Depop is a secondhand fashion marketplace built like a social feed, with a young user base. Etsy bought it in July 2021 as a bet on resale, then sold it to eBay on 30 July 2026 for a purchase price of $1.2 billion, about $1.4 billion in cash once adjustments and interest were included. Under eBay it sits beside the site that first made trading between strangers online workable.
Etsy sold Depop, the secondhand fashion marketplace it had owned since July 2021, to eBay. The purchase price was $1.2 billion; with $200 million of net purchase price adjustments and interest, Etsy received approximately $1.4 billion in cash when the sale completed on 30 July 2026. The deal moved the most youth-focused resale app in Britain and the United States to the company that built online secondhand trading in the first place.
