Canada's "HST Holiday" : How it Affects The Hobby Centre
Просмотров 6 тыс.21 день назад
This video is an introduction to Canada's "HST Holiday" that starts December 14 and goes for two months. This only affects Canadian customers, if you are outside of Canada you do not pay our taxes. Our International friends should find this perplexing if not down right funny. It is silly, too work intensive, too hard to determine what does and does not qualify and the "benefits" will be minimal...

We Figure it Out : Plastruct Weld or Bondene Cement?
Hey why are the dogs afraid of tanks and i subscribed!
LOL. Buddy was fearful of all the engine noise and other sound effects. I would say he "cautiously avoided" the tank rather than ran away. Thanks for joining our group!
Maybe they will ban styrene and polyurethane resin also. And don't even think about carving models out of wood, that will kill a tree and eliminate a habitat for some owl or some damn squirrel
Can you use regular children's clay?
@@simonallen6605 Silly putty works great. Blue tax is okay but might leave residue on flat paint. I have not tried air dry clays like Das.
@hobcen i am painting a 1/6th scale model so I need a lot of blue tac...just don't want to break the bank on masking putty when the dollar store sells children's clay.
Hey, it won't hurt to test some and see where it goes. Please share your experience.
Shame there's no crew
Not included but I'm sure there are 3D print folks working away on some.
why is the intro music is so f loud??????
That's our old intro. We thought it would grab attention. We have toned it down since then.
Nice job by everyone. Have to figure out what is that the cool looking pink car.
Thank you. That would be the AMT Fireball 500. You typically find them on sale all over but rarely see one built. Same as the Snowmobile Dragster.
@@hobcen Thanks for clearing that up. I see it's a Barris design too. Very cool.
what ship was at 27 minutes, the wooden one? Lovely video
Hi, we checked with James who said "it's the Model Shipways Rattlesnake, the solid hull version"
@@hobcen Appreciate it many thanks from Canada.
Cockamamie Canadian, never thinks anything through, and never considers consequences plus a plethora of many other inane outcomes.
unless your buying in a bulk, over a 2 month period, you would probably only save less than $20 during this tax break period. it's kinda pointless for the majority of people.
They are simply playing a game.
As a Fellow hobby store owner........... You nailed it 100% man!
@@abyssus9304 Thanks. Good luck on your end! 🙂
Not mandatory to comply with it and you can just tell customers to save receipts to file on there taxes.
@@peppersadventure There has been some talk of this. As it is stated, stores must implement the tax rules as best they can. We must comply with tax laws as laid down. How would an auditor determine from a receipt if an item qualified?
@@hobcen As stated in the legislation its not mandatory , and says right on there you can submit it for taxes.
@@hobcen also further proof is that pepsico will be not compiling with it as per there public statement on it.
So if I lie and say the $200 1/12th Camaro or $2000 Pocher Lambo is for my 8 year old grandson...ahh, no one would lie just to avoid paying taxes, eh :( What a farce! Just like qualifying for the Covid19 benefits and 2 years later the CRA changes the criteria and the guidelines after the fact and asks for the money back :( I hope they don't do that to you. :(
It’s a GSt holiday which will save you diddly!
Just Tru-dough trying to buy votes from fools....
Don't bother doing this for me I won't be participating.
a Tax that shouldn't exist in the first place
Omg the stupidity of the government
They should just drop the carbon tax period.. dont worry we’ll be getting another hike in taxes so you can go through all this again.. all that work just to try buying votes for pennys
Thanks for the video. Question. Do you have a Euro Revelle WW2 Corvette called Snowberry in 1/72 scale?
Hi, Sorry we only have the 1/144 scale one.
@@hobcen Thanks for letting me know!
Just when you thought the trudeauliberals couldn't create a bigger mess...they go ahead and create one. Call an election.
Everything the liberals do is a mess!!
No wonder they blew their 40 billion budget by 22 billion.... We are governed by morons
Clear as mud
OMJ 😮 If there is any way for this inept Liberal government to make a “benefit” torturous they will find a way.
it is really unfortunate that you'll end up with the burden of proof
Basically a giant nothing with all the annoyance of implementation outsourced to business owners
What about the supplies? Paint, glue, etc.
