Be certain you know that everything sold over $600 on eBay now is taxable income.
Not exactly. All businesses are required to pay income tax on their profit. The only thing that has changed is that EBay reports your sales to the IRS to keep people honest. If a business doesn't make a profit, they don't owe any taxes.
