Adorus Valued Member Canada 299 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 9:07 pm Hey guys, I already asked in another thread, but my question got lost among the other many comments. I ordered 3 masks, 2 Butterflies, and some other coins ... ALL GOT TAXED Quebec Taxes of 9.975% if I am not mistaken. I definitely will call the Mint, but wanted to know if I am the only one.

Adorus Valued Member Canada 299 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 9:53 pm First time happening to me too. March 16 didn't get any Report this Post to the Staff
noahs-numismatics Pillar of the Community Canada 3167 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 10:01 pm If 9.975% is the standard tax in QC, then they should charge you for non-bullion items. I could be wrong though... Okay, google search tells me 9.975% is your real tax percentage. (weird number?) Report this Post to the Staff
jpaiva83 Pillar of the Community Canada 567 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 10:10 pm at 9.975%, this is the first time in my like where I wish they would just increase the tax rate to 10%. Report this Post to the Staff
BronzeBender New Member Canada 26 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 10:26 pm Hate to break it to you Adorus, I think it might be just your luck. I'm in Quebec too and haven't been charged on any of the silver coins I ordered on the 21st too. Maybe call the mint to see what's up with that? Report this Post to the Staff
Adorus Valued Member Canada 299 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 10:36 pm Yeh, going to do that, cause fine silver 99.99% SHOULD NOT be charged :P Report this Post to the Staff
Ravenzcoin Valued Member Canada 300 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 10:43 pm If this tax is tied to the GST, definitely should not have been charged. Call the Mint and get the charge reversed. Rob Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 11:03 pm I note that the Quebec 'PST' is 9.975%. Being a non Canadian, I have no idea what that means. Report this Post to the Staff

Ravenzcoin Valued Member Canada 300 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 11:18 pm @ sel_961 PST stand for Provincial Sales Tax Rob Report this Post to the Staff
jpaiva83 Pillar of the Community Canada 567 Posts	Posted 03/26/2013 11:21 pm @sel_69l, In Canada, there are two sales tax rates. One federal, one provincial. Sometimes they are combined. GST is the federal tax aka the goods & services tax. PST is the provincial sales tax HST is the two taxes rates combined as one harmonized sales tax.
