speaking of this, do any of you guys report this as hobby income on your taxes? I do, but that's just because you can't be a square without strong straight edges.

Consider treating it as an investment. Lower tax rate if you hold on to poster for a year. And you could report capital losses as well.

In Canada it'd just be considered Personal Property I think. Maybe Listed Personal Property but I'm not sure if it counts or not.. Either way you don't have to claim any individual item that cost or sold for less than $1000.

Not the same in US. Cash you get you have to pay tax on...or not get caught! Only tracking I can see is Paypal accounts and bank deposits from Paypal. I include value of my collection in loan applications...don't know about my tax return yet.

This thread is from 2 and a half years ago, the number will be much greater now, and of course it only reflects recorded sales...

You don't have to report on taxes 'til you flip 200 items or 20,000 dollars on EBay. Now you know.
