Well, the total is more than $50 so it is taxable - the rate appears in Mexico to be 16% so at least $10.20 was due on $65. As for the rest there is a fee being added on for whatever reason (it doesn't seem DHL's remote area fee is applicable because that's more than $30). I don't think it's any different in Mexico - the shipping cost is also taxable if the total cost exceeded $50 as it did in this case.
There was no error on Pine64's end.
From Pine64's shipping policy:
You could have chosen the less expensive delivery option, it's slower but might've put the total under $50.
And I don't think Paypal will help you.
I completely understand the bitterness you feel -- import duty/tax always catches people out until they expect what will happen.
I expect the denial will possibly continue tho.
