[Law] "Donation" for Silk

04/20/2013 14:09 Monterato#1
Hello,

I want to put up my own silkroad server, but I'm not sure about the law in reference to the payment. I'd like to "sell" silk via Paypal.

I know that I should declare it as "donation", but can I use my real Paypal account or should I create one with fake adresses? Is there anything else I should pay attention to?

Thanks very much for any helful answers and advices.

use your real account^^ but ask someone about the tax they will find you with fake adress or with real adress so its dont mind ^^

use your real account, nothing to make a fake, but don't sell silks, give Monterato Points with DONATIONS.

To make it short.
Donations for "anything in return" is not a donation anymore. If you get sued by joymax, you WILL have to pay, there is almost no way out. However, the chance of that is too low of ever happening. I live in germany and the law is pretty strict, however nobody really cares as long as you dont get sued or something like that :)

+ Paypal will block your account sooner or later, better idea would be just selling points, but to do this you need a company. To make long story short its not worth.

Yeah.. when I used ***********, I had to wait over 3 months to get the money to my bank account. And the fees are really high.

Well, you don't need a company to sell your shit, assuming you stack your money at paypal. As long as you won't announce to your tax office that you're making money like this, you should be fine.

to start of, Joymax is not gonna sue you
second
Donations stop being donations when you give something in exchange(that is why you could add "Donations with a chance of getting prices")
third
you requested closure
