If you've ever sold on eBay, Etsy, Vinted, or even Facebook Marketplace, this is for you
4th June 2025
HMRC actually receives sales data directly from PayPal, Etsy, eBay, etc., meaning that even casual sellers are being flagged by their AI-powered system.
So, in this video, I reveal how one client of mine - an online seller - was nearly fined £3,000 by HMRC for simply clearing out a few unwanted bits and bobs.
I'll walk you through a real case study, show you exactly what triggers an HMRC investigation, and explain how to avoid fines, penalties, or worse. Whether you're making oddly-scented candles for Etsy or flipping stinky vintage trainers on Vinted, this could save you a whole heap of trouble.
