Yea really...

It is kind of scary to post a 7 day auction and have people placing the minimum 50 dollar bid within minutes of the post

No shill bidding, these are ties not plugs

I actually have seen what I believe to be conterfit merchandise a few times...Usually it's really bad and easy to spot...but as always buyer beware.

gotta love the shipping price for ties.

Not bad Spence, that is close to free money.


Question:
When you sell on ebay, do you have to claim the sale on your taxes?

The shipping is about actual, Priority + insurance.

I'd wager there's a huge amount of tax revenue lost on Ebay sales not reported to the government. I do it so infrequently it's not even on the radar, but I'd wager there are thousands of people who do run it as a small business.

Theoretically, if you sell an item for more than you paid for it, it's a capital gain.

But I think the IRS has bigger fish to fry.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Went looking for some of these at my local TJM, nada.
Once again Spence is on the cutting edge of striped bass fashion.
Hey,
You gonna make it up to Killswitch, Chimera, and Masters of Doom?
I'm off for the six days before it (three day Bomba ice fishing debacle) and had to promise to work on the 23rd.
Sucks!!!
Later,
Rick

Hey spence , whats a Bijan go for these days. We used to get them for free from the man himslelf at Xmas time back in the late 80's. (I used to work fo American Express in NYC) Guess I should have stached them instead of re-gifting. Still got well over 100 from Churchills though that are pretty nice,but I think Paisley is out of fashion right now or is it coming back again? Have not worn a suit to work in quite a few years.

Personally I think paisley is a classic...

Bijan could fetch some serious money if in good condition. Way overpriced for what it is, but always ultra-premium...

The IRS has been eyeing eBay for years.

The scope and complexity of trying to track eBay sales is considered to be one of the main things holding them back.
