Hi Capitalgains,
Thanks for your question!
No, you cannot claim a loss for the sale of personal property.
Here is an IRS link that discusses this in more detail: Topic No. 409, Capital Gains and Losses
Note that you will need to report the sale on your tax return. This TurboTax article discusses this in detail.
I hope this helps. Thanks again!
Katie
