Assuming not, the answer would be no. And the statute of limitations to go back now and try to amend those returns passed decades ago. Sorry.

Can you count as expenses the actual cost of an item? Say you buy a jersey for $60 and sell it for $75 ($67 after Ebay fees) - do you count $7 in income or $67 or $75?
