Selling records and the new tax law
stl_ben replied to LIGMA_BALLZ's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I know of several people on here that are considerably over that $50k mark, but yeah anyone that is over $20k has probably been doing taxes for awhile as that was the previous point paypal was sending out 1099s. -

Its always best to contact a tax professional and take all internet advice with a grain of salt. If you get audited siting some guy on a VC isn't going to hold up in court. -

Businesses can be any size, it doesn't have to be your full time job. As long as you are accurately keeping track of expenses it is easy to properly file this way, I've been doing it for years. -

It's only less profitable if they went from doing something illegal before (not paying their taxes). I don't see it making much of a difference to anyone that flips any considerable amount of items as they were already paying taxes. -

I keep pretty detailed records of purchases and expenses. And paying things like sales taxes do count towards expenses. -

The discogs taxes are the sales tax on the item. 1099 reporting is for income tax. Both things have to be paid. It depends on where you live, many states have already had that $600 threshold for a year or more, it is just expanding to all states now. I believe Dream is in IL which has had it for at least one year already. But yeah you can go onto your Paypal at any time and look under tax forms and see yours. Depending on your state and if you hit $600 or more in sales last year you would be required to file it. If paypal sends the 1099 and you don't list it when doing your taxes it is big red flag and I would expect a letter/bill from the IRS sooner than later. -

Yeah the wife got through right away for tickets luckily. Hopefully this goes smoothly.

The drama continues today. Impossible to get tickets...then a second day added. But the second day is the exact same bands and you need another ticket for that day?!

Genuine Q: How Much of Your Vinyl Gets Played?
stl_ben replied to Derek™'s topic in Everything Else Message Board
Discogs says I currently have 3,805 records and I keep that pretty up to date. 99% of that has been played at least once, as new arrivals stay separate until I play them and catalog them away. I have thinned out about 20% of my collection over the last year getting rid of variants that I've needlessly collected. Probably play 2-3 LPs a week. 7"s are played much more often as I have a jukebox in our dinning /living room that we change out the music on every few months. -
Official POP MUSIC Catch-All Thread That's Not T-Swizzle
stl_ben replied to jhulud's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Man Ill have to put a monitor on that page in case more go in stock. Saw her on that tour ( Sep 12, 2001) and that CD was in heavy rotation for awhile. But also I like a 20th anniversary pressing of a record ....a year later. -

Yeah always keep track of costs....because unless everything was free you didn't "make" 10k. -
Buyers have to pay local taxes on all discogs orders. Been there for at least a year, can't remember the exact date they started it.

What were you accepting payments with if not paypal? I personally never offer non-tracked shipping. You can still set it up to offer discounts on larger orders, like currently I have mine set to free shipping on all orders over $100.

They just send the form showing how many transaction you have received, you can then mark they were gifts. Just like if someone gifts you money and you deposit it into your bank, it will show up on your end of year bank statement.
