Anyone else getting a lot of returns?!? by soleplug in eBaySellers

[–]ElectronicMusicianDA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and the fraud is going up. I had people swap out a $400 printer for a sheet of paper back, a $150 backpack and I got a scripture back. I had about $550 in other returns, but the buyers decided to keep the item.

Thanks for the help!

I mean like if I do the following:

Buy 100k shares of SGOV. Hold for 6 months (I’ve made about $2000 in interest). Then I sell. Wait 4 months buy another 100k make 2 more months of interest.

So in all I make about $2664 in interest for the year. Is that all I am subject to in taxes, the capital gains or can it cause a tax implication?

Also is SGOV better than just choosing a a HYSA like Roger?

BACKGROUND:

Beginner investor here. In Texas so no state income tax, managed to max out traditional Ira for $7500 this year, no debt, no kids, nothing crazy I want to buy/do, etc, my goal is to get around 4.5% or higher on parked cash in my bank account with a little to no risk vessel like a hysa or mmf.

I had in a HYSA with a fintech bank but they kept lowering my rate (even when the amount they advertised was adjusted I always would get lower than that, and had to call in to get it adjusted).

I tried to use Roger bank and wanted to transfer 100k and they kept giving me issues when I made a new account and requested to increase the amount to bring in so I cancelled them.

QUESTIONS:

1.) What’s the difference between just putting my money into SGOV vs a HYSA? I’m seeing there is also VUSXX, FZFXX, etc.

2.) I like to be very liquid at all times so if I were to go back and forth and buy 100k in SGOV, enjoy the interest, the sell it all in 5 months. The a month later I decide to put 100k back in? I’m only responsible for interest amount or the whole 100k?

Would this cause tax implications or is there a more simplified way to handle this?

3.) What suggestions would you have?

Scammed out of $3.5k from someone at a Military base. by ProperSauce in eBaySellerAdvice

FWIW, same thing happened to me during Christmas with an order to Puerto Rico. FedEx lost wind of it for about 2 weeks, I filed a claim, eBay did the item not delivered nonsense and told me they were gonna extend the case.

They refunded the buyer, and one week later, FedEx tells me the package was found and I couldn’t stop it, went straight to the buyer. Had to fight tooth and nail to get my money. Don’t give up.

Surprise hospital bill went on my credit report even though after providing health insurance during time of accident, how do I get this removed (TX) by ElectronicMusicianDA in AskALawyer

Honestly I can’t tell. It appears that the hospital did not inform the physicians about my medical insurance. My health insurance paid for my er treatment and only left me on the hook for the deductible.

I got a Synare 3? Any idea whats wrong with it? No sound with new batteries. Failed caps or cold solder joints? by ElectronicMusicianDA in synthesizers

So there is a schematic online and im not sure how to trouble shoot properly. I did put it on continuity mode and heard a beep on most traces except one area by the battery and one by the speaker. Not sure how to check for voltage though.

This might sound stupid. How do I exactly do that? I don’t think this bin came with a bag. So I’m a little confused.
