PayPal Friends & Family listings. Why is this becoming so common?

I think most sellers now realize they are not going to have a taxable profit.

The F&F listings at market price don't seem to sell.

It seems like buyers demand around a 20% discount to take on the added risk of F&F.

I'm really just curious to hear what buyers & sellers think of this practice.

If you bought an amp for $2500 and sold it for $2K then you shouldn’t pay any tax cause you actually took a loss. I keep records of all transactions upto 5 years. I prepare an excel spreadsheet each year of all of my purchases and resale transactions and keep it handy for IRS.
