Question
I am selling a second-hand item and buying a new one. Do I need to give tithes from the sale?
Answer
Hello,
You need to give tithe only from the profit of the sale. For example, if you bought an item for ten shekels and sold it for twenty, you need to tithe from the ten shekels profit.
Usually, when selling an item that was previously in your possession, there is no additional profit, and you are exempt from tithing.
