Find your cost basis and subtract it. Then declare the rest as income and pay your taxes.

I paid taxes on it back in 2021. I got lucky and still had my receipts from the various auction houses. But Ebay doesn't send invoices for the fees they take out. Trust me Leon....I'm not getting rich. I just love buying and selling cards.

Bobby I think you can go to ebay payments and search from 01/01/2001 to 01/01/2022 and it lists each sale. deduction for fees and shipping, then net for each sale. It would be a long project for as much as you sell but it's at least a way to itemize the fees. Fees you can deduct is less taxes for you now. Good Luck!

I think if you look at eBay's monthly reports it shows eBay's Fees and shipping fees + other adjustments-- -

I don't mean to hijack the thread but where do I look to find ebay's monthly reports from 2021? I'm not experienced on ebay and can use the help!

Did you do your own taxes or did a CPA do your taxes?
