Slow used market right now?

Agree, it's not a new tax policy and sellers that operate a shop and sell often will know this. But as a hobbyist that might sell item one a month or so it is now being enforce upon. I have been selling on the other website and here for over 20 years and this year is the first time that I'm being tracked on things I've sold as a hobbyist and now I am receiving 1099 form. What's next - Craiglist, offerup and garage sale.

With that being said - I may or may not need to pay taxes on things that I sell, but I know things have changed and more money being pulled out of my pocket on items that I have already paid taxes on.

Respectfully, you aren’t being taxed where it isnt due. There is now a method in place where tax avoidance is more difficult. Its harder to cheat now. I fail to see the problem…

Local, national, or international market(s)?  Temporal trend or strategic transition?

Then there is the most material oversimplification err- cæteris paribus.

There's more than just a "liquidity" test occurring nationally and internationally.

Interest rates rise and inflationary pricing have material impact to discretionary incomes.   And discretionary spending.

Value propositions based largely upon boomer generation dynamics and next adjacent generation's are increasingly divergent.  

The currently emerging generations have a very different expectations than the latter.  

'Desirements' and 'requirements' are increasingly part of more decision making. As is total-cost-of-ownership vs initial acquisition cost.

Value propositions need to reflect increasingly future generations' lifestyle expectations.   Past generations are dwindling.  So is their market demand/participation.
