‼️🩷ACCOUNT IS NOW BANNED THANK YOU ALL FOR REPORTING. REPORT ANY ACCOUNTS YOU SEE LIKE THIS!🩷‼️

The cover photo (the first pic) was an image of an ai regular cat. People are seriously trying to sell what i think its DRUGS ON VINTED💀 ive reported because even to joke about this is wild but i think this is real..? or am i being dumb?

It’s $10! I’ll even do $8! just buy it already 😂 all I’ve had are 2 lowballs for $6.

They would have been £14 all together, they offered £10. I counter offered £12 then they offered £11 so I accepted. Maybe I shouldn’t have done because I then received these messages. They didn't want to take it up with Vinted, admitted it was their fault... then left me 3 stars because they weren't happy with the size. I’m not sure what more they wanted me to do.

If you’re letting them tick that they did it, it should warn buyers that they ticked that. This option does nothing otherwise but pretty much allow AI use and promote it. Pretty grossss

De ce ar vinde cineva asa ceva? Înțeleg ca poate e glumă…dar totuși…🙄😅 wtf

It definitely caught my attention.

I recently bought an iPod on Vinted. The seller mentioned it was in good condition but hadn’t been used in a long time, so they weren't sure if it still worked. I can't really blame them though, because I'm a total layman when it comes to this stuff myself.

So, I received it yesterday and plugged it in to charge. It booted up and everything seemed to work fine. But then, I noticed a small black spot forming in the middle of the screen. The device didn’t get hot, but it started swelling up, and suddenly I heard a loud "pop". The screen and even the aluminum frame cracked open at the top.

After doing some research, I found out that when these Nanos are left unused for a long time, the batteries can catch fire or even explode. Things could have seriously gone south yesterday!

Can't Vinted just ban the sale of these specific devices?

So I ordered an Xbox Series S from an account with 5 stars. I thought it was just a bit stained, the description said “used”, and the price was good so I bought it.

Once the package arrived I’m hit with a strong smell of cigarettes and small bug? Roach? carcasses (please let these not be roaches)

I immediately bagged it up and disposed of it just to prevent an infestation at home.

What do I do in this situation? What are my options?

Thank you 🙏🏻

this interaction was strange 😅

The message on the 9th was also sent in the morning when I was on my way to the post office

Does he thinks that posting ai slop would make people want to buy??

It’s so frustrating. He messaged me after receiving the item and said it’s great. What the heck? What am I meant to do? Is it petty to give him 3 stars back??

They literally said a thank you message for purchasing it before 😭 i shouldn't be so pressed, but this item would have been a perfect gift which would have arrived pretty much on time 😔🤧

Edit: this shit is like an unlock requirement 😭 "I won't sell to customers without any reviews" holy target market but understandable 😔 I said I'm willing to still buy it if they are willing to trust me. Their product and choice. 🗣

Thank you for buying from me but please dont ask to ship a package 1 milesecond after you buy it from me because you REALLY need it, even the same evening - I have a life, I need to package it also, Its not my problem if you are too lazy not to buy it at the last minute. Sure dude I will drop everything I planned to do to ship your 1€ book like Im sort of an online retailer

If you see an item that is currently retailing for $850..and it’s in good condition & marked $150… it’s a bit weird to offer $46.. especially after you’ve told me you know what it is currently selling for.

I don’t know if I should price ridiculously high and expect extreme haggling.. or stand firm on what I know is a great price?!?

More and more I’m listing on other sites that don’t seem like a scammy yard sale.

The parcel was damaged during transportation, and Vinted informed me that the buyer reported it had arrived empty.

What makes this particularly frustrating is that Vinted has blamed my packaging and refused to compensate me.

Here is how I packaged the item:
● The graded slab was placed inside a black padded envelope.
● I added approximately 50 g or more of black shredded paper to cushion the contents and help prevent movement.
● I used a rigid cardboard box, securely sealed with tape.
● I placed the entire box inside an additional plastic shipping bag for extra protection.

Despite these precautions, my parcel sustained significant damage. Looking at the photographs, I struggle to understand how the slab itself could have caused such a large, irregular opening in the packaging. I am concerned that the parcel may have been forcibly opened during transportation.

Vinted has repeatedly told me that its decision is final and that my packaging was insufficient. However, I do not believe the available evidence has adequately established what happened to my parcel or why I should be held responsible for the loss.

€265 is a lot of money to me. I depend on the money I receive from my sales, and losing this amount while also being denied compensation is extremely frustrating.

