What they argued
Members of Classifieds Marketplaces Europe (CME) operate online marketplaces across 17 European countries where we empower our users to reduce their purchase of new products by promoting circular consumption choices. By selling their pre-owned goods, our users play an active role in enabling the circular transition.
Classifieds Marketplaces Europe (CME) welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the European Commission's consultation on the proposed Digital Fairness Act (DFA). CME is a coalition of EU-headquartered second-hand marketplaces. Our members connect individuals and local businesses, making it easier to buy and sell second-hand goods, championing sustainability, and empowering consumers.
The Coalition Classifieds Marketplaces Europe (“Coalition”) is a group of EU headquartered companies, including Adevinta, OLX Group, and Schibsted, operating online classifieds platforms that connect buyers and sellers to safely, easily, and conveniently exchange goods and services in their local communities. From furniture to fashion, from cars to collectibles, from real estate to jobs.
Classifieds Marketplaces Europe (CME) contribution focuses on one of the options explored in the consultation, namely the possibility to further increase the role of online marketplaces beyond the existing frameworks of the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR).
Classifieds Marketplaces Europe (CME), a coalition of European second-hand online marketplaces, including Adevinta, OLX, Vend, Vinted, Wallapop, and CustoJusto, welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the Commissions reflections on the functioning of the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC). We believe that a revision of this framework could significantly improve its effectiveness and proportionality.
