NEW YORK, Sept. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Spring, a top
online retail destination, is giving eBay shoppers access to
hundreds of brands across clothing, shoes, accessories, jewelry,
beauty and more, including coveted merchandise from David Yurman, Rag & Bone, Mango and Chloe.
The Spring storefront will function like a boutique where eBay
shoppers can find, browse and buy all the brands they love in one
place.
"Spring's mission is to bring top brands to consumers at a
variety of tastes, style and prices," said Alan Tisch, Founder & CEO of Spring. "Our
new partnership with eBay helps further this mission and expand our
reach. Both Spring and eBay are committed to offering unparalleled
selection across the best brands – including the newest, hottest
styles, sold-out or hard-to-find merchandise, and great deals for
every price and style."
With more than 171 million active buyers worldwide and 370
million downloads of eBay apps, the eBay marketplace is uniquely
positioned to leverage its unparalleled scale to connect brands
with shoppers. Like other top eBay Fashion sellers, the Spring
storefront (http://www.ebay.com/usr/shop_spring) makes it easy for
shoppers to browse and buy many brands, at various price points,
from one dedicated destination.
"The Spring and eBay partnership is evidence of a growing
trend in which retailers are partnering – instead of competing –
with other retailers," said Jill
Ramsey, Vice President of Merchandising at eBay. "We
recently debuted a new brand campaign – "Fill Your Cart With Color"
– signaling a deep commitment to delivering a more visual and
personalized site experience. Now, with Spring, we can bring even
more coveted merchandise to our buyers, making it easier than ever
to discover their own version of perfect."
The addition of Spring as a marquee eBay seller with a dedicated
storefront is one of the myriad of ways eBay continues to offer
incredible selection. Shoppers from around the world can browse
eBay's reimagined homepage and 1.1 billion listings to discover
what is right for them based on their individual interests. By
combining Spring's far-reaching access to brands with eBay's global
platform and tech innovations (like Shop the Look, Image Search,
Find It On eBay and ShopBot), the eBay and Spring partnership
signals a new era of brand collaborations.
