That's because he just rents out floor space to separate stores, though you wouldn't know it.
The last time I almost shopped there I wandered around the store selecting items. Three of them. I took them to a counter to pay. The attendants of that counter told me I had to pay three different times at three different counters for the three different items.
I left the items at that counter and walked out never to return. There are other places willing to make it easier to take my money.

I wish I had followed you out the door. Instead I had to go to the loading dock, wait for my stuff and load my own vehicle.

I bough a new Westinghouse D4 recently. Went to one of their competitors. They delivered it. Even offered to take the old one away.

That's service. I don't mind paying for that.



Was it Blue?

No, appliance white.
I did want brushed stainless but they didn't stock that colour.
Might get it wrapped in woodgrain vinyl, when I get the Camry wrapped the same.

That is where ebays GST responsibility ends, or are you suggesting billboard companies and newspapers (in their classified sections) now have the responsibility to collect the GST on items sold in this method? Does Incisor now have to collect the GST on items sold through the items for sale section of this forum?
I think not.


Why? They have no wares to house.

I think you need to re-read the original story I posted which says the government wants to impose a vendors model and make eBay, Amazon and Alibaba and others collect a 10 percent GST on imported goods costing less than $1000.
