MemberKitty,
You’re not being aggravating at all sweetie!? I’m glad I can help? ?:)
Try googling for your state and “tax collector,” or check your city’s or county’s website for business links.? Or you could check in the government section of your local phone book and ring up whichever office seems relevant – if they don’t handle such matters they ought to be able to direct you to whoever does.? Many cities and counties have requirements for licenses even for tiny eBay businesses, the only way to know for sure about this is to check.?
I am nearly certain that no US bank will allow you to open an account under a name that you don’t have some kind of legal documentation for.? I have actually been surprised at how many guys have wanted to pay with personal checks; I too thought they’d prefer something more anonymous.?
As far as taxes go, keep in mind that a LOT of folks who are doing things that are legally iffy actually get nabbed for tax evasion not obscenity or whatever.? I’d say just keep very close track of your expenses, remembering that lots of stuff you may not have thought of (like haircuts and makeup and banking fees) may qualify as expenses and help to minimize your profits, and therefore taxes.? If you’re just selling a pair here and there you may not show any profit at all as far as the IRS is concerned (this could also work to your benefit if it helps you qualify for something like the Earned Income Credit – but that’s another story).
If you only intend to sell the occasional pair of panties you might be able to escape the notice of the IRS etc, but if you ever mean to expand I’d say it’s a good idea to get all this stuff straight right from the start, to prevent bigger problems down the road.

MemberThanks for clearing that up Krooze!? Like I said, over here sending anything sexual (and that includes “sending” pictures over the internet) does open one up to prosecution for obscenity.
And yes PK, in Florida it IS called a fictitious name registration.? It hadn’t even occurred to me that that was odd – I’ve registered a couple of times for different endeavors, but always here in Florida.? ?:laugh:? ?I actually decided to go through with it for this business when a customer sent me a check made out to “Cherie” – which I took to the bank and was told couldn’t be deposited, even though they all have known me for donkey’s years.? I still wouldn’t have bothered if Florida hadn’t recently made it much easier and cheaper to register – used to be you had to take out a big (expensive!) ad in the legal section of the newspsper classifieds, now you just have to fill out a form online, it’s done in 5 min and costs 1/3 as much.? I guess whether you opt to register or not really has to depend on how much business you mean to be doing;? I knew that I wanted to actually make a living doing this stuff and that selling the occasional pair of panties was only going to be the start for me.? ?:)
Bye the bye, in the process of all this I “came out” as a panty girl/webwhore to the folks at my bank AND a nice young lady at the post office (I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut sometimes, lol!) and none of them even batted an eye – which I take as a reassuring sign that what I’m doing doesn’t “violate community standards.”?

MemberSoccermom,
I *think* that you could get away with using fake info in all the “profile” stuff on PPPay, but you would need to use your real info when it came time to attach any bank/credit card accounts to your PPPay account.? However, I’m pretty sure all the customer sees is the email and the “contact” name, which I know you can use your pseudonym for as that’s what I have done.
HTH!

MemberMissAsuka,
First, I want to point out what Jess, Karen, etc have not – Jess is in the UK and Karen’s in Canada, where postal (and other) regulations are different from here in the US.? Here in the US, for instance, it is NOT illegal to use your PO Box as a return address for packages or anything else.? What IS illegal in the US is sending “biohazardous material” through the mail, which, if it came to a court battle, would probably include period and scat items, but not pee or plain cummy panties (as there’s no evidence that disease can be transmitted through pee or cum, unlike blood and shit).? On the other hand, here in the US sending anything sexual through the mail puts you at risk for an obscenity prosecution.? This risk is likely very minor if we’re talking about plain worn panties, much higher for period/poop/pee items, and my understanding of the situation with the girl who actually got convicted was she was nabbed for sending shitty panties.? (I would appreciate if Krooze or PK could fill us in on the details!)? The US Postal Service also does NOT have a policy of releasing info on PO Box holders to just anybody who asks; they will only give out that info to somebody with a legitimate reason for asking, like a cop with a court order or something like that.
If you’re going to be accepting payments through the mail, you’ll probably want to get a business checking account (so you can take personal checks), and when you do that you’ll have to get what is called a “fictitious name registration.”? Which basically means you file a form with your state and pay a fee so that you can do business under whatever name you choose.? Then, voila, you can use the fictitious name on your return address labels.? Mine’s “Chateau Cherie Enterprises,” nice and neutral but also specific enough that the guy knows who the package is from.? If you don’t intend to accept personal checks I see no reason why you can’t just make up a business name (without filing the fictitious name registration) and use it on your packages, but as always when trying to circumvent the government you are taking a legal risk.? It’s not illegal here to put any damn thing you please as a return address, but it IS illegal to operate a business without the appropriate licenses etc.
I use printed address labels for both shipping & return address, and I ship USPS Priority Mail with delivery confirmation.? Delivery confirmation DOES NOT mean anybody has to sign for the package, just that the Post Office verifies that the package was delivered.? The customer never even has to know!? I consider this important protection against any guy who tries to rip me off by claiming he “never got the package,”? and also it’s dead easy since USPS Priority Mail packages can be sent from home, with postage paid for online, AND if paid for online the delivery confirmation option is FREE.? Plus, I know that a lot of companies use Priority Mail to send junk mail, so IMO a Priority Mail flat-rate envelope with preprinted address & return labels looks a lot more innocuous than a brown kraft envelope with or without feminine handwriting on it.? And to top off the benefits, the Post Office will not only give you free Priority Mail boxes and envelopes, they’ll deliver them right to your door!
Check it out:
http://shop.usps.com/cgi-bin/vsbv/postal_store_non_ssl/home.jsp?appName=SSOLAs far as shipping overseas, I ship USPS Air Mail in a plain white tyvek envelope with printed address & return address lables, and I’ve not had any problems.? Another thing that’s different here in the US is that ANY package going to foreign parts, no matter how small, MUST have a customs declaration attached.? The customs form includes areas (which must be filled out) for value of contents, description of contents, and return address and signature of sender.? I’ve never had any trouble using my PO Box as the return address on this form,? I usually sign with my “stage” name (Cherie), and I put “gift – clothing” as the description of contents and $20 as the value.? If a small package (under 1lb) has correct postage & a customs form it can legally be sent from your house (saving you a trip to the PO), however many Postal employees don’t know this and so if your mail carrier balks and you don’t want to raise suspicion it’s probably best to ship from the Post Office itself.
One last note about shipping…those tyvek envelopes (which are also used by the US Postal Service for their priority mail envelopes) are practically indestructible – no chance of your smelly panties falling out into the lap of a suspicious postal worker!
Now, with all this filing of forms etc there’s obviously some risk of somebody being able to trace you.? The only way I can think of to remain completely anonymous in all this is to have somebody else front for you, using their name address etc.? That said, it’s really a rare bird who will even know to look at things like the whois for a website or a business’s fictitious name registration.? My feeling about this is that if somebody is determined to cause me grief they will find a way, so I’m just not going to worry about it beyond ordinary, commonsense precautions.
I’ve used PPPay for a number of transactions with no problems;? you do have to give your real, legal name etc info so that you can actually get at the money (just like with PayPal!) but as far as I know all the customer sees is your email addy.? I did put “Cherie” as my contact name when I signed up, and I used my PO Box as the address just in case.
Hope I haven’t bored ya’ll too much with all this, and hope it helps!

