GBA functional App to use for buying and selling A functional App to use for buying and selling. Its both automatic and customer service systems work out well. I had three items that were sold were lost via post. My buyers got their money back, and I got paid too, thanks to their protection plans. I received one damaged item, reported the issues immediately with photo evidence, the seller accepted the refund and paid the postage within Vinted App, so I sent it back to them just as they bought it from me, with my payment refunded in time after they had received the item. I wrote to customer service a couple of times as the app did not load. They answered pretty quickly and committed that they were trying to improve the app. Other issues, such as when similar but not the same products uploaded were deleted, were dealt with almost immediately when appealed. Overall, if one follows the procedures on Vinted, it provides fast, responsive, and enjoyable purchasing and selling experiences.

GBGood for selling Good for selling, not so good for buying. Photos aren't the same as seeing an item in the flesh and having ordered a couple of things that, whilst, were good labels, the items were very worn, despite the seller saying they were in very good condition. Think there's some okay stuff on Vinted but an awful lot of rubbish. I wouldn't buy again unless something was new with tags. The only other weird thing is the sizing chart. No way is a 12 large....

PThow to get my money back? there was some problem with the buyer, she told me she had sent my order almost a week ago though the information on the app told me she had yet to send it to me. she told me there was a problem with the tracking system and both of us reported the situation to vinted, who proceeded to suspend the order. they’re saying they’re trying to speak with the delivery company, and to wait for more news meanwhile they haven’t returned my money yet, i don’t know how they’re going to resolve this issue and what is true or not.

GBGood for sellers, bad for buyers, costed me money 3 times As a seller it's easy to use as it's easy to upload products although there is a large number of products you cannot sell for no good reason (eg yoga mats). For some reason items don't sell as much as on competitor platforms. As a buyer, however, it's a complete joke. You pay a huge buyer protection fee which doesn't protect the buyer as if the item is not as described the buyer has to pay to return it. You are completely dependent on the good will of the seller which can be none existent, and I have already lost money with them 3 times. The costumer support is non existent and they just send you automated messages that do not fix any problems. I would warn anyone against buying anything through vinted as it's very possible to loose money. I am thinking of keeping the account just to sell things and am not sure I will risk buying anything through them again, as I am effectively paying to protect scammers

GBNot great for buyers I have previously had a really good experience with Vinted but recently, it's become more and more expensive to buy items. The 'buyer protection fee' is an absolute joke - you have very little protection as a buyer on the app. The final nail in the coffin was when I bought an item that was never sent. Using the help guide online I cancelled the order, in order to generate a refund. I have received negative feedback for cancelling (despite the help guide twlling me to do as such) but the seller has recieved no repercussions for not sending the item. I used to use the app all the time but this experience has definitely made me change my mind
