I received an item for offering my honest opinion of an item by writing an online review on their website. ( a few hundred dollar item). However, they made me agree that I can't sell, donate or transfer item to anyone else and the supplier retains the right to ask for the item to be returned or destroyed for up to six months. After six months, if they don't request it returned, the item is officially mine to keep. Since there is a cost of time and material to review the item, and I can't ever sell it, donate or give it away, I'm not sure how this would be treated from a tax perspective?
