In 2007, Valley sold his first used book on Amazon. He hasn't worked for someone else since.
Setting out to never work again, his Amazon-selling journey has taken him from barnyard auctions to dumpsters, all in pursuit of cheap used books he could sell for big profits on Amazon.
In 2012, he began documenting his journey on FBA Mastery (.com), revealing "every trick to quit your job selling used books (& more) on Amazon."

In these pages, you'll find acts of trespassing, exploiting unpopular loopholes, quasi-homelessness, and unapologetic Marketplace policy-breaking - all in pursuit of Amazon profit.
The pursuit of personal freedom is the guiding principle behind everything you're about to read.
