They're a niche company dealing with second hand streetware items. How on earth does Tik Tok or Tampax relate with Depop? P.S. As a general rule of thumb we try to avoid personal remarks in here when replying to a person. Just to keep the place a bit more civilized.

Depop really isn't a niche company. It's effectively instagram but the clothes are for sale. Companies relate to the consumers the same way they do with instagram influencers, product placement.
