    My love hate relationship with eBay

    From 1198 hundred transactions my average sale is $39.33 my total sales from June of 1998 to present $47,123.60 so for the past 18 years my yearly average is $2617.97

    Not to shabby for a guy that does not have a job, now where did that money go.

    Is that something you kept track of or does ebay have a record of a users' sales?

    On the selling page, click on the account tab, from the menu pick out the seller dashboard, scroll to the bottom.

    They keep track and are obligated to report those who have sales over $10,000.00 during the current tax year.

    Shocking isn't it,

    At the moment I'm on a run with a new product line that I'm hoping to have some success with.

    Ain't it funny that I just checked my numbers before I found this thread? 63 transactions for total sales of $9287.77 since 1998, $5100 since January of this year alone. Been a good year so far but I'd like to do better.
