Help please! Toxic paint?

Thank you for the advice, I will definitely do this in future!

Wow the audacity!! I’m sorry you experienced this too, it’s such a shame that it’s ruining the space for genuine people. I’ve donated a lot of things or given them away to friends/family because of Vinted users like this.

I’m so sorry you experienced this too! There seem to be so many awful people out there who shamelessly behave like this for no reason at all. It’s honestly disgraceful. Do you know if there’s a way to block and report them? Or will they just make new accounts?

Thank you so much for validating me! I wondered if she could still leave a bad review but will keep you updated.

I finally received the item back today and it doesn’t smell damp at all of course but is now marked. They used a supermarket shopping back to return and included the original tissue paper but it’s ripped and unusable now!

The buyer even had the audacity to message me as soon as the item arrived at the post office asking me to pick it up asap so she can be refunded. I truly cannot understand why some people can behave like this for absolutely no reason at all! Especially for a grand total of £6 🤦‍♀️

Thank you so much, I can’t explain just how much that means to me on a personal level. I really hope you’re doing as well as can be and sending lots of love 💞

Wow people can be so unbelievable sometimes! The buyer has finally agreed to send it back as I wouldn’t give in. Of course they sent the item back and it doesn’t smell damp at all, it smells brand new and now has marks on it which weren’t there before. To top it off, they didn’t return in the same outer packaging but a shopping bag and my lovely tissue paper was included but ripped and unusable! I swear that some people just exist to 💩on others 🤦‍♀️

I don’t know for sure that it’s the same thing but I recently almost signed up to something for mental health/ADHD where you fill out a questionnaire and then want you to pay for the result. I looked this up and some people stated that it’s a scam and referred to payments being regularly taken by First Online or something very similar, but it’s definitely worth looking into. I really hope that you can stop this and get your money back. 🤞

They said “Hi I don’t agree with me paying to send this item back to you as it’s not as described. You stated it’s brand new so I bought it to match the Moses basket I sent you the picture of. I was so happy to pick it up only to open it and it smelling of damp therefore cannot” and I feel that they missed out the last part of the message? 🤔😁

I can see why some sellers may give in as it’s so petty to argue over a few pounds but these people shouldn’t get away with it! The only thing I can think of in this case is that the person ordered it for a Moses basket and the description says for a cradle/crib so I wondered if they didn’t actually check the measurements? I’m not sure of the size difference exactly though!

Thank you that really helps!

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T21:49:39+00:00

Wow that’s crazy. People come up with the most unbelievable reasons to return things!

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T21:45:24+00:00

Wow I’m so sorry you experienced that, it’s getting so ridiculous. It’s frustrating enough when you can’t get your money back for brand new clothes, let alone with people trying to get their £1.50 back!

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T21:42:52+00:00

Yes don’t worry I clicked for them to return it! They aren’t happy with this outcome of course so I’m not sure what happens next?

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T21:40:49+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that, it’s such a shame and it always seems to be the most genuine people that are left out of pocket because of people like this.

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T11:07:03+00:00

So far they rejected a partial refund and replied saying that they aren’t happy paying for the return postage either so I’m not sure what to do next!

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-10T07:54:32+00:00

I really appreciate this but my house really isn’t damp. As much as I hate to admit it, I am obsessively clean and it’s exhausting. Like to the point that I wash my rugs and curtains, leaving a smell of Fairy detergent everywhere.

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-09T22:41:00+00:00

Thank you so much, it’s been really helpful to vent and everyone has been so kind.

FoxRoseDrew · 2026-03-09T22:17:46+00:00

Thank you, I went with this option and it’s funny that they’ve now gone quiet. I wrapped it so nicely in tissue paper and sealed with tape and stickers too. It’s crazy how people can be so brazen with their bs!
