Is this a new thing? Has it happened to anyone else? Just wondering as it may effect my next purchases.

Hmm, that's a worry. In the last 12 months I have bought a camera, EAF and Seestar direct from ZWO and never seen a GST bill. I assumed that they paid it upfront like EBay. The same has applied for US purchases from astro suppliers.
