Scavenger Life Episode 263: How To Run an eBay Business by Yourself

Ryanne’s birthday was this weekend which is why we’re bringing you an interview with a Scavenger Supreme.
We met Ben of VooDoo Vintage for the first time recently when we stayed in New Orleans. Even though we already knew some of his story from Wendy when she interviewed him three years ago, it was fun when Ben took us on a scavenger tour of New Orleans where we visited a number of estate sales. With a truck full of goods, we went back to his apartment and shipped stuff together (like true scavengers should!).
Ben makes a living through selling on eBay and a couple other streams of income (as a message therapist and landlord). He mainly scavenges at estates sales which seem plentiful in New Orleans. Ben also works alone which can be difficult since eBay requires an enormous attention to detail each and every day. In this conversation, Ben shares how he’s figured out how to work solo and be very efficient in his scavenging and selling.
In Ben, we found a kindred spirit since he also has been ruined to ever getting a full-time job. We talked about traveling, sleeping late, and real estate. As always, Ben will be answering any questions in the comments below. Hope you had a good week!

Scavenger Life Episode 261: Yearly Update from Mikey & Wendy of TheGoodLifeLab.com

This week we’re doing our yearly update with Mikey and Wendy. They were our inspiration to moving out to a rural community and finding ways to live outside the normal 9-5. We, in turn, turned them onto scavenging and eBay as a way to earn income.
They helped us start this podcast and you hear them on many of the early episodes. You can listen to our previous conversations with them over the past several years.
Mikey and Wendy still live in rural New Mexico, still sell on eBay, and have gotten involved in many new projects (like running regular ultra marathons). The process of evolving is the most fun part of this lifestyle. You can follow along with their adventures on their blog, The Good Life Lab.
Hope your week went well. Enjoy!
