Selling an excess item on eBay or through TOTV is one thing. We have all done this. Operating an EBay business is quite different. I know someone, not in TV, that makes a nice profit selling items on eBay. He will shop thrift stores and garage sales to pick up items for resale. His garage is his warehouse. I am sure he is not the only person to figure this out and there are folks here doing the same thing.
The question is can you run a business out of your home. I believe the answer is "no". You signed an agreement stating you would not do this when you purchased your home. May be splitting hairs here, but a business is a business regardless if it is posting items for sale on the TOTV classifieds or on eBay.
