Sold doll collection and taxes

[Cmd1]

Doing taxes and sold on EBay most of my doll collection the last 2 years  and bought other dolls and doll related things for almost $18,000  Paypal sent that I earned $24,000  How would I figure fees, postage and some dolls I did sell for more but other I lost money.  I am 71 and this is my hobby and not a business.

You still earnt the money, whether you are a private or business seller you are still a seller.

And what does your age have to do with anything?

Age has nothing to do with it.  I did pay for these dolls over the last few years and just was looking for advice on how someone else might have done their taxes?
