First Seller needs to research the charges to buyer and put in disclosures. Seller needs to ship using Ebay shipping service. If they go outside of that to ship, eBay can't track properly, and the buyer did not contract for UPS and their add on fees, eBay helps prevent those from being added on, the Sellers shipper transferring the package did the contracting, often unknown to the buyer to be surprised. The seller needs to be very careful valuing the package, in not totaling the sale price, plus taxes, and the shipping is apparent would escalate the tariff as the shipping UPS service rips you off adding that. UPS is tending to just max tariff everything, so Seller should not use a shipper if they care about their customers that works with UPS. The shipping value does get added for the tariff calculation by UPS and others, but the seller should ask their shipper what fee is charged, if they contract with a US based delivery service and disclose like the UPS or USPS fee in their listing and it should come up at checkout if you have formatted your listing properly, so it is disclosed giving buyer a chance to not complete checkout and pay, except in a offer and acceptance where checkout is automated prevent buyer from seeing all of the cost at checkout. The seller in my case committed many sins, therefore EBay refunded me in full. UPS is using strong scare language to still threaten me to get their out of pocket paid tariffs, as I refused delivery based on all of the sellers wrongs. I told UPS I will sue their CEO in small claims if they cause me any collection issue, as they had no contract with me. Nothing on the Sellers listing mentioned a US based delivery, so that needs to be disclosed. Ebay upon refunding me, I no longer get any status on the package's fate, except for the initial that it is being returned to seller. The last UPS tracking status was waiting on a Sellers reply. I try to not be dishonest, but I thought about going to UPS for the package's status, and if sitting there surrendered, and I keep being harassed for tariffs and UPS fees, then pay and get that package to stop the harassment, and avoid the time waste to sue UPS's CEO. I have with a car that needed repair that was still under warranty, I threatened to bring the head of GM out to a Small claims court appearance, and boy did my vehicle get fixed fast, with no further bullcrap!
