Depop is a peer-to-peer fashion resale app that combines elements of a marketplace with a social feed. Owned by Etsy since 2021, it is particularly popular with teenagers and young adults interested in vintage, second-hand, and sustainable fashion. Unlike Vinted, Depop has a social element — users can follow sellers, comment on listings, and build a following. Listings often feature the seller modelling the clothes, which creates specific risks around image-based content.
Teenagers use Depop to buy affordable second-hand clothes and to sell their own items. Many aspiring teenage entrepreneurs build small Depop businesses selling thrifted or customised clothing. Because sellers typically photograph themselves wearing items, there is a significant image-sharing dimension to Depop that distinguishes it from other resale platforms.
Profile Photos
ตำแหน่ง: Listing photos and profile photo
ตั้งค่าเป็น: Avoid identifiable details in listing photos — no school uniform, visible address, or identifiable location
Many teenagers photograph themselves wearing items for sale. Ensuring listing photos do not include school uniform, identifiable locations, or other personal information is important.
Shipping Only

ตั้งค่าเป็น: Use Depop shipping — do not arrange collection or share address
Depop provides a shipping label system. Never share a home address directly with a buyer — use the platform's shipping system only.
