An Update And Income Tax Professionals

I am now over $3000,I was well on the way to $4000 but the $300 in eBay fees that I we will get in the way of that, oh well. Cost of doing business. We decided to have our taxes done by a professional in case we could reduce the bill somehow. nOt only was their final number higher, they charged us over $500.oo for the privelege. Please , if you use a tax service , get the price up front. I got the hourly rate ,but not a final price. Big Mistake!
