Downgrading chase sapphire preferred?

My wife has the Chase sapphire preferred and I want to downgrade it, since I already have 1 and I dont want to pay the fee twice.

Can I still downgrade it to the original Chase Freedom card? How do I ask Chase to do this?

And how soon in the futur could I try and re-sign her up for the Chase sapphire preferred again so she could get the sign up bonus again? 4 years after the initial sign up?

After ebay fees and getting a tax form at the end of the year - how much do you net on a sale?

I'm in 22% bracket or so - would i be paying almost 40% in ebay fees and taxes on my sales? From my understanding, you shouldn't deduct any expenses when filing hobby income? I.e. buy a card for $50 and sell for $60, you can't deduct that $50 cost basis to net out to a $10 sale. You get taxed on the $60 sale.

Anybody able to confirm my understanding is correct? Is selling cards in cash the way to go, even getting 70% of ebay comps?
