Customer Service

People come first, and I love my customers on eBay.  I represent everything in good faith and try for only good surprises.  If you do have a problem, please contact me directly by selecting "Send the seller a message" and do not select "I want to return my item", as it will delay the process and possibly damage my account standing.  Be kind.

Shipping

I ship daily.  I like to conserve packaging, so please help me combine shipments for you.  International orders are encouraged, but for items over $50, I will invoice you for priority shipping for select countries. Contact me for more information.

About Thumb Out

That picture of me is from the happiest time of my life.

I started on eBay a few years ago.  But my story starts before that.  In 2010, I was a manager for a business in Chicago.  I was completely unhappy and stuck.  After a particularly rough winter at work and a breakup, I knew I had to change.  I gave notice and headed to the Big Island of Hawai'i to live on a farm and plant trees.

I didn't know it then, but I would end up staying on the Big Island for a full year.  


Finally living my dream

Half way through the year, I left the safety of the farm and camped on the island's beaches, living out of my backpack.  I woke up every morning with no destination.  I followed the beauty of the island and trusted my intuition.  Hitchhiking became a way of life.  When a stranger does something nice for you, it makes you think the whole world is kind-hearted.  Imagine starting each day that way, it's a wonderful way to live. 

And that's where the "ThumbOut" eBay name comes from.  You never know which car will be your ride, so Keep your thumb out! 

The most powerful adventure was my solo journey to see flowing lava.  I walked 3 miles over cooled lava fields under a full moon.  I reached the flow at 1am, close enough to poke it with a stick.  Seeing lava in real life has been a childhood dream.  Once I got a taste of this kind of adventure, I never went back to my old way of living.  But I wasn't sure what was next for me...




Today

Digital nomadism and location independent income are my passion now.  This past year I lived in Thailand for 9 months, house-sitting on the beach.  I'm currently practicing as a life coach.   I want to help people take the leap into their passion, particularly those seeking a flexible lifestyle with more travel.  I am also studying computer science and I teach English, and I'm a picker on eBay for a few months a year when I'm back in the US!  Thank you for reading.  Many eBayers have sent me their story after reading mine and I love it. 

As they say in Thailand, "Chok-Dee" (Good Luck!); Keep your thumb out, and carry on,
