The gear is personal property, not business property subject to income reporting such as retail sales with cost-of-goods offsets. Nevertheless, if Wojciech reports the sale on Schedule D (proceeds of $30K) and also shows the original cost (of $30K), there is no profit or gain. This reporting would only be necessary if he sold the gear on a public reporting entity such as Paypal, an entity that issues 1099's. Otherwise it's just a one-off personal property sale.
Regardless, the net proceeds are ZERO. No tax consequence.
