How much tax do I have to pay Canada Revenue Agency?

Hi everyone,

I sell my personal things on ebay as a hobbyist. Last week, ebay told me that it had submitted a 2024 digital sales report to CRA because I sold more than $2800 last year. My annual sales summary is shown below.

Total number of transactions = 16
Total transaction amount = $4,072.00 CAD
Total fees = - $592.19 CAD
Gross refunds = $0.00 CAD
Total taxes = - $364.55 CAD
Net adjustments = $0.00 CAD
Consideration = $3,115.26 CAD

Based on the information above, how much tax do I have to pay CRA?

Thank you for your help.

If these are truly your personal belongings, or a collection accumulated over the years, I don't believe you have to pay tax on them?

Where the line becomes fuzzy is when you are a collector. I am a collector of vintage Barbies and I have sold many over the years. Part of the collecting is knowing they may increase in value so therefore even though the collecting is a hobby, selling them for a profit would then make it a business/income. If it was just a few items or a low amount I'd say no, but if you're selling several items a week it's more than a hobby.
