They can charge you fees against an item even if you did not sell it.
This is sheer overreaching GREED and I rarely buy or sell on Ebay because I refuse to feed the beast.
This is a company GSP blanket policy only - shipping this from UK to me does not break any laws - domestic (UK and AUS) or international.

GSP also charge blanket import and customs fees when none would be due in the relevant jurisdiction.

Many other collectibles and antique forums with GSP stories. Never use GSP for one off items that can't be easily bought/replaced elsewhere.
