basically a fine line between buying items for yourself, using them and then reselling after use and are under £6000 eg chattels. This is the original sprit of ebay, eg like a yard sale or selling old items of your possesion
Buying items and then reselling for profit is trading and should be declared officially.
Ebay probably wont do anything until profits reach £60,000 coz of VAT registration. items under £6k are except from CGT
However it is income and is taxed normally as such eg 22 / 40%
or just let it run and tell the ebayer that u realised the item u actioned is damaged or whatever then fill out one of those mutal agreement forms that way u get your fees abck and listing fee aswell
I was going to say this but there is a risk that you do that and then stick it back on the bay a while later and the people that were bidding on it notice - still probably the best option
Got this email from paypal the other day
"A review of recent transactions indicates that you may have received an
unauthorised payment. This means that the PayPal account holder may not
have authorised the payment you received.
We would like to learn more about this transaction. Please log in to your
PayPal account and provide some information.
We strongly advise that you do not send the item until our investigation is
complete. If you have already sent the item, please log in and let us know
where you sent it.
We have placed a temporary hold on the funds until the investigation is
complete."
Anyone know what this is about? Ive been online anf filled out a the details of the sale including tracking information. The transaction was from something i sold to someone on here

I've had that message before. It's where somebody's account gets hacked and whoever has hacked it starts buying stuff left right and centre. It may be that the person you sold the item to has had their account hacked and paypal have put a temporary hold on ALL transactions as a precaution until the account holder has verified which transactions were made by him/her
i need some proper advise here please from anyone who does lots of sales on ebay as a living kind of thing but not a tell the government declare for tax reasons one (mikey carroll or anyone please)
what with these new tax rules etc coming out on the 1st of may on ebay, what are people going to do, one of my crumpets sells untold birds clobber on the bay, and its her only income and she doesnt tell anyone or declare it, just pockets the profits and carries on life regardless and obviously she doesnt want to change that…what is the score, whats going to happen, what are are people going to do..is there anyway she can carry on doing it without paying anything to the queen??

I haven't (and wouldn't) report anyone off here but I have reported auctions for keyword spamming before because it annoys the fuck out me.
If I'm searching for Raf stuff I don't want to have to wade through pages of unrelated crap.
Search for Visvim and about 70% of the auctions worldwide have nothing to do with the brand
