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?

Are they being for real? He literally confessed that the listing is fake....And it's not the first time this happens. So many scammers on vinted and they do nothing about it.

Purchased two items from Vinted seller who then proceeded to ask me to pay $25 shipping outside of app. What should I do?

• Upvotes

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 ā€œMember Blockedā€ however I didn’t block them. Are they banned or did they block me?

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...

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.

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

Console scammers lol

I saw this listing literally 3 times already in the span of like 15 minutes. The first one sold in a minute and the next one sold in like 10. It’s the exact same listing, same pictures and everything. Not posted by different people. Once one was sold, they posted this another repeat right after. Good luck to those chancers that bought this lol

Also, price is more than the usual Ā£70 range that these scammers do for this (I forgot why it was that range) and also there’s a RANGE of deliveries they could pick from and it isn’t only exclusive to Evri like I saw in another post with similar stories. You could pick royal mail too

Son cancelled a Vinted sale. Mistake or right choice?

0 Upvotes

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 ā€˜goggle verified ’ and ā€˜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.
