so I won four bids from a seller in the UK. After I paid for the four items with combined shipping, the seller sent me a message explaining that because of terrace in the US that they needed to charge me an additional 10% of the sale price. They asked for my PayPal info to collect the money. Is this allowed by eBay? Their message to me: Hi,I am just emailing to let you know that following the removal of the de minimis limit for imports to the US from the UK we must make changes to our shipping costs. AA-Wargames have absorbed the cost of the 10% tariff charge on products since August, but this is now economically unsustainable.As you are having purchases shipped to the United States of America and you have paid for your purchases automatically, or before receiving an invoice from AA-Wargames, we now require a PayPal payment from you to cover the cost of the 10% tariff charges before we ship your purchases.Please provide us with your PayPal email address so that I can get this invoice sent over to you as soon as possible.If we have not heard back from you by Thursday the 4th then your order will be cancelled.If you do not wish to pay the extra charge, then please do let us know and I can cancel the order for you.If you have any questions then please do let me know.Kind regards,Catherine AA
