Hi Jilly, yes it's better to be making no money than to be losing money!

Absolutely agree, Phorum.

Do you know if eBay allows sales of eBooks yet?

Good Luck with it all Jilly 🙂

Don't think so Kustom, I haven't paid for anything I have read for months now with the number of free books available on the Amazon site. I have bought two 'real' books since I got back but have not even opened them yet lol.

Yep, it's pretty hard to compete with free downloads :^O

Posting this reply mainly for others reading this thread...

Yes, they always have. But they must be delivered in a PHYSICAL form - CD, USB Stick, Paper, etc.

The policy that bans them is the Digital Downloads policy.

It's not about the items... it's the delivery method that matters.

Alternatively, you can list them on eBay USA under the Classifieds format (no feedback)

Feel free to post it for whoever's interested, bud.

No way, im not going anywhere, this year is better than last year, all bar last month, its rockin for me.

To the person who said they dont know why they dont get taxed under 18 grand, its because the govt raised the tax free threshold thats why.

Im on carers payment, i need to find out if thats considered part of the 18 grand or on top of, i also heard if your under 18 grand you dont have to do a tax return, hope so.

Go Harley! Glad you're going well here still.

if someone makes under 18K (in profit, of course, not just turnover), they simply need to declare that fact ... can check with my ATO buddies tomorrow.

You can sell up to 27 grand as a hobby and you dont have to declare it to centerlink unless you bought your stuff from a wholesaler which has an abn. You can even work for cash and you only have to declare it if the emplorer has an abn - thats what centerlink told me a while ago

But once you reach or get close to the $27,000 turnover, I think you have to declare it as a business. That was the last amount I was told a couple of years ago
