#22- OH THE DRAMA! Why Is There A Social Media Backlash On Resellers?
This week's episode is all about THRIFTING and RESELLING!
Is it ethical? Do resellers of popular platforms like Depop take garments away from low-income families? What's the alternative?
I recently read an article in Buzzfeed News about the backlash a Depop seller is facing on TikTok after posting a thrifting haul for her Depop shop. There have been some very divided and heated opinions!

I also went down the Twitter rabbit hole and explored a thread on the ethics of retooling and customizing vintage clothing. Should vintage garments be altered?
Check out the original thread HERE!
