The sales of local souring strategists can provide an important benefit than rivals such as Temu, Shen and Amazon. However, second -hand companies still have to tackle the challenges that come up with the ongoing economic uncertainty and consumer spending habits.
When it comes to it, the Etsy looks slightly weak. The main business model of Etsy is focused on handcraped and vintage equipment, which costs high. Therefore, although Etsy can not feel the effects of sellers, consumers still hesitate to spend, which reduces the active buyers by 3.4 % year year, making it 88.5 million. The habit of buyers was 11 % lower, with the total number of 6.2 million.
In addition, Eti reported $ 8.9 % to $ 2.3 billion in overall trading sales (GMS) for marketplace (GMS).
On a positive note, Etsy is continuing to take advantage of its own ownership, which is a second -hand fashion platform that is popular among the declining recession. Since receiving the depop in 2021, the platform has achieved a record high GM. The company did not disclose specific personalities.
Silverman said, “Ati has a strong track record for nauseating the turbulent macroeconomic conditions, and we have confidence in our ability to continue adapting.”
On the contrary, E is in a strong position because high -price buyers are choosing used and renewed goods, which the company has said is more than 40 % of its inventory. The company reports that consumers seeking to avoid revenue have increased their costs, which has given eBay a concrete start to a quarter.
“We have witnessed healthy volume trends due to strength in our focus category, and in the near future, what could be a slight demand by consumers concerned about the growing costs and complexity in US customs,”
The company’s total trading volume (GMV) increased to $ 18.8 billion, while revenue increased from 1 % to $ 2.58 billion.
