Comment on EU tax officials confront the most pressing legal question of our time: If you sell RuneScape gold to someone and they use it to buy a magic sword, do you still have to pay taxes?
Yeah you pay VAT because you are buying a service. But you “gf” has to collect it and pay it to the tax agency.
You don’t pay VAT on a personal transaction though. But the girlfriend would probably have to pay income tax.
We should know if the gf is selling herself as a second hand sale or if it’s a recurring economic activity. If so, she should register in VAT and collect it.
(Legality of that economic activity may differ by country)
