At the time, I had to pay another $28.00 on top of what I paid, which I believe was around $125 dollars worth of cards from the U.S.

I was nervous, as another set of cards were coming in a couple days for around the same amount, but, thankfully, I wasn't charged it again.

Today, I just received some more cards from PWCC that were late by 2 days so I thought for sure I was going to have to pay again, but thankfully, tonight, they were in my mail box.

I don't believe Americans pay anything more than what is listed on E-Bay whether those cards were purchased in Canada or the U.S.
Thank you!

Yeah the $28 you paid makes sense. The brokerage fee for Canada Post is $10 + sales tax (13% of $125 is about $16.25)
