Re: Amazon to ebay Dropshippers tax help
Few options (couple have already been mentioned).
Simply stay under the threshold. Also may be worth concentrating efforts on higher profit, lower total value items. Not always possible but it can be easy to get drawn into fast sellers that really cost you more in the long run.
Research Flat Rate Schemes. If you are unable to reclaim VAT from purchases for whatever reason, then this is worth looking at. Depending on what you sell you pay a reduced rate on your total turnover.
Not going to go over by a huge amount? The VAT man will allow you to go over temporarily without registering if you foresee it being a short term increase (Christmas sales for example). Give HMRC a call and they will help, they are actually great to talk to.
Ultimately if your skirting around the threshold and want to make more money then start finding wholesalers for your items. There really is no easy way around VAT.
