Goods and Services

This was moved to the front page as it is definitely going to affect a lot of our members, of course me too, if I take Goods and Services.

Jesus, does this mean a sale on eBay brings a 1099 from them, another from PayPal, and a seizure of funds? What a paperwork nightmare.

Seems a bit crazy.

As said prior, short PayPal and it might finally be time for people to accept opting into eBay Managed Payments. I hate paying that way, but I will understand if this is factual.

The real quandary here is how are you still accepting PayPal through eBay?

I thought everyone was on eBay Managed Payments now.

Oh, I don't sell on there since 2016 honestly. I guess I am talking out my rear then.

I always pay with paypal for my winnings, does that run though managed payments? I thought MP was just when it's credit card only.

I also still pay with PP. The payments now all go through eBay to the seller. Mine is set up to a bank account used only for that. Not sure what other places you can have eBay send the money to.

selling to or doing a private consignment (NOT an auction) with your local Net54 board member (ME ) who is in the business and handles all the taxes and other selling headaches!

Is anyone else quietly waiting for the first BST post to change from "100 FF or add 3% for GS" to change to "100 ff or 127 GS"?

(Just a joke because I understand this would never work because for every jump the percentage is still 24% of that. I assume it will actually stop being accepted by most and be FF or check. Another boost for the auction houses.)