MemberWhat a great question Cindy!? lmao
My juices were always milky white when I was younger, except for the totally clear eggwhite stuff around ovulation time, but since having kids it sometimes has a slight yellow tinge.? The texture has also changed as I’ve gotten older, it’s much thicker and sometimes even a little “stringy” or “lumpy.”
Also, I’ve been in a few long-term lesbian relationships, enough to see that the white or yellow tint and the stringy/lumpy texture is pretty normal.? At least, my juices aren’t all that much different from any other pussy I’ve met up close and personal.

MemberThat’s really interesting Karen, and I sympathize.? ?:unsure:
I bet it is from being on the pill so long, I know whenever I was on the pill toward the end of my 20’s I had, like, zero interest – then when I went off it my desire perked right up.? I won’t even go on it anymore now, it affects me so badly; we got Sgt. fixed instead.? Didn’t seem to affect me like that when I was a teenager though (think I started on the pill at 16 or 17), so maybe you’re right about it being cumulative.? And certainly plain old life stress does impact sex – nothing like sleepless nights with crying kids and money worries to kill arousal!
How are things going with the bf, and your “secret identity”?

Oh yes! I have fantastic orgasms on cam, guess I just like to show off! I usually have a couple of orgasms in a 10 minutes show, often more, sometimes seperate orgasms and sometimes one huge orgasm with several peaks…? smtI’m so confident in my ability to orgasm that I offer the ‘Seven Minute Quickie’ where I’ll strip and make myself orgasm in seven minutes guaranteed or the show overuns and I stay on cam until I do? :laugh: Ah, the number of guys who reckon they’ll get a few free minutes….
… which they often do but that’s because I want another orgasm!
http://refer.adultwork.co.uk/?R=62667&T=62667 for the seven minute quickie!
Brilliant Jennifer!? ?lmao? jo
Karen,? when I was young I actually had a pretty tough time having an orgasm.? My “orgasmic abilities” have steadily increased with age and really shot right up there after having kids.? Something in the hormonal changes maybe.? ?;)

True. I guess you have to try and view the place with “fresh eyes” It’s easy once you know where all the buttons are but Panty Hog’s developed in to a whacking great site, it must look pretty intimidating at first glance. Even I looked at the submit news section and turned around and walked out? :cheer: I love a good refresh and dust off. Winter cleaning? 😉Soooo, are we having a party for our 1 year old Piglet on his birthday?
Ohhh, let’s do!? I’ll bring a bottle of bubbly, and meet ya’ll in webchat.? When’s the big day, PK?

MemberI wouldn’t do it, not so much because it’s a slight on the other girl, but because it’s spamming.
If I were a buyer I wouldn’t buy from a girl who spammed me either, but guys can be really obtuse sometimes. Which is why spam still exists!

MemberI have seen a few black girls selling their panties online…if I come across any of them I’ll post them here.? You might also check the listings at Panty Trust, or maybe try googling for “black worn panties”
HTH!

MemberSounds like a nice rich chestnut could be a good color for you KinkyGhirl.? Have you thought about having your hair straightened?? I used to spend hours blowing-out, trying to get mine straight, until a quick treatment with a home-straightening kit saved me the trouble.
Or alternatively, you could get it layered a bit and really emphasisze the curl.
Warmer and more mysterious for winter, I like that!? ?:)
