Need to make ends meet - salary tax on selling my 800d?

[Hahmoo]

Hello all

I have a Canon EOS800D that I used to take out a lot more than I do now. I don't shoot with it very often anymore so looking at scaling down a bit and selling it. I was wondering if I would pay any tax on it because I didn't pay anything for it in the first place, as it was received as a gift? I've looked at this salary calculator (https://www.income-tax.co.uk/)which has been kind of helpful but not totally answered my question. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance

No, assuming it was a personal gift, just sell it and use the money for whatever you need, there is no tax due

If I were you I'd assume that tax was paid when the camera was purchased.

I’m assuming you’re a spammer.

It was a personal gift, yep, thanks for putting my mind to rest!

My apologies if this isn't an appropriate topic, but it is a genuine concern of mine.
