Risks

Niche e-commerce platforms like StockX and Poshmark may draw away eBay's customers.

Social media platforms with shopping features could divert traffic from eBay.

Direct-to-consumer brands bypassing marketplaces may reduce eBay's seller base.

Differentiation

The platform provides robust buyer and seller protections, enhancing trust in transactions.

eBay's vast product selection includes new, refurbished, and second-hand items.

Upsides

The rise of social commerce offers eBay opportunities to integrate social shopping features.

Increased focus on sustainability aligns with eBay's refurbished and second-hand product categories.
