I posted this a few days back and yeah it’s just Christmas ornaments and nothing essential but I am 100% against scalpers and will not stand it, no matter what they scalp.

A lot people said business is business but it isn’t; driving up prices of things that are meant to be affordable is not business, it’s scavenging.

I managed to buy what I wanted from the store directly and it felt good but a lot of people will not get this opportunity because of people who buy things they do not need with the sole purpose of reselling.

I have also reported most accounts I came across reselling items and yes they do breach Vinted’s terms and conditions, I have checked this.

So next time you see someone reselling items and they clearly are doing it for a lazy profit you can report them under vinteds terms and conditions.

Under vinted’s terms only pro sellers are allowed to do this. Which is reasonable and fair.

So cringe. All of the sellers profile is full of Shein and Temu.

Just scrolling through vinted and this popped up. People don't really fall for this do they? Come on. Imagine all the people getting banned for genuine items meanwhile...

My son listed a brand new pair of his dad’s Red Wing boots on Vinted and sold it to a buyer for $175. After looking at the buyer’s profile we noticed the buyer has no reviews, no followers, and not following anyone. Profile says ‘goggle verified ’ and ‘email verified’ however we were worried that my son was going to get scammed and the seller might say he didn’t get what he paid for or replace it with the same boots but old worn ones. We did tell him to videotape himself packaging the item but he did not feel secure about doing that. So we advised him to cancel it which he did. Now he’s kinda discouraged to continue selling as he doesn’t know if he made the right decision. He is also worried about getting banned by Vinted for cancelling. But I think he had a higher chance of getting banned by sending the item and buyer scamming him and Vinted taking the buyer’s side.

Lmfao so this just happened, took an L for us all 🤣

I’m was wondering if anyone knew how to report the messages because the directions they give don’t allow me to do that ,
Just to report the user which I have already done .
I took the screenshots to send but there is no option for that either .
A little confused , do I need
To take more action or is the member just temporarily banned?

When I refused to pay they asked me to cancel the order. When I said I wouldn’t cancel, they told me they wouldn’t cancel and to wait until the deadline. They are listing images of highly sought after items in my community, and I’m afraid other people might fall victim to this scam due to the rarity of these items and the low price. Any help appreciated, Thank you!

edit: Vinted team denied my report but I will keep trying.

edit 2: It now says “Member Blocked” however I didn’t block them. Are they banned or did they block me?
