Selling on Depop and Vinted #24 The 40% Off Club

This is how eBay started off, where people would sell a coin that could’ve been touched by John Lennon, or selling their granny.
Ebay wouldn’t tolerate this now, it has been cleaned it up. I think Vinted need to be proactive and do the same because it just makes a mockery of the site otherwise. This is probably why some of us don’t get any visibility, because of joke listings like this clogging up the platform.
Yes I do remember that. I reported it anyway for saying it was made of Gold lol my listings get reported, when there's nothing wrong so I will do the same

Some of the prices for vintage clothing are beyond the ridiculous. Seriously. On Vinted people are not paying this kind of money add to the fact you can buy them much cheaper,yes some are rare,there's a lot that aren't and don't warrant the price tag. There's a seller selling at absolutely ridiculous prices for things,these are a few examples

I know this isn't a thread about Whatnot but honestly the people in the chats on there must surely be Vinted buyers lol. The amount of people saying "I can't bid I have no money" " wish I had done money " "I only have £4" why are you in a live shopping channel please ? They just want some sucker to gift them or something

Item up for £25 (brand new boxed, retailed at £50, now out of stock) and I had an offer for £15 so I declined. Then got “what’s the lowest you’ll take then?” err how about £25 as it’s already a good deal?!
It was an unwanted present so part of me feels I should just take anything for it but equally it’s a decent item for a good bargain already!
ask her what’s the highest she will pay?! 😆 rudeness never gets you a bargain!

I put my Vinted into holiday mode last week as I was away for 4 days, something sold so either I didn’t save the holiday mode button or it failed, I messaged the buyer to say today’s Monday I can’t post until Friday etc etc so she asks to cancel! Buyers must honestly think it’s Amazon, I didn’t reply until I was back on Thursday and she accepted Friday was ok. All that for £1!

My views etc have dropped off a cliff again after a small flurry of activity but noticed everything I favourite is selling very quick.

I have made a mistake before where I thought it might have been a glitch, but it was my error. I failed to notice that when I put it onto holiday mode I should’ve scrolled down and then clicked on ‘save’.
 
Just listed something and it says “hidden” and when I click on it, it says check in process ?!
Yeah it happens from time to time, think it's just random, it'll get unhidden eventually and you'll get a notification (presuming you've not just listed an ounce of coke or a machete 🙃). I've had it be in a check for like half an hour and longest was like twelve hours, it's annoying

12 hours. 🙈 thank you.
it’s been an hour so far.
 
Well they've restricted my account for commercial selling ! I literally only went back on to that account this week,and have to go pro. So think it's maybe the end of my Vinted moaning you'll be pleased to know 😢

on what basis is it pro selling ? I looked at an account yesterday with over 300 brand new rugs for sale and that wasn't pro/commercial. Can you appeal it ?

I know. No I cannot. They've deleted/hidden some listings as there was 2 things the same but different colours lol. I must action it myself by deleting the listings manually and then if I continue to post and they deem it at any time to be commercial selling I will get a permanent ban no discussion. Thing is I haven't used the account since September lol,how can it be commercial selling ? I see it all the time on Vinted,fake accounts, counterfeit goods etc and I only have about 40 items posted. I see accounts with over 500 items ? I don't get it tbh,as I was using my mum's account since October and posting most days,nothing was said. I think I must have been reported. I am looking into the Pro thing,it's just a bit daunting tbh.

"please let me know when you've posted"

.... Fighting the urge to just reply "yep, the app will do 👍" 🤣

(I ain't replying, they'll get the notification when I post it tomorrow. You bought something with DPD on a Saturday evening, they only pick up from Post Offices near me, what can ya do 🤷)

It seems so unfair as there are so many blatant trade sellers and importers of tat (never used to be but it is getting worse by the week). I am sorry this is happening to you and hope you can avoid them doing anything. You would be the worlds worst commercial seller if you left it since september to add stock :)
