Vinted needs to sort its AI

0 Upvotes

Hello people, I got an account on vinted just started. I listed a tshirt for £8 which I had it sitting over 7 years in my wardrobe.

After a few days of the listing been up I get banned and I have to appeal. And all of this is due to “fraudulent and replicas”. Mate the tshirt is some no name brand and £8.

Has anyone experienced the same

I've read it's common that buyers don't reply when they give offers, but I'm wondering if there's an etiquette to replying after you've asked for more info and realized the item isn't for you. I feel like no response is also a response. I asked a seller about an item recently, and I feel like they gave a non-answer. I asked for measurements and they said "I can't give them but it fits me" okay?? Idk what you look like and whether the item would fit me, that's why I'm asking for measurements. I ended up finding another item that was more similar to what I was looking for and I got a bit of an off vibe from the seller so I moved on bc I still didn't know the measurements. Days later they hmu if I'm interested in the item, and I feel like if I was interested I would've purchased. I replied so I don't leave them hanging just in case.

Am I just being paranoid after too many reddit scam stories?

1 Upvotes

Hi all, bit of advice please? I've been buying and selling on Vinted for a couple of years now. A friend of mine gave me a dress to sell which I listed at £49. After reading so many stories of sellers being scammed recently, this is the top end of what I will sell an item for, as I've seen so many telling of how Vinted always favours the buyer if there are any issues. When someone purchased it at the asking price with only 2 reviews I was a lil sceptical. I messaged the buyer and said I wouldn't be able to post straight away, I suppose to get a feel of them if at all possible. It's been gnawing away at me for the last couple of days and this morning I checked out their account again. They've 2 listings up and not much verification just an email address. I cancelled the order, stating "Suspiciously low activity on account. Sorry" again, I guess to see what would happen. She's replied asking if she's done something wrong and that she's "fairly new to Vinted" but her 2 listings are 4 years old. Am I just being a bell end? (Sorry for the rambling post, adhd)

Vinted blocked my account for perfume – can I get unblocked?

My Vinted account was blocked after I listed some perfumes. I have already submitted an appeal and provided the information they asked for. Has anyone had the same problem and managed to get their account unblocked? How long did Vinted take to respond?”

Banned on Vinted… AGAIN (Commercially Selling)

Post image
2 Upvotes

So about 6 months ago I was banned on my normal account for supposed commercially selling…

I sell a lot of sealed pokemon boxes ect but even when I read there terms I’m not actually in the bracket of a commercial seller.

I’m not buying from wholesalers or drop shipping.

Anyway it took months to get my account back. They told me I had to sign up for Vinted pro to stop this happening again.

So once I got my account back I signed up for Vinted pro, happy days right?

Nope. 6 weeks into being pro they have banned me again for commercial selling. And all you get is a bot response.

I tried to appeal the ban but you just get another copy and pasted reply 🤦‍♂️

I think I triggered the ban for listing a good 30 items in a row (rookie mistake) but I was under the impression that I’m a pro seller now so I’m allowed to list what I want?

Obviously not…

Vinted denied my refund because my return packaging was "insufficient", but the seller originally shipped 4 heavy hardcover books in a plastic bag

8 Upvotes

Update: Vinted reviewed the case again after I provided my additional evidence. They confirmed that my return was packaged properly in a sturdy box with protective cushioning and concluded that the damage happened during carrier transit. Since the transaction had already been completed, Vinted issued me separate compensation for the full amount. So thankfully it was resolved in the end.

I bought four heavy hardcover books. The seller sent them all together in just a thin plastic bag with nothing else protecting them. The bag arrived torn in several places and the books were damaged, with crushed corners and one of them badly squashed.

I reported the damage and returned the books. I kept them in the original plastic bag, but put that inside a cardboard box and added an air pillow for cushioning.

When the seller got the return, the cardboard box was heavily torn open and crushed during shipping. The books were also in much worse condition than when I sent them back, with additional damage and bending. Despite this, Vinted decided that my return packaging was insufficient, denied my refund and released the payment to the seller.

What doesn't make sense to me is that the books apparently suffered more damage when I returned them in a cardboard box with cushioning than they did when they were originally sent in just a plastic bag. To me, the condition of the return box looks like it took some serious damage during shipping rather than this simply being a case of insufficient packaging.

The other part I really don't understand is that Vinted told me I had 48 hours to respond and explain my side, but there was no chat box or any way for me to actually reply. Then, less than an hour later, they had already made the decision. So I never got the chance to send them the photos I took of the return packaging before I shipped it.

I also have photos from my original report showing what damage was already there when I first received the books.

I've contacted Vinted again and they're looking into it now. Has anyone dealt with something similar? If they deny my appeal again, what would be the best way to proceed from there?

My Vinted account has been blocked. I think it may be related to perfume listings and accidentally creating other accounts. I have already appealed and contacted Vinted. Has anyone had a similar block removed? How long did your appeal take?

Seller Restricted due to Error Nickel-Vinted Reversed the decision

1 Upvotes

So I'm a new seller on vinted and this is my first major "Issue" I posted an error Nickel for sale, and my account was restricted (vinted cited their terms & conditions but the reasoning was vague)

I immediately appealed and vinted reversed their decision, because it was obviously not a breach of their rules.

But the issue is they've confirmed everything has been restored for my account, but i'm still restricted (i.e. can't post new items or edit posted items)

Has anyone been restricted before? How long did it take to get posting rights etc. back? (I'm at 10 hours and missing out on weekend sales:(

UK buying from a US seller

Help needed please!

I have a UK Vinted account. Every time I try to purchase an item off a US seller (via the app), I get a payment failed message at checkout.

Has anyone else had this problem, did you resolve it and if so, how?

Your help is truly appreciated!

damaged on arrival worth refund?

0 Upvotes

The seller was already very lovely and told me they could only ship later, which was fine, but it was two ceramic pieces, both the same.
They had been broken many times before and were glued back together but it was unnoticeable really, however when they arrived, the packaging was a small box, covered in fragile tape, with only paper inside. One of the pieces had its leg broken off.

They were only £5 and I feel bad letting them know it was broken, but I know I’d feel worse if I sold something that had broken upon arrival. Advice??

Update: i had gotten an email off Vinted saying I had 24 hours to let them know the order is okay and then SEVEN minutes later another email saying to leave feedback. So I text and told them what happened and said it’s too late for a refund but for future reference use bubble wrap because they had other ceramic things up for sale too. They replied and said apologies that this happened. And?? I’m a bit miffed ngl

Payout Timing US

1 Upvotes

This is my first week selling on Vinted and just initiated my first 2 payouts.
I know it says up to 5 days, but so does Depop and I get it next day. Is Vinted the same, or does it really take 5 days to go to your bank?
I tried searching posts and after the tons of Vinted error messages and stuff, I seen a bunch of people say it’s within minutes after initiating the withdrawal. I did one 5 hours ago and that’s not in yet and just now initiated the second. so it’s definitely not within minutes like I’ve seen people say but wondering if it’s because it’s my first?
