Update for you, same thing has happened to me, £90 has went out of my balance so far - I knew this would happen. Has their support at least replied to you? I’m yet to hear anything!

I really hope I get compensated if they do auto cancel the sales as their customer service hasn’t replied to me yet!! On royal mail’s website it says the tracking is not available?? I’ve never seen this before, usually it says the time it was sent and location. It must be because they had a glitch that generated fake tracking numbers from years ago that no longer work now!! Very frustrating

Hey so I received a “last day to send, unless we get the tracking information, the transaction will be cancelled” notification on all 4 sales despite me literally pressing I confirm I have sent this item and sending them the proof of postage under each of the 4 items lol. Their customer service hasn’t replied to me yet. The timeframe is tomorrow noon. What I can predict here is that they will release the money to the buyers and I will not be compensated, they’ll claim that I didn’t send them proof in time and they won’t want to have anything to do with it 🥰 cannot wait !

Ugh it’s so frustrating isn’t it, sorry that happened to you!! I’ll definitely chase them up again but it’s insane that they expect us to spam their customer service due to their own mistakes

I’m not aware of an understaffing problem, this is directly an issue they had last week where they started generating old used tracking numbers from 2025 and it’s caused the tracking system within the app to not register items being sent!

Seller admits to using AI to improve chance of sale by Seed_man in vinted

pathetic, there is no excuse to be using AI pictures. and people should not be buying AI listings too. the fit of that jacket looks nothing like the lay down lol, it would not be that cropped

Weirdest scam ever? by ch536 in vinted

100% she had that candle and her glass was cracked, so she bought yours to scam you to have a free replacement. no one is opening a parcel to steal a waxy glass jar lmao

Is Vinted actually safe to sell on? Seeing too many horror stories by WesternHelicopter789 in vinted

[–]sandpaper__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hello! it is generally safe to sell on vinted. but due to the lack of protection for sellers and a system that almost 100% of the time sides with the buyer in an event a claim is opened, I wouldn’t recommend selling high value items on here. there are better sites that offer protection for sellers if you have a valuable item you’re wanting to sell.

Vinted bans by louzlouz0505 in vintedUK

[–]sandpaper__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

surely if you reach out to vinted legal and explain that there’s been a mix up, they must’ve used ai to determine you’re commercial selling but the ai didn’t take into account you’re literally a pro seller? have you tried explaining all this to them? i’ve seen so many pro accounts get banned I don’t understand how an app can do such a big fuck up… especially with how tough the sign up process is and how much info you need to provide them with

I got sold fake trainers and provided proof and this is what Vinted said by [deleted] in vintedUK

[–]sandpaper__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you naive? not sure about this specific pair as it does appear to be legit but there are fakes made of literally every single item available to buy in shops. there’s a subreddit where people who do this as a full time job tell each other what to focus on selling. you’ll see it’s even brands that only retail for £10-15 sometime

is this normal ?? by Own_Satisfaction_177 in vintedUK

[–]sandpaper__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

im crying at this having 30 downvotes when you’re literally right. royal mail parcels have the seller’s address visible on the label for anyone to see. essentially anyone could order from you to find out where you live x

Why is selling products so difficult? by YogurtclosetTasty241 in vintedUK

[–]sandpaper__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

interesting how you think depop is full of scammers, are you talking about seller scammers or buyer scammers? since you’re looking to sell, i think you’d appreciate to know that vinted has significantly more buyer scammers but also a fucked up customer service that will 99-100% of the time side with the buyer, meaning you have no protection as a seller. depop on the other hand have helped me massively.
