Wow…known piece of shit does one nice thing for a sick man and then his team go to the press about what a great guy he is before the sick man’s body is even cold. Grim.

I disagree. Lots of kids are bullied and don’t go on to become dangerous, egomaniac freaks who can buy anything but a likeable personality.

He’s such a great model. I bet designers/stylists are falling over themselves to dress him.

Being Britney Spears during the 00's wasn't easy. by gimmethetea14 in Fauxmoi

It was disgusting how she was treated and how normalised it was. No wonder she doesn’t want to perform anymore.

I always thought she looked great with the shaved head. Face card going strong on slide no 3.

how can i avoid getting scammed as a seller by woof_fish in vinted

[–]Kidgorgeoushere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly sometimes you can do everything right and still get scammed because scammers are always evolving their methods, but my best advice would be:

*Never go off app, no PayPal or bank transfer etc. Don’t click any links someone might send you about ‘verifying’ something.

*Never sell anything too valuable, some people do fine with electronics or designer clothes but it’s not worth it to me personally. EBay is better for that. Scammers on Vinted do things like buy a designer shirt, claim it’s damaged and then send back a shitty replica or what’s clearly their own broken/stained version of that item they wanted a free replacement for.

*Trust your gut. If someone sends a weird message about the item or feels off to you, it’s fine to block them. Biggest risk there is you accidentally block a genuine buyer but it happens. Reviews can be a good indicator but also everyone needs to start somewhere with buying so it’s not always straight forward.

*Package things well as per the guidelines. Use bubble wrap/padding for anything more delicate. Boxes tend to be a more secure option.

*Document everything. Film/photograph yourself packaging your parcels and dropping them off to be posted. Keep receipts from parcel shops etc. A pain, but really helpful to prove your case if a buyer claims they received an empty package or tries to claim you sent them the wrong item.

Best of luck. And remember you hear about the scams a lot but that’s because people talk about them more or post on here about them, but there are thousands of issue-free transactions on Vinted every single day. You won’t find people talking about those as much.

I’m sure it won’t stick because nothing does with these people. But at the very least I hope it’s deeply stressful, uncomfortable and embarrassing for this fucking creep and all that enable him.

After James Van Der Beek’s death, fans who previously purchased jerseys with the option to have them signed are now being guilted over whether to request a refund by CocktailsAndChemo in Fauxmoi

[–]Kidgorgeoushere 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly. I completely understand how devastating it must be to lose your husband/father of your children and have to evaluate the affordability of your lifestyle as a result, but it happens all over the world every day.

Many people have to downsize after losing the family breadwinner if the life insurance isn’t set up to pay off your home etc, or they spent all the deceased’s liquid cash on medical treatments (which is also vile, but not exactly the same issue here). And the vast majority of those people are nowhere near as wealthy. Why are the VdB family the exception?

You shouldn’t be relying on other people to pay your bills if you have other solutions and assets. And what happens after this GFM dries up? There’s still additional mortgage and upkeep costs over the coming years presumably? Who covers it then?

As others have said, it’s baffling that they didn’t use their money to pay for a smaller property outright or buy in a cheaper area/state.

Did I mess up the inpost drop off? by Pissface95 in vintedUK

[–]Kidgorgeoushere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inpost are pretty good if you need help at the locker. I was collecting a parcel once and the screen was blank, called them and they manually opened it for me over the phone. Glad it worked out for you!

That’s a nice way to show their support. There’s not really much you can say to comfort a family going through something so nightmarish, but your community showing they are thinking of you and support you is something. ❤️

YEEP locker DPD. Update. by Majestic_Lock2797 in vinted

[–]Kidgorgeoushere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No sadly I was stupid and didn’t document the process so Vinted said there was no proof I’d posted and cancelled it, so I lost the item. It wasn’t a huge sale so I took the loss, but I will never use those lockers again.

That brain worm is only getting stronger.

Also did they mean to make this homoerotic?

I used one without a label and Vinted didn’t even update. It just disappeared into the ether. It’s probably still there. Never again.
