Shipping Question

[ironstone74]

I am looking at buying G3 waders and a Simms fleece from a shop in B.C. The final quote online for both items included the GST but no PST because they are being shipped out of BC.

 

Will I have to pay PST here in Ontario when I pick them up at the Post Office or when it shows up by courier??? Or am I only going to have to pay GST???

 

Anybody know?

 

If I only pay GST, it will be cheaper for me to have them shipped to my door (they waived shipping fee for me) than to drive to BPS and pay both taxes.

 

Thanks

You will only pay PST if it is bought from Ontario.

as long as the province doesn't have the harmonized pst gst, you are good to go

As long as the business does not have an Ontario location they do not have to charge PST for shipments into Ontario. I would assume that the B.C. shop does not have an Ontario location; so you should be fine.
