canadian buyers purchase items from me in those categories they will not be charged HST or GST by eBay. Even if the item in question is a coin composed of 99.99% silver, eBay will still charge HST or GST if it is not in a bullion category.

Please see the new note I have added at the end of this description regarding sales taxes charged to Canadian residents.

Shipping:

As with all my items, free local pickup in Toronto is available. If you wish to take advantage of this, please do not pay by PayPal. Buyer will pay in cash upon pickup. Please ==> Contact me <== for more details.


If you want to buy another of my items and take advantage of local pickup, but the listing is not set up for local pickup, please contact me and I will correct it.


Combined Shipping Directions:


  1. I will combine shipping to save you money. If you buy this item and want to purchase (or bid on) other items as well, please do not pay right away. Please wait for my final invoice which will include discounts for combined shipping.
  2. If you pay for these items (coins or others) separately I will not be able to offer combined shipping discounts nor will I be able to send refunds for over-payment of shipping after buyer has paid. You may safely ignore eBay's automated prompts to pay.
  3. If you pay as eBay prompts you will be over-charged for shipping. When you are finished shopping please send me a message by clicking to ==> Contact me <== requesting your final invoice.
  4. My final invoice will be sent to the email address associated with your eBay account. You will know it is from me because it will have a short note that begins with "Hi <your first name>" and ends with "Martin" (my first name). Please don't pay until you receive the final invoice from me.
  5. Some shipping methods do not include tracking, while others do. Buyers who select a shipping service without tracking assume the risk of the package being lost in the mail. 
  6. At the buyer's option, an order including 2 or more items with total value of $50 or more may be split into multiple packages (if possible), each with value of less than $50. They will be shipped with a less expensive service that does not provide tracking. 
  7. I will ship them separately and periodically. After the buyer confirms receipt of the first package, I will send the next package. As each package is sent and then received, I will continue until the entire order has been shipped. 
  8. I do not make a profit on shipping fees. Both eBay and Paypal charge a percentage of the shipping fee (in addition to a percentage of the item price).

 Shipping services which include tracking are:


This coin was manufactured in and ships from Canada. Some countries do not allow importation of coins. Some countries may apply taxes or duty fees to imported coins. These funds do not come to me. It is the buyer's responsibility to check with local authorities regarding these regulations.

Here is a sample of recent feedback I have received from others who have purchased coins from me:



~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Note regarding Canadian sales taxes (GST and HST):

Canadian federal regulations stipulate that gold and platinum coins with a purity of 99.5% or higher, and silver coins with purity of 99.9% or higher, are exempt from Canadian GST (Goods and Service Tax) and HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) sales taxes.

eBay will not charge HST or GST on items listed in the bullion categories. Items in categories other than bullion (i.e. Coins: Canada >> Commemorative) will result in eBay charging Canadian buyers sales taxes even if the coins have higher than the purities mentioned above.

Sterling silver coins (purity of 92.5%) are not exempt from these sales taxes because of their lower purity.

If you think you have been unfairly charged GST or HST sales taxes by eBay, please contact them for assistance.

Buyers outside of Canada will not be charged Canadian sales taxes by eBay. However, eBay will charge and collect sales taxes (including VAT) and remit them to the proper authorities based on the buyer's local state, federal, Crown, or other tax regulations in the buyer's area of residence. They are not charged by me, and are not paid to me.

Don't ya just love taxes!
