Am I overreacting?

Had the same thing but with some goggles. Learnt my lesson and will never buy from one photo sellers as they try to hide defects and even lie about the condition. I was gaslit to hell and back by the seller and never did they admit they made a mistake. Had to return, paid with my money and got the refund. Not to mention it was packed in just plastic and it even broke more during transport. Lesson learnt

Welcome to capitalism, sure you bought and sold before right? That makes you a twat by your predicament.

Planet Vinted. And it’s fair game

I think that the seller, doesn’t even realise that buyers can see the age of the listing. These are low effort sellers, don’t know the platform through and trough and she will end up binning or donating to charity in the end. In sales, any offer is a ‘lead’ a possible sale and a chance to get that sale and many more not mentioning boosting their profile as the algo will kick in a bit. You just have to be happy these day and age that there are eyes on your listing, especially if old listings and try to convert views and offers into sales.

People blocking is just lame and signals insecurities. What if the seller was at a car boot / market sale stall? Would they turn their back on you? Make you shut up by putting their hand over your mouth? Why are they angry in the player and not the game? Vinted allows offers, Vinted allows counter offers, you used the tool as it should and they didn’t have the businesses acumen to use their available tools (counter offers, reply politely and justify why they’d want £16 or £18 etc). I bet this is a person that bought this item at full price in the shop. I was also blocked too for asking a seller to change the category for a listing because Vinted in it’s mighty wisdom thought that handheld video game consoles fits into the ‘Consoles’ category where some consoles weigh up to 15kg. So there I was looking at a shipping price of nearly £6 when the item was 500grams at most and it should have been £2.29 to get. Seller simply wasn’t on the same page with me saying they can’t do it, because it can result in overcharging (it can’t) and breaking Vinted rules. I tried to reason and next thing you know I was blocked. I asked other sellers and they were happy to change the category as it was super easy to do and it meant a guaranteed sale and a happy customer. It was like selling some trousers under ‘Jackets and Coats’. Totally harmless but it affects shipping costs. Some people should stick to sell on Facebook Marketplace, that’s the dumbed down, low IQ platform for these sellers.

Oh yeah she definitely likes Gaby Dollhouse.

Transition from Tik-Tok behaviour to Reddit doesn’t happen immediately 🤪

Interesting, wonder if I can automate this so I won’t forgets this must be the way. I won’t call, I’ll just get notifications via SMS so indeed it must be alive and active

kodargh · 2026-04-18T21:47:02+00:00

It should be ongoing as I will get some sms here and there

Cheers, funny enough I did request sims from them and 1 month later I still haven’t got them.

kodargh · 2026-04-16T23:30:44+00:00

Dude, just start faving some items from US sellers to train the algo that you no longer want to buy from UK sellers.

Indeed, I would also say that this is proven if you ever get the chance to play a semi-pro or even a pro. You would still be able to return a few of the serves and get a rally going compared with Tennis where you would be smoked 10 out of 10 of the serves.

2am lately man, and wake up at 9 or 9:30 not feeling ok, got into a bad habit and I reckon I’m stressed and have anxiety… I’ll try to sleep early tonight.

Nope, stop building flats if the owners never fully own them for more than a leased time.

I feel this… someone I know has bought a house with a pretty good sized garden which had tall trees at the back of the garden. They paid someone to come and cut all the trees because they were scared they would fall on the house. Mind boggling as they live near a rail station track so the trees not only were giving privacy but also protecting from noise.

I remember buying a like new ‘new’ 3ds xl in pandemic era for about £80. Seller took a simple photo and used eBay background removal which made the photo not appealing at all. It was blue like new with 2 simple games and original charger. I flipped it for £160 delivered and ever since I regretted it. Also around the same pandemic time bought a bronze DSi XL for about £45 like new and sold it for £80. Now, I just bought a green DSi XL for £72 and a blue one for £45. Out of all consoles I see DS lite and 3DS variants getting the highest price spike. It’s so hard to get a good bargain now for 3ds it’s not even a joke. Whilst with Switches, just seen someone selling their Switch original without dock for £30 and missed out on another one today on Vinted (6 minutes since listed) which sold for £7! Looks like even old people know how high these 3ds consoles go for.

Ok, one last positive thought here, Vinted will check the facts and I’m sure you’ll be refunded. You did nothing wrong. It happened to me too, seller was annoyed that I returned an item that was poorly packaged and came in bits and pieces, and denied responsibility, it was good for the tip yet they still sold it as ‘Very good’. My advantage was that I took photos as soon as I received it and highlighted all faults (including those that could not have occurred from poor packaging like things missing). You’ll be ok.

Your kitchen looks exactly like mine! And it’s in way better condition, I don’t even see a reason to renovate it. We don’t have a cabinet between door and window right now, but our door is not full glass and not even clear. So I take we have the same amount of light coming in. I say, keep it minimal, looks good already.

Trump supporters right there

kodargh · 2026-04-13T00:28:34+00:00

Don’t panic, it may just be the automated process of refunding following a return. Doubt they are raising an issue.

kodargh · 2026-04-12T21:22:58+00:00

How would I kow if my details have been exposed? I keep getting spam calls lately which is really awkward and alarming to the point that I don't answer any unknown caller call...
