This raises another issue if you are selling personal items (eg the family car or other household items), then you need to keep records to show this as your stated business income will differ from Ebays reported ones.

ATO have no idea what, or why, you are selling things, so you need records to show. They will have their own allowances as to what to accept they will accept personal items.
