Key Terms

gross merchandise volume, GMV

2 terms

gross merchandise volume financial

"fashion generating well north of $10 billion in gross merchandise volume on the marketplace"

Gross merchandise volume is the total dollar value of all goods and services sold through a sales platform or marketplace during a given period, measured before subtracting fees, returns, discounts or other adjustments. Investors use it to gauge the size and momentum of a business—like counting every dollar that passes through a busy market to assess demand—but it is not the same as company revenue or profit since the operator typically retains only a portion.

GMV financial

"As fashion grows on the platform, delivering 10% year-over-year GMV growth in the U.S. in 2025"

Gross merchandise value (GMV) is the total dollar value of all goods and services sold through a platform or marketplace over a given period, measured before deducting fees, returns, or discounts. Investors watch GMV to gauge the raw size and growth of customer activity—like counting every ticket sold at a concert before subtracting organizer costs—while remembering it is not the same as revenue or profit.

From 1999 Tom Ford Gucci to L.L.Bean Boat and Totes, 10 New Yorkers share what's moving from their own closets to the marketplace, and what they're making room to buy next

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, eBay unveiled The NYC Edit — an online editorial guide highlighting what style insiders in New York are buying and selling on eBay, featuring curated selections and insights from some of the city's most in-the-know tastemakers.

eBay brought together 10 leading cultural voices, stylists and creators living in New York who use eBay to sell and buy their most coveted and trending pieces, including stylist and fashion editor Dara Allen, actor and comedian Owen Thiele, and fashion writer Emilia Petrarca.

Fashion's inner circle has relied on eBay as the "if-you-know-you-know" engine of personal style for years. As peer-powered resale events like clothing swaps and closet sales gain momentum — and according to eBay's Recommerce Report, nine in ten Gen Z and Millennial consumers plan to increase pre-loved spending this year — eBay continues to foster access to the best of community resale, sharing what's moving among style insiders.

From hard-to-find vintage icons like a 2000 Prada Lipstick Print Silk Skirt and enduring wardrobe staples to distinctive home pieces like Vintage Bauhaus Lamps to brands resurging in interest like Calvin Klein, The NYC Edit unveils the defining items of the resale economy. The NYC Edit is available at ebay.com/nycedit, where style seekers can browse each curator's storefront to shop the pieces they're buying and selling, and easily list what's currently in-demand on the marketplace.

"New York style is simultaneously cutting-edge and nostalgic, as the city is always in flux," said fashion writer and tastemaker Emilia Petrarca. "For The NYC Edit, I chose pieces that reflect eBay's incredible selection of personal deep cuts, and capture a recent past that New Yorkers seem to be yearning for and rediscovering right now. I'm also selling a few things I love from my own closet that I'm ready to pass along to someone else in the style community. There are also a few things from my own closet that I'm finally ready to pass along to someone else in the style community."

Resale culture has been thriving on eBay for more than three decades. With 135 million active users and fashion generating well north of $10 billion in gross merchandise volume on the marketplace in 2025, eBay remains the destination that keeps resale economy — and style — in circulation. As fashion grows on the platform, delivering 10% year-over-year GMV growth in the U.S. in 2025, The NYC Edit continues to drive that momentum — online and beyond.
