Pat, recalling earlier comments on this subject, i’m Thinking Wackys are just the tip of the iceberg for you in terms of collectibles accumulated!
All kidding aside, I’d be curious to hear how you plan to go about unloading other types of collectibles you have on hand. Obviously using this forum for WPs is a great resource, but each specialty area has its own collector niche and I imagine figuring out the best way to tap into each collector base is no easy task. Knowing that the IRS will now hit you with a 1099 for all your eBay sales, finding other ways to sell (preferably in-person, cash sales) could make life simpler and put more $$ in your pocket. Like someone recently said, you should only have to pay taxes on net profits not total revenue, but that just creates a new bookkeeping job for you to track your costs and expenses, whatever you can write off.
I have some accumulations of particular collectibles like comic books, PEZ dispensers, GPK, action figures, fast food toys and a few others, and the thought of listing them individually or in small lots on eBay is just painful. Conversely, if you try to sell in bulk, buyers expect to steal it from you for pennies on the dollar. I have a friend who is trying to unload and monetize all his accumulated stuff (mostly Hess trucks and Lionel trains), and the stories he tells me about buyers’ attitudes are just brutal. They’re typically not collectors like us who don’t mind paying fair value, they’re amateur speculators who want to pay you a pittance so THEY can flip the items and try to turn a profit. Apparently these are the types who show up at garage sales nowadays.

I hadn't heard about this and looked around for more info. The passage of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (AKA the COVID-19 Stimulus Package of $1.9 trillion) means that now anyone who earns more than $600 will get a 1099 form.
Once the $600 threshold in annual sales is reached, eBay will require sellers to provide their full 9-digit Social Security number or Individual Tax Identification Number before they can continue to sell on the platform.
How will people will try to get around this? It's against eBay rules for buyers & sellers to share contact information, including email addresses and phone numbers. I imagine eBay has AI bots searching for messages that include the word "Venmo"?

Maybe my memory is faulty on this. I thought that even the $600 threshold was eliminated, and that all income (or say net income) would be subject to income tax. At least $600 provides some breathing room for the casual seller.

Yes, Wackys are just a part of what I am looking to sell off. There are diecast cars, and action figures galore! Lots of spaceships, too. Some fast food toys, and some trains. Only a few PEZ. The ebay thing is distressing, but such is life. I figure I can at least claim what I spent on Wackys this year to offset a lot of it. I have also been saving all my USPS receipts. Some stuff I will sell on evilbay, because it is the best way for my oddball stuff. Then there is Brian's Toys, which is always buying. Also, there are two collectible stores within 5 miles of here that I intend to look into soon. I feel I might get a fair shake there for my comic and magazine runs, and some vintage Mego Star Trek stuff that I don't want to ship.
