Taxing income from eBay etc

[motorbiking]

So called "Wasting Assets" are entirely exempt from capital gains tax. One reason people collect and sell classic cars or renovate old boats, or run them as charters.

Hmm, not quite that simple - is tax ever simple - if a business is involved. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publi...tels-and-capital-gains-tax-2021-hs293#wasting
But not likely to be an issue for someone trading stuff on eBay etc.
