Re: Vinted
I've not sold anything on Vinted but have bought loads and always choose UPS if it's available as my local pick up point is near and the person who owns the newsagents is always so nice. Other places act like it's a massive chore for them.

Good luck Marth!
I’ve just dropped my dress package off and I’m so sorry to see it go, it’s such a beautiful dress and I’m gutted that I’m too fat for it
. I just hope it gets there now with InPost.

Re: Vinted
No one is ever home any more to take my deliveries so I go with whoever can deliver to my nice newsagent.

Well done Marth!
I listed some more things and have sold two today
. I reckon listing on/near payday is a good idea.

Re: Vinted
I’ve sold another thing. Now convinced my low pricing strategy is too low and I should have aimed a bit higher!

Re: Vinted

Re: Vinted
Sellers - do you give clothing measurements? It’s my biggest bugbear - if I’m looking at an item from a brand I don’t know I’m always put off if the seller won’t give measurements if asked… I asked one about a coat length and she came back with ‘average’. I must list some of my overflow when I get home and am wondering what gives good results!

I always aim a bit higher, I think, then I don't feel put out to reduce :lol:

I've put measurements in my listings and would respond to a request with a photo of the item with the tape measure so their own eyes can read it.

Re: Vinted
Thanks Disco.
A lot of the sellers do discount quite regularly and I get a notification if it’s something I’ve favourited.
So I’d say prices higher - and there’s always the option to negotiate too if asked.

Re: Vinted
Yes I give the length measurement and one person asked for more info which I also gave. Then it was bought by someone else a few minutes later anyway.
I’ve got £112 pending! Yaaay.

Re: Vinted
I give measurements as well as sizes on labels means more or less nothing I find.
I've just sold something else (just after I got back from posting 4 items)

Re: Vinted
I've just listed my first thing. I hope this proves to be a nice easy way to get rid of stuff before we move :))

Re: Vinted
Oh for the love of God. I had something on for £15. Someone asked if I would accept £9 and instead of declining, I pressed accept!

Re: Vinted
I think you can just cancel and relist as the seller? Someone did that to me once with a Peppa coat.

Re: Vinted
Argh she paid immediately. I think I will just have to go with it, and see it as my good deed for the day. Its also been sitting in a cupboard for years so at least I have some money for it.
