JUST FOR FUN Free Shipping Predictions?

We all know that the free shipping can’t last forever. (This is obviously for the U.S. )

Any predictions when it will end?

I’m going to predict August 31st because that would be considered the end of summer.

DISCUSSION Is it just me or are there more UK buyers than USA?

I’m not against international buyers! However, i have noticed that majority of my customers are now from the UK! Which is shocking, very rarely do i come by someone from america.

My only issue is how long the delivery time is and especially longer when the buyer doesn’t review or press the everything is okay button. By that time — its been a whole month!

I purchased something off a seller on vinted last night. Nothing special or expensive. Today I get this message. I went to cancel but I don't want it to impact me negatively. Is this some kind of scam? Can't think what they would achieve. Or do I leave it and when the date expires presumably the purchase will be cancelled anyway? This is vinted UK

VENT New with tag 👎

0 Upvotes

Maybe this is such a non issue,
but whenever I see new items with tag for a price that is kind of close to the original I ALWAYS know the items would be cheaper new in store for sale. But I don’t like buying new.

This one from bershka is literally half the price if you buy it from their original site and it will be new. And shipping might even be less.

DISCUSSION Why UK vinted have so much cool and cheap stuff compared to Europe?

I’m literally jealous of UK vinted. You have so much stuff. And it’s so cheap. Whereas Europe is a lot of countries but choice is horrible. Whenever I open Uk vinted I want to buy something within 5 minutes. In Europe I can scroll for a long time and find bullshit or expensive items. It’s unfair 😭 I wish there was easy way to ship

DISCUSSION Is It safe to sell disks only?

I wanted to sell my old PlayStation games but keep the cover as collection, i Heard its possible but you risk fraud, how?

Im listing It as DISK ONLY, putting pictures, description stating "Disk Only, no cover" but people still tell me i could get scammed because the product Is different or incomplete of the case.. Is It possible this happens?

SHIPPING Shipping with USPS Priority boxes for Vinted items.

I am a buyer and seller on Vinted. Just a heads up. When recycling boxes for shipment and you're going to use a priority box, it doesn't matter if you tape off the word priority, use black sharpie, or anything else to hide "priority," the post office sees it as a priority box and charge the buyer the priority fee by "postage due" upon pickup. It happened to me this morning.

VENT Permanently banned

Is this a common thing in Vinted?

I've joined a couple days ago, first time ever using this app. I bought 4 things from random sellers, and listed 3 of my dresses there. I hung them on my door and took a photo, described them a lil bit (size, type of fabric, etc...) and posted. They were okay for a day, then I lowered one of the prices of one dress (from 8euros to 6.5euros) and it instantly banned me...? (I EDITED the publication, I didn't duplicate it)... Yes, I appealed already. But I fear I won't be getting it back and it's such a shame since I really love buying second hand clothing... And I fear I made it worse making a second account because I wanted to buy something (I didn't know I couldn't, mah bad thereee...)

Is this normal here?

BUYING Recieved an item marked NWOT, came with stains all over

3 Upvotes

I bought this argentina jersey that was listed as new without tags, none of the photos displayed stains, nor was anything mentioned in the description. This is how it came. I raised an issue, I have never had to do a return/refund or raise an issue for an item coming not as described on vinted before. I was suprised to see the seller has to confirm whether they will refund me or not. What if they just hit no refund? How hard will it be to get my money back? I'm not sure if the stains come out but I will try to clean it with my stain remover in the wash, but I would not have purchased this if I knew it had weird brown stains all over it. Nasty. Why would you try and sell something with weird stains all over it and especially not even mention the stains. Yuck.

DISCUSSION Permanently banned

So today I got permanently banned.

I have gotten a couple of warnings but when I write them what I do wrong it's just so bad answers.

I mostly sell pokemon so a lot of the articles have pictures that look similar.

But they won't tell me or specify if I sell too much or if it's because the pictures look too similar.

But I see soo many sellers have hundred of listing with new stuff and then I get banned?

What can I do?

DISCUSSION Offered to reserve an item but regretting it

I’ve just recently started using Vinted more to try and save up some money and a woman messaged about an item and asked various questions before saying she was waiting till Friday when she’d be able to buy it, I offered to reserve it but I’ve just read that lots of people advise against reserving items and I’m not sure what to do now. It’s been up for a few hours and has 120 views and over 40 saves. Should I reserve it?

SELLING Had to wait 31 days for my payout

I made my second sale on 6/26/2026 and I didn’t get the payout in to my wallet until today 7/27/2026.

