Changes to PST Collection on Private Motor Vehicle Sales in BC

Starting October 1, at the time of registration when Brokers collect the PST, you will need to pay tax on fair market value. This means, if you bought a vehicle for $500 and it's valued at $1200 you'll need an appraisal to prove why, otherwise you'll pay 12% tax on $1200.
