Garage Sale
Creator: |
Overview
"Garage Sale" is not a specific event, but an ongoing effort to rid the shop of excess materials while raising funds for the organization. Materials will be sold in various ways, such as auctions, physical garage sale, and online auction sites such as eBay.
It is important that if an item is sold, the Treasurer be notified to tell the original donor of the materials what the items were sold for. This amount is the only amount the original donor may deduct from their taxes to be compliant with the IRS.
eBay
Listing items on eBay assists in determining an item's value. The idea is if an item is listed, and it doesn't sell, then the item has no value and can be thrown away or recycled. This way of thinking was mentioned from a member of HacDC in Washington.