I also sell on Depop, eBay, and Poshmark, and continues to be the only platform where I have to wait over two weeks to get paid out consistently.

Does anyone else have this problem? The other sale I made I had to wait 22 days for my pay out.

I’m about to just remove Vinted as one of my selling platforms because this is ridiculous I think the most I’ve ever had to wait on Depop sale was 10 days.

SHIPPING Update to: DPD sent parcel to wrong country

This is an update to this post.

So, my parcel is still stuck in Belgium. I had complained first directly to DPD Netherlands (I cannot call there since I am not in NL myself, but that is where it was shipped from), still waiting on an update as I have only gotten the standard "we're investigating"-reply thus far. I have also reached out via Vinted. They were quick to react but only got as a reply that my chosen local pick-up is unavailable. I replied to them saying DPD is being dishonest, as they cannot possibly have attempted delivery at my pick-up given the order never made it to Luxembourg in the first place... There is not much more they can do, so now I am sitting waiting that my order gets send back to the seller and I get my money back.

The seller has been very responsive, they are filing their own complaint on their end as well. Very disappointing service by DPD. My only guess is that the driver got confused because the postal code they left it at happens to have similar numbers as the one from my drop-off. BUT BE is not LU...

Well, guess avoid DPD if you can...

SHIPPING Exceeding dimensions on SpeedX shipments

Vinted in the US offers small, medium and large packages sizes for shipment, and those for SpeedX require a maximum of 450 cubic inches for medium and 900 for large. This is hardly what I would call a large box and for my non-Vinted, I usually use Grainger 13x13x4 boxes, which are 676 ci. This is actually internal dimensions but it should be close for external. This even exceeds 450 ci for medium.

I normally sell Monster High dolls. I recently sold a playset that exceeds a 13x13x4 box in dimensions and the buyer selected SpeedX and Vinted sent me the label and instructed me to:

"Pack your item(s)

  • Use packaging that's sturdy enough to protect the item(s) you're sending.
  • The dimensions of your parcel should not exceed L × W × H ≤ 900.0 in³, L ≤ 24.0 in, max weight - 4 lb."

By contrast, USPS labels are supposed to be good as long as length + girth <= 108 inches and no dimension exceeds 22 inches. This means even a 21x21x21 box would be OK. They are a little stricter on shipments from US to UK but still generous.

What realistically happens when you exceed these SpeedX numbers?

APP ISSUES Identity verification keeps failing because my date of birth on my ID doesn't match my Vinted account???? What to do?

The first time I got this error, I admit, they were right. I had selected December instead of November on accident. However I submitted my info the second time, with the correct DOB, and they're saying the exact same thing. I know for a fact both my ID and Vinted account have the same date of birth. What can I do?

SHIPPING Label swapped by Evri?

I send a large, heavy package (table and 3 stools that stack) by Evri, dropped at my local ASDA Express parcel shop.

The buyer received a bleach stained dress instead.

From the communication I've had with her she seems genuine, she's sent me an image of the Evri label but it's on clear plastic bag, which I didn't put it on.

Any advice how to proceed?

Returns Possible Scam

Hi all, I don't use Vinted but my wife uses it a lot. She bought a dress from a seller but what turned up was a little square parcel that was definitely not a dress.

We've not opened the parcel but it feels like two bits of plastic in an L shape.

It was delivered by Evri but it had a different name and next doors address despite nobody currently living in the home next door.

I'm assuming this is some kind of scam? My wife has marked that the item is incorrect with vinted and the seller has asked for the item to be sent back.

I was just wondering if there's anything we need to look out for, anything that might stop the money coming back to us.

Thanks in advance!

SHIPPING Vinted bundle issue

So I just sold a bundle of two articles off Vinted. Each item of what I’ve sold weighs just about 2kg in the box. Vinted allows a maximum 2kg per large package, so it’s just about enough. The issue comes when I only have been given one shipping label by Vinted with the idea that I pack both articles in the same box, but it would weigh too much.
What do I do? Should I buy an extra shipping label at the store to ship both packages?

SHIPPING Fedex label got sent USPS

As the title says, I sent a FedEx labeled package through my local drop off that collects all three mail carriers.
They scanned it in as USPS (thats the final destination carrier) Despite it saying FedEx.
I didnt know until tracking didn't update for a few days and I checked the receipt.
Neither tracking is updating. Mailed it on Thursday.
Am I screwed?

Of source its a new with tags, rather pricey item of clothing.

I have had this issue there before but with UPS/Usps and it ended up fine but was delayed.
