eBay and Vestiaire Collective Want an Exemption from Trump’s Tariffs

eBay and Vestiaire Collective are both urging President Trump to grant them an exemption from the upcoming tariffs on Chinese goods. The companies argue that the tariffs will hurt their businesses and ultimately harm consumers.

eBay’s CEO has stated that the tariffs will increase costs for sellers, who will then pass those costs onto buyers. This could result in higher prices for consumers and potentially fewer sales for eBay.

Vestiaire Collective, a luxury fashion resale platform, is also concerned about the impact of the tariffs. The company relies heavily on international trade and fears that the tariffs will disrupt their supply chain and increase prices for their customers.

The companies are joining a chorus of voices in the business community who are pushing back against the tariffs. They argue that the tariffs will not only hurt American businesses, but also alienate key trading partners.

President Trump has not yet responded to the requests for exemptions from eBay and Vestiaire Collective. It remains to be seen whether he will grant them any relief from the tariffs.
