(...) I'm not sure if this is applicable, but in my tax software, I am prompted for "hobby income" which can apparently be written off up to the level at which you invested in said hobby.

(...) I use Schedule C to calculate and report profit and (loss). If you use something like TurboTax, you'll also be led to stuff like calculating depreciation on items that are used in your business, as appropriate. This is not qualified tax advice (...)

(...) Are you treating your Lego sales like a business? You would do that on Schedule C, listing all your expenses and revenues. Otherwise, it's non-taxable money, just as the profit from a garage sale would be. In other words, don't tell Uncle Sam. (...) (21 years ago, 9-Apr-03, to lugnet.market.brickshops)
