This is really good news. Based on what I saw yesterday of the ridiculous way people were selling stuff with post-it notes and conveyor belts, it gave TikTok the feeling it was another WhatNot from the 80's. If they ban or prevent all that, then TikTok substantially ups their game from selling $0.50 worth of beads and $1.50 purses to another level.

What I find really interested is there were all the stories about how talkshoplive was first rumored and then were going to partner with Tiktok to be their Live Shopping partner and then nothing. The best I can find is a bunch of people that advertize their TSL show on TicTok.

Everyday there was an article on it and then nothing.

Not sure what happened. Maybe TikTok wanted and option to buy TSL and they wouldn't provide. Who knows.

TSL loss is Verb's gain with the largest giant in the industry.