Sold a kids Halloween costume, bought on vinted but my son never wore it so put it back on vinted 2 years later..... I noticed a small hole on the knee so pictured it and sold for more then half for what I bought it for just so some other kid can enjoy it. First time I have ever had a not OK!! There is a snip in the back of the costume (I never done a picture of the back of it as there was no relevance at the time for the costume.) The receiver has obviously CUT open the package and caught it and now they want to get it for free??? It's £2! I have straight away requested a return for the refund, right thing to do?

Why list an item as 20 dollars if youre NOT selling it for that much? Its such a small yet annoying issue for both the seller and people who want to buy.

This is why I love vinted. Saw this jacket while out shopping last weekend and nearly dropped £129 on it. Went home and thought il have a look on vinted. Same jacket £15.

It was only for some loose figures, but it was sellotaped round an Iceland carrier bag, i couldn't even leave feedback as the member was blocked after receiving my items,

I don't usually post things like this. I've never written a public complaint about a company before. But I'm really disappointed in how Vinted has handled this, and I'd feel bad if someone else went through the same thing without a warning.

At the end of September I signed up for Vinted to pick up a few used LEGO sets. I only bought, never sold, and paid for everything through Vinted's checkout, the way you're supposed to.

Two of my orders, a Ninjago City Gardens and an Ideas Sesame Street set from two different sellers, never shipped. A label was created for each one, and the tracking never moved. I was told to wait 21 days before I could ask for a refund, so I waited.

Then Vinted permanently banned my account for "fraudulent activity."

I honestly still don't understand it. I was the one who didn't receive anything. I was the one waiting for my money.

I wrote a polite, detailed appeal. The answer was a template saying I violated the Terms and Conditions, with a link to the entire terms document and nothing specific. I asked again: what rule did I break, and how do I get refunded for the two orders that never came? I got almost the exact same template back, with no mention of my refund. My last message got an automated reply.

I'm not writing this to rant. I get that a marketplace has to fight fraud, and maybe something got flagged by mistake. What disappoints me is that nobody will look at it and give me a real answer, not even about my own money.

If you buy on Vinted:
- Screenshot your orders, tracking, and messages as you go. If your account is locked, you lose access to all of it.
- Be wary if a label is created but tracking never moves.
- Know that support may not engage with you if something goes wrong.

Has anyone else had this happen? I'd really like to know if I'm the only one.

@Vinted, I'd still welcome a real conversation about this.

How do you post your old books when they dont have an ISBN? It wont even let me bypass it and I have to put them in weird categories like "coffee table decor" or "kids room"

I just started selling on Vinted a week ago and have shipped out 30+ packages since I started, but now, no one is even favoriting anything I have listed (& I’m listing new things daily, even if it’s just 2-3 things).

Am I doing something wrong or do I just need to try putting my username on socials orrrr? How do I keep getting into buyers’ algorithms? Any advice appreciated! :)

I really liked Vinted as a buyer and seller (260+ transactions) but I’d say about 30% of my purchased items have undisclosed damage that warrant a return (examples include a leather purse that was severely water damaged, a cashmere scarf with a cigarette hole, a dress with a hole hidden under the collar, multiple skirts with side seams blown out or near blowout, blood stains on the hip, etc., etc.)

It was relatively painless and free to return items, but today I got a skirt where the seam was blown out, requested a return and I’m noticing that I have to pay $1.50 to return it. That’s new and Not cool.

Between that and the increases (albeit small) in fees and shipping to buyers, No wonder my sales have slowed down.

Then I am seeing sellers listing worn items as new without tags, and listing modern Pyrex as vintage. When reporting this to Vinted, Vinted doesn’t do anything. Then when you tell sellers they are not representing items accurately, they report you.

Honestly, I was buying a lot, but now I think I’ll just sell. Thank you for ending my Vinted addiction. It was too good to be true.

I don’t know why people think shipping a hat like this is a good idea, because it almost always leads to damage. Either the front gets crushed or the brim gets bent out of shape. Sometimes it’s possible to fix with enough time, effort, and steam, especially with modern hats that have plastic brims. But today I received a vintage hat with a cardboard brim, and it’s completely broken.

This is the third hat I’ve purchased that has been ruined because it was shipped improperly. Simply shipping it in a box would have prevented this damage. It’s frustrating and completely avoidable.

I sold a bundle some time back and I still haven’t been paid. How do I reach out to someone about it? It’s only $8, but it’s MY $8, 😂.
