GBOK for buying OK for buying, but what price you see you need to at least double for fees and shipping, I have purchased some great items and if they fit that's great but if they don't you'll never make your money back or even cover your costs, I have sold a few items and all have been OK

GB*BUYERS BEWARE* Unfortunately, all the reviews stating that the platform is great for sellers, but does not look after buyers has been my experience (and that of others I know). I had the wrong item sent to me, seller was apologetic and agreed to send the correct item once they’d received my return. Instead, they refunded and (with no explanation) blocked me. All of our communications had been pleasant and there was no reason for this, except I suppose to avoid the risk of my leaving a less than 5* review. My sister had a similar experience, buying a “100% cashmere” jumper that turned out to be a cashmere/wool blend and full of holes. She returned the jumper at her expense and, having had a full refund, was then not permitted to leave feedback. So, Vinted’s 5* sellers are often not 5* at all. And Vinted don’t seem to look after the interests of buyers at all. BEWARE! I won’t be shopping on Vinted anymore, unless they start offering buyers more protection and making dodgy sellers accountable. I am heading back to eBay.

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.

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

GBI like Vinted but I've had some… I like Vinted but I've had some unpleasant experiences where support wouldn't help. Eg. receiving an item which was not as described (even when asked on private message), support teams says me as a buyer need to pay for postage and then I had to wait a week for the seller to confirm they got their parcel so I can have my refund. Eg 2 buyer did not pick up their parcel which was then sent back to me and I had to wait a total of 4 weeks not knowing where my parcel was and what was going on. Eventually had it delivered broken and there was nothing I could do eg 3 Listings being deleted with no reasoning ???
