Casual sale of personal items may be reported on Schedule D IRS form 1040 and Schedule 8949.

Personal items sold for less than their basis (most likely, the original purchase price) report $0 capital gain on line 7 of the Federal 1040 tax return.

Personal items sold for more than their basis report the gain on line 7 of the Federal 1040 tax return. See this example.

Selling Cost

Price Basis

Item 1 $500 $2,000 Capital loss on personal item = $0 loss

Item 2 $400 $300 Capital gain on personal item = $100 gain

Item 3 $100 $100 No capital gain or loss

$1,000 $2,400

To report such a casual sale of personal items, follow these directions.

Down the left side of the screen, click Federal.
Down the left side of the screen, click Wages & Income.
You may need to click Add more income.
Scroll down to Investments and Savings and click on the dropdown menu.
Click Start to the right of Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other.
At the screen OK, let's start with one investment type, select Other, Land, Second homes, Personal items.
