Yeah, notice how there is no 40% off button. Just a 5% and 10% off. So these guys are actually calculating 40% off, which makes them even WORSE. guys!!!
Na, bet it's because when you go to make an offer and start typing it shows at the bottom what the lowest you can send is

Exactly I was shocked myself. Now see,she's accepted your 40 percent off,so those people are the ones to blame

Someone sent me an offer on an item which I have had quite a few offers on already. Over the last few days when i received an offer, I replied back saying “sorry I’m not accepting offers hope you understand.” Sent that just now and the cheeky so and so said “at least allow some bargain”. 😳😳😳

I honestly don't understand what they think the price set is for,they're so cheeky. It's yours,you can charge what you want,not what they want to pay,it's not a auction 🙄

I listed something on Friday afternoon and had a 40% off offer within 2 mins of it being uploaded. Ignored it and 5 mins later someone came and bought it full price. Linen-cotton mix dress worn once being sold for £10 which is a perfectly reasonable price!

If you can’t afford £10 then search for £6 and below.

Exactly. There's a filter button for this very reason. It's like going into Gucci or Chanel knowing you're not a millionaire just stick to Primark. Thing is there's obviously people accepting these offers or they'd not keep sending them

My first return coming back from the USA so should be interesting. A vintage dress she claims has snags in the chiffon (I have checked and they were not there on the photos before I sent it). It auto defaults to buyer pays return so no option for me to pay for it (I wouldn't anyway) but I think it is is going to be expensive for them to return.

I honestly do not understand tbh why people don't just resell in these circumstances,it will surely cost more to return it. I have had stuff that I could and should probably have returned but it's just easier to resell it or bin it etc.

I genuinely don't get the people who pay to return, let alone across the Atlantic! Like ... you know you can sell it for X amount (because you bought it for that!), why would you do yourself out of £3 (or more)

I understand if it's expensive and you'd have no chance of reselling but other than who could be bothered .I have had people trying to return items under a fiver 🙄

The problem is I think she has damaged it trying it on as she claims the fabric is damaged around the zip and under the arms (I have pics of these areas looking fine on the listing). So I guess now it isn't saleable. I thought it was interesting that the buyer always pays the return postage from the USA yet not in the UK (where sellers get the option)

I honestly think some people treat Vinted like some kind of sport.

Spotted a really nice worn once dress at an absolute bargain price relative to new. Uploaded 29 minutes ago. 30 likes. 8 people had sent offers!

I bought it as it was a good shape etc and a good price. Do people just send offers for fun? Why on earth would someone accept an offer a few minutes after listing?!
