fixyurdivot Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 This morning my wife, who runs a small craft and photography business on-line, was telling me of a conversation she had yesterday with our part time neighbors about the new "Recovery Act" laws as it pertains to e-commerce tax reporting. My wife already gets the 1099's forms from her various sales platforms but our neighbor was a bit shocked about the new thresholds (she just started a new business)... which are, shall we say, not subtle. It's going to get harder to avoid reporting income from online sales (cnbc.com) It's no secret that the gubberment wants their share of our ill-gotten booty, but wow, from $20k/200 transactions to $600/1 transaction... really? I wonder how they derived this change? Sell a used set of irons for $700 and get taxed on $100? I totally get that e-commerce sales created a tax loop-hole of sorts in the last decade and these same goods sold through retail stores would have created tax revenue. Si in a way, these changes are just catching up to current times. Anyway, it got me to wondering where this is heading and how far off it will be before stuff we sell on our BST sub forum (or the like) will need to be reported? How about Craigslist, yard/estate sales? Please don't go down the politics lane but just curious what others think about the changes - in particular the not so subtle threshold and whether any attempt to move to other non business ID transactions would be excessive? I'm doing a look around the house at what I need to unload, quickly . tony@CIC and MattF 2 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Evnroll ER5v Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Currently Under Product Test) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sincerely, Fixyurdivot The good thing for those in the states that do the 20k/200 as I understand it that’s per tax year so some minor sales won’t hurt. Also as far as I’m aware it’s mostly thru PayPal use for online sales. If someone pays via cashapp, Venmo or similar apps they may be avoiding that. PayPal definitely notifies the user about their tax liability edit: for PayPal it’s for goods and services.

OK, maybe we should look at pros closer to your swing speed. Cameron Champ and Wilco Nienaber both play 9º drivers. What I'm saying is that maybe there's more to your ballooning issue. It might be a swing issue rather than an equipment issue.
