NOTE: Sorry, no longer
accepting Paypal for domestic transaction. Check or MO by mail.
May have exceptions for overseas
transactions. My state, Virginia, and now the federal government
have decided to require reporting of Paypal receipts to the IRS,
resulting in the receipts being subject to federal and state tax.
There used to be a $20,000 allowance to allow for hobby
sellers to operate without taxing up to that amount. Now all Paypal
receipts are taxed as self employed income so I lose about 45% to
taxes and can't afford that. I don't operate this site to make
money, and most of what I sell is about a break even for what I have
invested, but can't afford to lose money on it. Sorry for the
inconvenience, but we have our greedy government to thank.
