What concerns me more than anything else is the apparent ease which this system "collects" customs duty, which in many cases is not even payable on the goods in question, but which is paid by the buyer. What happens to that cash - into whose pocket does it disappear?

I agree - I'm one of these buyers who avoids all sellers who only ship via GSP. As a buyer its a monumental ripoff and adds no value at all to me.
