I decided it was time to go & order my sweet pea seeds... you can't order directly on-line, have to print out their order form, so I did so. I notice at the bottom they have GST at 7%...?... so I figure either the form's not been updated, the site's not current or they're not doing business anymore... I decide to e-mail them:

Hello,
I just printed off your order form and it has GST at 7%... is that just a case of the form being out of date? Also have the price of your sweet peas changed from $3.99? I’m interested in purchasing:
Queen of the Night
Pastel Sunset
Blue Celeste
April in Paris

Thanks,
Lisa

Their response:

Hi Lisa,
Thanks for your interest in the Sweet Peas.  I just returned last night from the Gift Show in Toronto and so was not able to check E-mails while away.  Yes, it is still only 7% GST on seeds.  Our Sweet Peas will arrive shortly  - this week or next, and all 3 are ordered.  I will E-mail you when they arrive.
Kind regards,
Darlene

Huh? I know they've combined their GST & PST in BC but that shouldn't affect the GST I should be paying... & umm, I'm pretty sure I listed 4 varieties... nothing about the price so... maybe it's not changed?!

I'm in two minds about whether I should order from them.

Super weird. Is she from Canada? Lol. Maybe write back and ask her why it's not 5%? I can understand you being nervous to place an order at this point...
