Ebay Buyer Sales Tax Scheme Headache!

[Fred]

I don't get it. Just how much sales tax could be on $76? How much does it cost to re-ship an item from one location to the other? To me, that's just too much hassle for a $76 item.

Fred, That's part of the question, why would someone do all this for not really much of anything? The whole thing makes very little sense.

People sell forged autographed common cards for a couple buck each. We had a member switching out T206 cards in modern Topps holders to make a few extra dollars a card.

The part of low ball scams I don't get is how many think scammers are not into scamming on very low end items. You can get scammers on anything from 50 cent items to super high end watches.

This purchase was only $76, but that doesn't mean he isn't buying higher priced cards and trying to do the same thing.
