I still travel with my current set up, but I have to set up a base camp so to speak and rent a local warehouse for my inventory. I'm then limited to staying near that area. I want to move to no strings attached to a specific location other than my returns..

Have you considered finding a manufacturer of XYZ product that has a minimal web presence instead of reselling smaller items that you purchase on your travels? You could then do everything that you just mentioned without having an inventory, be completely mobile.
Several years ago I had a deal with a manufacturer of a piece of niche exercise equipment. They had a marketing company working for them, but I was able to sell better than they were. I utilized Amazon, eBay, my own website, and a few other outlets.
I had no inventory. No physical responsibilities. I marketed my aspects and handled my sales but they took care of delivering the product, returns, warranties, etc. I did not make enough to live on selling that one product, but I only spent five hours a month working on it and it brought in anywhere between $1-2k profit monthly.
