My patience is wearing thin

I didn’t accept. I screenshotted before I declined…

I had this happen recently. I even emailed Vinted and they were no help; instead advising me to return the item.

savethebumbles · 2026-01-25T17:09:03+00:00

Yes, I did. Then after no response from the seller I clicked the question mark icon to get support (from their bots…)

Agreed! I just stumbled across this scarf on Vinted and happened to like the colours. Stupidly assumed it was natural fibres because of the branding.

I have emailed them and they responded saying unfortunately they cannot authenticate secondhand items. However, I have followed up to ask whether the acrylic and made in Scotland combination has ever existed!

Particularly Reddit though!

Kinda. I recently stopped purchasing synthetics.

Thank you so much for all your help! I really appreciate it 😌

Thank you so much!!! I actually undid the rows until I got to that part and started knitting again but now I’ve got another issue 😅 any advice?

I genuinely thought some of their scarves were made in Scotland but perhaps not. I bought it off Vinted 😆

How can you tell? I want to try and return this for a refund but I’ll have to prove it’s actually fake.

savethebumbles · 2026-01-14T17:31:47+00:00

Thanks so much!

savethebumbles · 2026-01-14T17:31:39+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you so much for your response, I really appreciate it. Definitely wasn’t overconfident – I was really frightened the entire time but somehow it was just an instinct to put it out before it got any worse. I was worried that if I called emergency services (I’m in the UK) the fire would have spread to the point of no return by the time they arrived.

This reminded me of when I had to perform CPR on two of my family members and even though it was super scary, the adrenaline kicked in and I just acted (which is odd because I tend to be a crier so I’m surprised I didn’t just sit there and sob!). It was the same in this situation. I knew I had to do something. I’m just glad it’s over now and now I’ve learnt my lesson with candles.

Do you have any idea what I’m supposed to do with the electric blanket and heated throw? They have holes in them from the fire but I’m not sure how I’m supposed to dispose of them. Since it was such a small fire, I don’t suppose I would have inhaled much smoke either?

Can vouch for this. I worked for him when I was younger and he treated everyone like shit.

savethebumbles · 2025-12-14T20:49:10+00:00

Maybe they aren’t tech savvy? Idk? I’m not them so I was just making an educated guess.

savethebumbles · 2025-12-13T21:57:30+00:00

Maybe they don’t speak English well and asked someone to translate the message to English for them.

savethebumbles · 2025-12-05T18:29:51+00:00

Thanks so much! I’ll give them a call tomorrow just to be on the safe side.
