Ebay store

Looking for thoughts on (yet another) “Sell it for you on ebay” store investment.
Found a local storefront (former t-shirt store) that’s been empty for 12 mos, heart of town, in the 200k range.
Seller will consider a lease-option (5yrs) which may make a good test-run, though I’d prefer to put down roots.

I know some have made a decent income with this concept, but completely blank on the future of this field and longevity stats…Any ideas / first-hand experiences?
