Well that could be argued yet again, these items are not initially for resale they are my personal items part of my huge collection of rare sneakers. If I have money due for a gym bill or phone bill etc I just sell the shoes for around 200-800 depending on how rare. Here I don’t have to hassle my parents and get them to pay for these essentials as it might just be to much when you have 8 kids ha ha 

personal items not for resale hey you are a genius i wonder why noone else has thought of that before. Congrats. Let's hope stupid old hmrc continue to be oblivious to your wheeze...

Hard to cover up and hide electronic trails. Connecting dots is very easy. When you've a system called "Connect" that data mines information from a whole variety of sources. HMRC is far from stupid. More a question of people not being as clever as they imagine.

You state in a previous post that you buy a few pairs, so you can sell them to fund the pair you want. The buying of shoes to sell is a business, how you chose to spend the profits (on shoes) doesn’t mean it’s not a business. Buying something for your own use which you later sell isn’t business, the difference is intent

take a look at https://www.gov.uk/working-for-yourself from what you’ve posted it looks like to me you trigger many of the points indicating your a trader

Well done on avoiding dabbling in the illegal drugs trade by instead dabbling in illegal tax evasion.

so it’s a choice between being a drug dealer or selling shoes ? Have you considered getting a part time job

good on for avoiding drugs, but I wouldn’t want to compare every step on the journey to getting a good job and future against an illegal career, you’d regret the latter soon enough

No wonder Santander want to distance themselves from you.

I’m glad it’s not just me who sees that this is obviously a business

being under 18 or having an opinion that it isn’t a business won’t cut much ice with HMRC or the banks (or trading standards if they’re dodgy)

Under 18 yet has a Starling Business account? Hmmmmmmm??

Do you wanna see a screen shot 🤣🤣🤣but yeah go ahead check thier terms and conditions they did allow me to open as I already had starling current account but either if you have are bored go ahead and take a look thanks though!

To be fair there current account is over 16s, I guess risk of a business account isn’t that different. I guess a lot will come down to the nature of said business
