If you sell on eBay or another online marketplace and quietly wonder whether you’re recording sales, fees, or inventory the right way, you’re not alone, and you may be overcomplicating it. In this episode, our resident Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, answers a listener question about how online sellers should actually handle bookkeeping, especially when platform reports, fees, and inventory start to blur together at tax time. He breaks down what really needs to be tracked, what doesn’t, and how to keep your books clean without turning your side hustle into a full-time accounting project, because spreadsheets should help you sleep better, not keep you up at night.
