The concept is brilliant for both… The concept is brilliant for both sellers and buyers. If you are lucky enough to not be “targeted” by AI, all good. The second you have an issue though, customer service is not that great. You mainly “converse” with bots and only after several emails and messages, an actual employee gets dragged into conversation. If your account gets suspended or permanently deleted there is no way back. You could spend the next 30 years sending them emails to prove they were wrong, cuz there is no coming back on the bots’ decision to close the account. That being said, Henry from customer service was very polite, even though he could not reverse the almighty 🤖 decision to close my account. Also, if you do have your account closed, they at least allow you to recover all the money you had in your Vinted account, hence why they get 3stars

Good 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

well well, good that they are doing the business for sustainability and stuff but whenever I pass by their headquarters in Vilnius, so many employees drive in and out with a diesel car or a crazy Ferarri.. whatever car that looks kinda bad for their environment. which I think it's a bit funny. Also whats with the buyer protection fee? Whats the rule?? 1 euro protection fee for a 3 euro shirt with 3.14 shipping fee???? So high compared to what I buy and shouldn't I at least be able to select if I want to be protected or not?

Good 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....

Getting Worse Getting Worse. Items that have been worn and even described as worn still being sold as new or new without tags. Raised concern with customer support who back the buyer! Takes forever for a refund. Takes forever for a lost item to be refunded, in excess of 30 days. Lack of customer support, always the same response.
