Anecdotally, this platform gives liquidity to your otherwise unsellable clothes, and that is the big appeal.

If you have a dress you’ll no longer wear, you have a few online platforms to sell it on, but they’re not known for fashionable clothing. Nobody will be looking for your clothes on there organically. It drives the price of your clothes down, if you’re even able to sell them at all.

A lot of people use this to recycle interesting fashion and keep their closets and outfits interesting at a really low cost, as my partner does.

You do have flippers of course, it’s common enough that they call Depop-flipped items “repops”. I suspect this can be profitable, but you need to source your items at a great discount.
