How to report refunded Ebay transactions when filing as self-employed?
I sold a few high-price items on Ebay last year, and now I'm having to file as self-employed (schedule C). Needless to say a 1099k form is being filed also, but it doesn't reflect the fact that about 30% of my transactions were refunded (the item was returned). I'm not able to find any place in income expenses to report these refunds. How should I approach this?

Add an income item for your business. On the page titled "Income for your XXX work" You'll see "Common Income" items and "Less common Income" items. In the "Less Common" section you will see "Refunds and Rebates (income returned to customers)." Select that and enter the amount.
