=== Less sellers, higher prices. Way to go...XXX.

I definitely have a opinion and comment but not suited for here. It would have to be on unmoderated forum.

F@$K THEM AND F@$K THAT, IM DONE, aint gettn my ssn, i sold what parts i had left except for a few at the fall fling this year.

Just keep throwing fuel on this inflation situation. What a bunch of crap. I understand that Ebay, PayPal, etc. offer a platform that is beneficial to sellers and buyers alike and to shut that door would be a shame. Honestly, I think that regardless of the selling platform the government will continue to find a means to get there hands in the pie no matter what. That being said, prices will continue to rise as sellers look to recover these lost revenues. So, higher prices or less government overreach... Hyper inflation, here we come...

They just want more of your tax money since they can't get it through congress...

If enough take the time to do the above change can happen

Does anyone really think that congress will ever repeal a tax once it becomes law. Im sure it has happened at some point in history but be pretty newsworthy these days. Once they get their paws on an income stream they tend to keep it. But ya never know. Maybe this will bring back the good ole fashioned swap meet again.

I guess paying tax for items you purchase online isn’t enough any longer. Now if I buy something online I pay 7% sales tax,I decide I don’t need this item any longer,I put it online for a 50% loss, the new purchaser will have to pay the 7% from buying it from me and I have to prove to the IRS I did not profit from the sale? Maybe the old swap meets will make a come back!

eBay was great for years, I quit over a year ago when they demanded my bank account, etc….good riddance as Amazon gets my dough now.

Any website, I mean ANY website that wants my SS number is suspect, and I will need to talk to them to make sure of who they really are. Otherwise, go pound dirt!U

I’ll be wrapping up my seller account on eBay on the 31st, after 22 years. I may start a new account just for small junk that takes forever to sell. But, no more big sales on eBay anymore. Craigslist is about the only tax-free zone for 2022. Almost all sites (including FB Marketplace) will be required to report income over $600.00 starting on 1/1/22.
