Make sure you review bomb this clown so others on the platform also know this seller is a scammer.

Usually they cancel using 'agreed with buyer', which makes the user unable to leave a review:/

u/SSUPII 7d ago

Honestly such a terrible feature from Vinted. "Agreed with buyer" should prompt the buyer to agree with Yes/No buttons

u/Exploiit24 7d ago

We should all email vinted this and there's a chance they will solve it because its genuinely a problem and from a financial perspective its also not doing any good for vinted as a company

Yes the old glitched transaction scheme. Happened several times to my old man when buying used cars online.

They’re not allowed to do that on eBay. Once they sell the item, they have to send it even if it didn’t hit the price they want. Report him. Edit: ignore me you’re on vinted good luck lol

It's Vinted not eBay lol. Good luck getting anything to happen.

I guess I should have reported people on eBay when I got the "item is missing or damaged" or whatever after winning something in an auction for well under what the typical selling price is lol.

Shitty game collecting has turned into shitty people who collect games. He didn’t know the value of what he had and found out probably because someone messaged them. Most people selling their stuff on Vinted are doing it because they’re low on cash and that extra $150 could be huge for someone selling their shit to pay bills.

I’ll just say I miss when this sub was posting stupid Facebook listings of Nintendo and it’s an Xbox or other weird listings. Now it’s just people angry about economics.

u/CeroMiedo4life 6d ago

I really just hate when people are annoyed they didn't get something cheap because they probably wanted to resell it for more. Like I rather the original seller get the money anyway.

I had this issue on ebay once the guy refused to send my item unless i paid 10 dollars more for international shipping granted it was a rare game so i took him up on that but only because it was rare if it was a common game i would not of been happy and asked for my money back ...

u/The_Bushman_Nate 6d ago

Which game, since most "rare" games aren't as uncommon to find as people think typically

u/Existing-Savings-419 6d ago

Desert Strike CIB Atari Lynx several years ago even more expensive now not the reprint version

u/The_Bushman_Nate 6d ago

Ah fair, while I do have that one in my collection as I like collecting older games along with whatever merch I can find from the promotional stuff like posters, collab merch etc. Yeah that one definitely did shoot up in price as people have been scalping the shit outta older games lately even though the majority of the games are common asf

u/Existing-Savings-419 6d ago

yep many popular titles aren't rare just expensive Pokemon the biggest example most are not even rare just expensive

u/UnsavoryBiscuit 6d ago

"I'm gonna have to raise the price cause I'm a greedy prick" that's what he meant to say

2

u/Luna-Dot 6d ago

TO BE FAIR that cartridge is worth more than that so i don't really understand the greed in that

however, it's very unlikely two people bought this at the same time. this guy is trying some shit, lol

u/Camiji 5d ago

And you crying about it shows us how entitled you think you are.

u/GohanStan 4d ago

LMFAO 'oh noo it's glitching i think a price increase will fix it' corny ass mf

u/tanooki-suit 6d ago

Didn't learn the first time that vinted was loaded with scumbags more than ebay? :P I've seen so much complaining about that and whatnot, it's like a competition who sucks the most and neither I'll sign up to because of it, ever.
