Wasn't Wayfair also caught selling stuff to ICE?

[toast0]

Wayfair is like a retail outlet for garbage products right? Why wouldn't they sell to anyone with money?

[surfingdino]

It's a marketplace that also handles the global shipping, warehousing, and delivery of goods on behalf of the sellers. It's a low-margin business that puts a lipstick on the pig that is a bunch of incumbents in the manufacturing and global shipping industries. I do not approve of how they got rid of employees, but I do not envy them. Their partners love mainframes, MS-DOS apps, and faxes. It's hard to work with them.

I don't know if they do this for all of their products, but one bed frame that I purchased from them turned out to be a bed frame you could buy on Amazon for half the cost, just under a more upscale name.

(That bed frame lasted two years. I replaced it with a Thuma. Incredible product.)

Eh idk, I've had some Wayfair stuff in the past and it's all been solid. I'm sure a lot of it is subpar though.

It this really an issue? It's selling chairs to a legitimate government agency. People's politics have become so skewed. That's just completely normal behavior.

ICE as in the US federal law enforcement agency? Yes, US companies do sell products to the US government sometimes.

What’s wrong with selling furniture to the ICE?

[schwartzworld]

Yes, they had a contract for furnishing the detention centers.
