cotracting and e-commerce
If you're buying and selling through Amazon or using PayPal carefully select your accounting software. Some handle it. Some don't. Some do but it's pain.

Hi,
Sorry about the typo...
@NibblyPig: Yeah, I’m planning to buy and sell initially.
@TheFaQQer: thanks for the tip.
I'm with Nixon William at the moment, when I approached them about this, they weren’t able to advice as they specialise in contracting.
Thanks.

Make sure you're up to date with the VATMOSS rules if you're selling online in Europe.

Cheers!
Accountants dealing with that sort of setup? Pretty much every single one. Are you under the impression commerce is a rare and unusual business?

Unless your are running a tat shop you need to come and post in the professional forums where you well get some solid advice from posters that are very knowledgeable and care about your situation.

Are you going to buy and sell items?
Sorry I don't know any accountants that deal with people who set up a company to buy and sell items.
