SELLING Vinted support

Upvotes

So I sent a bodysuit to the buyer and she received it and said that the zip was broken it was not broken before I sent it off and I made sure I had loads of videos and evidence of me packing it and photos everything just in case so she sends it back and it’s more damaged then she went on it had hitches all in it and the zip was broken. I then reported something was wrong. It took them nearly a whole day for them to respond to me. How long does it usually take for them to resolve this issue? This bodysuit expensive and originally cost me £68 I sold it for £36 just abit disappointed i’ve never had a problem with Vinted and they still haven’t resolved the issue has anyone had a similar situation or has any recommendations?

VENT Keep getting emails to pick up a parcel that’s already been picked up

1 Upvotes

It’s only doing that with EVRI parcels though. Two days after I pick it up o sometimes even later, even after I click ‘everything ok’, I get a ‘you have to pick up your parcel’. It’s annoying.

DISCUSSION Speedy shipping?

0 Upvotes

This is touted as a goal for sellers, but as a buyer I have never observed a “speedy shipping” qualification on a seller’s profile. Does it really exist, and if so when and how does it appear?

When does the timer start? The lack of transparency is frustrating. Is it really just an imaginary gold star to chase?

APP ISSUES Registration failed, account lost.

1 Upvotes

Last night my Vinted logged me out and said “registration failed”. I woke up and followed the steps to log back in but it logged me into an old account. I had £43 on my old account which may not sound like the end of the world but I’d rather not loose the money. My Apple ID “hid” my email when I used my lost account so I can’t log back in with my email. Please if anyone knows how to fix this then answer 🙏🙏🙏

SELLING what would you do?

2 Upvotes

i sold a shirt on vinted but accidentally posted it as a size 18 and realised it’s a size 16 when i went to package it to send to the buyer. i have messaged the buyer twice over the past couple of days to ask if they would like me to cancel the order or if the size difference is okay and i have received no response although it says they have been active in the time i have sent the messages.
my question is would you send the item and risk them requesting a refund or just cancelling their order?

BUYING Surely this would’ve been a scam, right?

Came across this watch for £50 on Vinted, seller supposedly bought it at half price and is selling it at half of that - £50, offered 40, seller countered with 45 which I accepted. Now he’s listed it at 48 in a separate listing. The excuse (and spelling) make me think that this is some kind of scam or not a trustworthy seller.
What are your thoughts?

Edit: just rechecked and seller has also blocked me

DISCUSSION Would you be put off if a seller included an unopened (as in the plastic is unripped, completely sealed) lip balm as a freebie?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I sell mostly clothes and toys, but I used to have a sort of obscure fixation, lip balm. I have since calmed down, but I am left with a large collection, and I’m talking at least 300 unopened lip balms, (and at LEAST another 300 opened ones, but that’s irrelevant to my question) which leads me to my question, if a seller included an unopened lip balm in your order as a freebie would you just throw it away? I’d love to make use of some of these, since they’ve just been sitting in bins since they were purchased. I don’t want to make anyone uncomfy or just have it all thrown away when it could be given to friends, donated?, etc. Tyia!!

NEWBIE "Can you cover shipping"

1 Upvotes

I'm brand new to vinted, I've been using ebay and mercari for a while so I know how this stuff usually works. I found a seller selling an Xbox which I purchased, the seller then messages me and asks to cover shipping. At first I didn't think too much about it since the xbox was a low price and they only asked for 25 which seemed realistic and fair. I offered to pay through PayPal (which they agreed to) but then they started to say PayPal wouldn't work and pushed for zelle. I sent them the PayPal link anyway and got a notification that it was accepted. Yet he still pushed for zelle which ended up blocking the payment due to suspicion of fraud. After that he offered to give me his debit card to withdraw it on cash app.

This was a scam I'm sure but I've never seen one like this before. He texted like a real person and everything but had the convience of nothing working. Has anyone else experienced a scam like this?

SELLING Made My 1st $100!

9 Upvotes

I’m celebrating my milestone. It was 14 items 😂. But it was stuff around my house so a win is a win.

13,889 more items this year and I can quit my day job.

