    Wow, this is like opening Pandora's box. I find it mind boggling that HMRC are targeting the little guys (and gals) like this. What about selling stuff you've collected for years and which has rocketed in value? Do they intend taxing you when you downsize and sell it on? Auction houses too will have to pass on vendor's details for Capital Gains Tax issues I presume? How on earth can you prove what you paid originally, surely no normal person keeps receipts for donkey's years 😳

    Yes, I love books, buy lots of books. Once I have read them (and it maybe 10 years later) I want to sell them. Bought them for £60 but sell them for £30 (minus post and packing etc), it is not for business reasons, it is purely to declutter the house of books or dvds etc read and watched. I can, in many cases, cross reference them to my ebay or amazon purchase but say I bought them at a comic mart, you never get a receipt there for any purchase so there is no record whether I paid £10 or £1 for an item. Also postage, will we have to keep all our receipts from the post office, their computer system only seems to keep the last 5 transactions. It is going to be a hefty exercise linking everything back to previous post office transactions. Personally, I think the 30 item / £1000 is way too low unless you are running a proper business, for personal decluttering purposes, it should be more like £6000+, otherwise will you just spread the declutter over 10 or 20 years to avoid hitting that limit.

    • @NikosMarko
      @NikosMarko  Před 7 měsíci +1

      seems to be the case that yes information is shared with hmrc at 30 sales but i am hoping or what i have been reading is they will be using AI to identify if trading activity or just clearing the loft space etc . Would be madness keeping receipts for everything we bought incase we sale it one day

    • @mrfoameruk

      Since you did not buy in order to sell that is personal stuff so there is no limit to that. If HMRC contact you tell them what you said above and they should understand. They are not after you, they are after dodgy sellers that buy new stuff, sell it on, and make a big profit, but pay nothing to HMRC (like real businesses do).

  • @markhammond2859
    @markhammond2859 Před 7 měsíci +13

    Rules are still the same, if you sell to make a profit you are allowed up to £1000 profit before you pay any tax, if you sell your old stuff you are allowed sales of up to £6000 before you pay any tax. It is then on the hmrc to prove that you have made a profit for any tax that may be owed.
    So basically if you are a reseller buying items to make a profit you can make £1000 profit. If you sell your old stuff you can sell up to £6000.
    So if you get anything from the hmrc saying otherwise you should take them to court as they will have to prove that you made a profit.

  • @Socialshell
    @Socialshell Před 6 měsíci +1

    I would assume that they will look for certain patterns of selling, for example selling personal items:
    Mostly I sell my daughter's clothing/toys on Vinted my items are limited and my wardrobe is often bare as I don't sell 100s of units.
    The sizes and gender-specific items are similar in size range and follow a flow relevant to a growing child my prices are low and below retail value.
    (granted I'm not the best example as it is unlikely I will be impacted by this)
    But if I was selling a vast amount of different items consistently making sales and uploading more items, finding a niche in the market and utilising that to generate future sales resulting in a pattern consistent with a business.
    Private selling of own items is not gonna generate enough revenue or follow the same pattern so is easier to prove if requested, anyone who is a business just needs to keep good records and complete their self-assessment/ tax returns as required.
    I feel the change seems to have caused Panic for no reason I'm not sure how much it changes anything? I just assumed it's makes people aware of their responsibility to inform HMRC Of their incoming regardless if it's taxable or not.

So my total money either stays the same or bleeds away into postage fees etc, but would I still have to declare and pay tax on what I do sell? Would this come under the personal items deal?

      I realised I haven't met the threshold as I was off work for a while and calculated how much I owed. Here's the formula I used with my monthly paycheck and the monthly sales data in seller hub:
      Formula
      Calculate Total Income:
      Total Income
      =
      Employment Income
      +
      Side Hustle Income

      Trading Allowance (if applicable)
      Total Income=Employment Income+Side Hustle Income−Trading Allowance (if applicable)
      Determine Taxable Income:
      Taxable Income
      =
      Total Income

      Personal Allowance
      Taxable Income=Total Income−Personal Allowance
      Apply Tax Rates:
      Tax Owed
      =
      (
      Taxable Income within Basic Rate
      ×
      20
      %
      )
      +
      (
      Taxable Income within Higher Rate
      ×
      40
      %
      )
      +
      (
      Taxable Income within Additional Rate
      ×
      45
      %
      )
      Tax Owed=(Taxable Income within Basic Rate×20%)+(Taxable Income within Higher Rate×40%)+(Taxable Income within Additional Rate×45%)
      Example Steps
      Total Income:
      Employment Income: £13,000
      Side Hustle Income: £2,000
      Trading Allowance: £1,000
      Total Income
      =
      13,000
      +
      (
      2,000

      1,000
      )
      =
      14,000
      Total Income=13,000+(2,000−1,000)=14,000
      Taxable Income:
      Personal Allowance: £12,570
      Taxable Income
      =
      14,000

      12,570
      =
      1,430
      Taxable Income=14,000−12,570=1,430
      Tax Owed:
      Taxable Income within Basic Rate: £1,430
      Basic Rate Tax: 20%
      Tax Owed
      =
      1,430
      ×
      0.20
      =
      286
      Tax Owed=1,430×0.20=286
      So, the person owes £286 in tax.
      Summary
      Calculate total income.
      Subtract personal allowance.
      Apply the 20% basic rate to the remaining taxable income.
      Example:
      Employment Income: £13,000
      Side Hustle Income: £2,000
      Taxable Income: £14,000 - £12,570 = £1,430
      Tax Owed: £1,430 * 20% = £286

    A second or third hand book SHOULD NOT BE SUBJECT TO TAX. There's simply no justification for it. What next? Air tax?

    You can sell as a trade using a private ebay account. No rules say you can not, for people wondering....you do not have to have a business account on ebay at all. As long as you do the tax thing once a year if its over than you can keep the private account

      This is where my accountant wrongly advised me. I changed to a business account naturally, but I just don't think it was necessary, so long as I'm still paying tax.

    I have a large collection of vintage Star Wars that I've owned for year's. Paid for by my taxed money. If I decided ti sell 80 items from my private collection, would I need to pay tax. My collection is worth £20,000 plus. Thats what ive paid over the years. If i can't sell and get my money back, then they're worthless.

      It’s so weird tbh a lot of it does depends on yourself ie did you think when buying them they would appreciate in value and hence you selling or just selling as times are hard and it’s personal item . For me it reads as no you shouldn’t get taxed on that but as such a large amount I would speak to an accountant

    Personal items and it makes zero difference if its from a private collection or not you get £6k allowance a year
    So if you sell a collect of private items for £10k you need to pay tax on the £4 you went over....and any more sales you instantly pay tax as you already went over the £6k allowance

      that depends if you are registered and if you operate a private trust.
      Then there is the claim of security from Etsy if they do not pay tax on the fees they have collected for VAT processing as opposed to allowing you to take care of your own vat which they dont but not everyone has to charge vat.@@NikosMarko
