How would your customs even know that you paid it to some 3d party across the world? And if they knew how would they collect from the seller from across the world?
I saw things like that before (not on ebay) and I wondered that...
Plus sometimes what you pay is lower than what you have to pay in customs (included VAT), so it sounds even more fishy. Looks like you would have to pay VAT anyway, so you bother with taxes twice..
All in all - useless feature in my books.
