yummy_cheese asked:


if i have a website, selling lots of items, and i sell them on ebay, does that count as a small business? and any ideas on a cool, catchy website address for a website that sells mainly books?

    well if you only sell a little its like a garage sale, but if you sell a lot it is like a business to the irs, and you are supposed to pay taxes on income from there, and charge sales tax to anyone in your state and report it and all, but then can you deduct tape,boxes gas and a car and computer for the business too, just wondering, good luck
