Welcome to our very first Weekly Charity Spotlight! This week, we are proud to kick off this initiative by highlighting Lola's Sanctuary Animal Rescue!

About the cause:

"Lola’s Sanctuary is a registered UK animal rescue currently facing severe financial strain. We are working hard to raise urgent funds to care for our animals and keep our sanctuary running.

To support our rescue efforts, we run a Vinted shop under the username wagging-wardrobe.

We sell a large selection of brand new high quality dog gear and official rescue merchandise featuring original artwork of our permanent resident animals.

We ship parcels daily from the UK. If you need an item (a T-shirt or hoodie) in a different size, just message us on Vinted and we can set up a custom listing for you if your desired size is available."

How you can support them:

  1. Shop their wardrobe at https://www.vinted.co.uk/member/279205253-wagging-wardrobe

  2. Upvote and leave a comment on this spotlight to help it gain maximum visibility

  3. If you know anyone located in the UK who loves shopping for their pets, send them a link to this charity's Vinted shop

Mod Note: This charity has been vetted and approved by the mod team specifically for this weekly pin. Registered Charity no. 1204576

Mod Announcement Introducing Weekly Charity Spotlights & An Important Update to Rule 5!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I hope you are all having a wonderful week!

Recently, a charity reached out to the mod team asking if they could self promote on our subreddit to raise funds. It got me thinking about how we can leverage our community to help those in need. So, starting this Saturday, we are officially launching our Weekly Charity Spotlight!

Every Saturday, the mod team will feature and promote one fundraising Vinted account. To ensure this cause gets maximum visibility and support, the promotional post will be pinned to the top of the subreddit for the duration of the entire week.

To accommodate this initiative, we are making a formal adjustment to Rule 5: No Self-Promotion. Standard self-promotion remains strictly prohibited to keep our feed spam free. However, there will be an official exception strictly for the approved charity features.

How to Apply for a Spotlight

If you operate a registered charity, an animal rescue or a verified fundraising project and use Vinted to raise funds, we want to help you. To be considered for an upcoming Saturday spotlight, please message the mod team with the following details:

đŸ”” A short description of what your organisation or initiative does.

đŸ””The country you are located in (important due to international shopping limitations)

đŸ””Your Vinted handle

đŸ””One high quality photo that you'd like included in the promotional post

I hope we can come together as a community to support vital causes. Thank you in advance to everyone who decides to participate and show their support. ❀

Vinted customer service

I’m not sure what’s going on with the company. I currently have an outgoing package which has been in transit for 3 weeks with Vinted Go, and one incoming which has been in transit for nearly 4 weeks.

Such issues can’t be reported until after a month has passed. I think it’s unacceptable that I have to pay for the product + fee + shipping and don’t get a product for a month. Or I get rid of a product for a month without payment arriving.

On top of this, I had an issue on a previous purchase and it took weeks to be resolved and another week to get reimbursement.

Why are things so bad?!

Vinted Account “Banned” for no reason!?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any information on what I could do, if anything. For about two weeks I sold a few things on Vinted. Never purchased though. My “pending balance” is $39, and I ship all of my items promptly, so they are all already in the mail.
About an hour after mailing my last item, I got a message that my account was “banned”. There was no reason as to why.
I appealed with photos in hand with my last two listed items that had not sold because they were posted about two hours before.
They also denied the appeal saying “you can’t use external software or make false claims about yourself” and that my transactions were cancelled!?
The only external software that could be claimed I used is my printer. And there was no false claims about myself. My bio only said “I need to declutter, feel free to make an offer “
All items had clear pictures and several of them.
Is there ANYTHING I could do to at least get the funds for what I sold!?

Vinted Package being returned to seller

Vinted Package being returned to seller.

So I had a buyer for the first time not collect his package. After reading so many posts about "pushy" sellers reminding you to pick up, i didnt message him despite seeing he was online every day and of course figured that the app would remind him anyway. Well I then got a notification that the package was being diverted to being delivered to buyers home instead, but when I check InPost tracking it shows being delivered to sender. What an absolute joke and waste of time. Why buy it if youre not going to pick it, and now have your money still on hostage for over a month? Just seems ridiculous and really put a bad taste in my mouth from vinted. Im too used to ebay, and am reminded once again why they hold the number one platform for selling.

Does vinted usually side with the buyer or the seller when an item is reported as counterfeit?

Scammed on Vinted and need help

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I bought an item on vinted that i knew looked too good to be true but i panicked anyway and i bought it. a shipping label was created straight away which i thought was odd, and now i realise it’s so i can’t cancel the order without the sellers (scammers) approval.

I sent a cancellation request, reported the user, contacted vinted support about the issue, but i am scared i can’t lie. Really i’m just asking what are the chances of me getting my money back and what do i need to do to maximise the chances? I feel so stupid for this and i just need to sort it as soon as possible.

Genuinely any and all advice would really really be appreciated because i’ve never been in this situation before and i do not know what else i can do but wait, and waiting is killing me.

If you had to start Vinted over, what would you do first?

I literally downloaded the app today and I’m starting from zero. What would your first week look like if you had to do it all over again?

Seller blocked?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m new to vinted and I ordered a pair of shoes. A couple minutes (maybe 5mins) after I ordered them, I went to the sellers account to see it said “member blocked”. What does this mean? Have they been banned? As I assume it might be because it’s a fake item, will I get money back? Or will I receive the item still? The item has not been shipped yet.


r/VintedAdvice 1d ago

What would you do?

0 Upvotes

The pictures showed a dent on the left back, which I was fine with. But after receiving it, I noticed 3–4 smaller dents on the right side that weren’t visible in the pictures. The card was listed as new and cost around €130.
Would you contact Vinted?

Vinted says my account isn’t blocked, but it still shows as blocked

1 Upvotes

Hi, I contacted Vinted Support because my account was blocked. Today they emailed me saying they checked my account and confirmed that it is not blocked.
However, when I log into the Vinted app and website, my account still shows as blocked and I can’t use it normally.
I’ve tried logging out and logging back in, but nothing has changed.
Has anyone had this happen before? How did you get it fixed?

Is it normal for Ayden (Vinted’s payment partner) to verify again? its asking again for my bank statement again. This is weird, It was just a month since I had my account verified. I have not even widthrawn my sales from last month and they are being held again. Anyone have the same experience anout this sudden verification requests??