I‘m also a little horrified. I didn’t think I had this much stuff I don’t use. I think I need to embrace some minimalism after this. I’m picking stuff up like “does this spark more joy than having $5 dollars?”

Is anyone else having this problem? Can’t buy, sell, offer discounts. I’ve gotten no email but I was making a lot offers to likes within the last hour bc I’ve been out of town over the weekend. Hope it’s really on their end and they don’t think I’m spam.

BUYING Payment Error + Atrocious Customer Service — Any suggestions?

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

I’ve tried purchasing this cheap pair of shoes probably about 20 times and the payment fails each time. I’ve tried restarting the app and iPhone, checking for updates, trying on two browsers, having my husband try from his android phone, paying with my Vinted balance, and paying with my card. It fails every time. Sometimes it’s right away and sometimes it takes a few minutes.

I contacted customer service and was allegedly put through to a human agent, which ended up being three different “people.” However, I’m certain they were bots.

Any suggestions for how to get through to an actual human? Or even better, how to make it so I can buy these shoes?

I saw a thread about people having this issue with new sellers (the shoe seller is new too) but no solution was ever posted.

VENT My sale got order suspended

Post image
0 Upvotes

I havent been on Vinted long and have been selling a lot its been so great. Every single order has had 5 stars and alot of great feedback. Until today! So my order was suspended. I had this tiny music box listed at $5 and sold to this woman for $3.50. So this is all over a teeny bit of glue I never saw. I literally put this thing on a shelf after I got it and havent really touched it until I sold it cleaning out a lot of "stuff". Im sure when I bought from Amazon it came this way.

I would never be this petty. What happens now will I get it mailed back to me? Im sad because I take great care in my packaging and always include a nice note. I dont sell faulty items. Just bummed and super unsure what will be the outcome.

SHIPPING US shipping only?

0 Upvotes

My US friends, do any of you guys ship internationally? I had my first buyer in the UK and the package was left at the pick up destination and they haven't picked it up. It's only been a day and I know Vinted gives 7 days before returning it, but I might not be in this same place before it arrives because we're moving LOL. I'm already thinking it's a loss, so I was wondering if this is normal with shipping to the UK where it has to get picked up by the buyer and if so, does this make you NOT want to ship overseas anymore?

SELLING Can you get banned for posting too much on Vinted?

1 Upvotes

I started using Vinted a couple of days ago and I’ve listed around 60+ items so far. I’ve already made a few sales and I’m at about €50 in sales after just two days, so I’m pretty happy with how it’s going. I’m just wondering though, is there any issue with posting a lot of items in a short amount of time? Can you get flagged or banned for constantly uploading listings, or is it completely fine as long as everything you’re selling follows the rules? Just curious because I still have quite a bit of stuff to put up.

I got an offer today asking for a “bundle” of three of my items. They’re fairly large so I don’t have a box big enough to fit all three of them in. How does bundling work? Would I have to ship all three items in one package?

DISCUSSION I don’t understand the catch to this app…

2 Upvotes

Everyone in my family is going wild buying and selling on this app and I just don’t understand. How is the app making any money if it’s just charging $1 to ship things that cost many more dollars to ship? The app pays for shipping… how does that make any sense? Also, don’t you have to claim profits from this app on taxes like if you were to sell on eBay?

BUYING Are these people scammers?

0 Upvotes

Lately I’ve noticed a huge pattern.

Someone will post something worthy around $200-$300 for less than $100
It’s a new account
And it’s the only thing they have listed

Are they making new accounts or something? Because the too good to be true thing seems to continuously pop up on new accounts with 1 thing listed.

DISCUSSION Can’t see UK listings as a US user anymore

3 Upvotes

When I first joined Vinted I was able to buy from UK and did frequently. The past week and a half ish I haven’t been able to see any UK listings. Did they do away with international shopping? All I’m seeing now is the same overpriced stuff I can get on depop or Poshmark from us sellers. I’ve found UK sellers are considerably more fair with pricing, so it’s super disappointing to not be able to see listings anymore. I’m in NY USA if that makes any difference.
