My understanding is that if you're in the US, to go beyond 200 items they have to collect the relevant tax info, and only when you get to both 200+ items and $20,000+ do they actually report it to the IRS. I'm not 100% certain though, as I didn't want to provide my SSN. Only a couple weeks until my limit resets and I can start selling again. :P

I think I am right at the 190-ish range (not sure), because Steam hasn't updated and told me if I hit 200 yet. And to make matters worse, I am trying to capitalize on selling cards because all of them have gone up in price for the most part and are selling fasr. First world problems.
I hope I don't need to fill anything out.

There should be a warning at the top of the market's main page if you're over 150 that says: "You have created (insert number) listings this year. Before you can sell or list more than 200 items in a calendar year, we are required to collect certain information from you. Please click here to provide the necessary information. To find out more about this requirement, please visit the FAQ."

Yea, that's what I am looking at. I know I have sold at least 5-6 things today and the amount hasn't changed I think (not sure what it was at before but I know it should be more). I haven't been paying attention to it as much as I should. All well. Thx.

The number actually updates when you put something up for sale, not when it sells, so that might explain it? If you had 175 yesterday and put up 5 items, it would jump to 180 items listed, and still say 180 after the items sold.
Then again, Steam could just be being buggy. Certainly wouldn't be the first time!

When you reach 200 transactions you need to give your tax info and IF you surpass the amount earned to require it they'll send you the required information to declare your steam market earnings on your taxes.

If it's anything like doing self employed work for another company then that company once you hit the magic number of 600.00 they have to submit a 1099 form to the IRS in order to properly claim the expenditures to you where an expense.

It's a U$A thang...
200 x $0.03 crates, and you're playing with the big boys, I'm afraid :)

You don't pay taxes unless you make over $2000 a year off of the Steam Market if I remember correctly.

I'm confused. So the cap is at 200 items per year, and after that we got to fill out a 1099 form? Or do we also have to sell more than $20,000 worth of stuff and sell more than 200 items?