@@shamrock1569 By the wording, they are not eligible.
Thanks for the explanation as you have found thus far…sorry you and all businesses have to figure this out on the fly it seems. Idiotic to put more pressures on small businesses for a hare brained idea…government speak at its finest! Sheesh! All the best my friend!
Well sir, if i get that $250 dollars ill be going to a hobby store. I was gonna send it to the Conservative party but they have enough money lmao.
As an accountant and fellow modeler - thank you for sharing this analysis. Of all the brain dead things the government has come up with in the past for tax breaks - this one might top the list. The ignorance of our public sector is astounding to me.
He needs the votes from the weak minded.
Well, my model kit store simplified their lives and stated that model kits weren't toys, therefore they didn't apply to the "holiday".
I respect that. I'm trying to get more kids into building models so I see some value in incentivizing model purchases for kids and youths.
@@hobcentbh, a few pennys and dollars won’t do ti I would recommend.. buy one get 1 xxx off.. When peope do that.. people tend to buy more than they want initially or setup a program where you buy 10 models get 1 freel It’s much better than 1 $ off.
Can we get a break from our government 😂😂😂
What does this make a difference when I have no money to spend not even on groceries big deal mister Trudeau happy holidays to you and merry Christmas to. God bless each and every one of us during this hard corruption and down fall of Canada 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Bill. This must be pretty stressful for you. You have to decide what qualifies as our wonderful government just thought this up without thinking at all. What would scare me (as a retired small business owner) would be the CRA coming back on me in a year saying that I sold a bunch of things that did not qualify and I will have to pay the tax out of pocket. The incompetence if this government is staggering. From the pandemic to this fiasco…. An ongoing pattern of stupidity. 😢
Hey Bill. Perhaps off topic but I must say, your store is my idea of what heaven looks like.
That's NEVER off topic. Thank you and we LOVE to hear that!
Only winners are the 'Hobbyists' in that Marble Hall on Parliament Hill.
I feel for you & your fellow hobby store merchants. This was pure political folly. What about scale model soldiers? 1:72. 1:32. Any historical era? Fantasy model figures of any scale?
Based on the sense of it and the wording, your Airfix plastic soldiers and those infamous green army soldiers probably would qualify but anything "serious" would be deemed adult content so, no. Gaming stores (which I'm not) are struggling with this.
@ Thank You for the reply. Best wishes going through this.
Only the losing liberals could come up with a vote buying bribe this dumb. I'd hate to be a retailer figuring out this mess.
Make a mistake while being a respectful business or citizen without clarity on the rules. 10,000 back because of cerb, tired of liberal tax grab bullshit
Sorry to hear that. But a good warning to all of us.
Insane vote-buying nonsense, creating a logistical nightmare for small businesses.
'Axe the tax' is also vote buying. Its funny how one tax break is seen as good and the other not.
@@jrg770 If you think axing all carbon taxes is just vote buying, I suggest you take a macro economics course, because you have no idea what you're talking about.
That Tamiya Tiger actually says on it, 14+
Yeah, I just grabbed it on impulse.
RIPOFF
The Porsche is a 993 version of the 911 which came out in 1994 in Europe, 1995 in NA.
Great job explaining the liberals are lost and making life miserable for you
Nuts...and this is the same for all businesses being a mixed up mess.
Seems the CRA and MAD magazine got together to figure out what is and isn't taxable.
The store up the road from me is a sort of general store, the "Last Stop". The lady that runs it had to cut staff hours and work doubles while she goes through all the SKUs to change them so Trudeau can have this BS for PR. I won't be voting for him or his stupid girlfriend Melanie Jolie. Notice how she tags along everywhere?
Only Trudeau could put something so complicated and idiotic in place. What a joke
Nightmare for you , you don’t deal with trains i see , they have model kits , some are less than 100 parts good luck
We do have trains. One shop owner I talked to said he got clarification that they didn't qualify. Perhaps the Playschool or battery powered types might?
