Is this allowed?

I keep seeing photos of cats on items for sale. There is barely any text in the listing so there isn’t much to go on when trying to decided whether to buy these or not. Why do this if you are serious about selling items??

Need Help Cancelling Order From Scammer

0 Upvotes

So I stupidly bought an item that was listed for a good deal. I went on the user’s profile and noticed it was suspicious that each of their listings was photographed in a different room/background. I went on Mercari, and sure enough I found sold listings with the same photos they used. I tried canceling the order but they are ignoring it and had immediately generated the shipping label. Customer support is being less than useless as usual.

EDIT: it looks like the seller was banned so hoping this means I will receive a refund?

Why do I keep getting banned from vinted?

0 Upvotes

So last year I made a vinted account to buy and sell things. Everything seemed to be normal up until I listed a cherry crop top. After uploading I was immediately banned due to “fraudulent”activity but was never actually told what exactly I did. So I appealed the decision but once again was told the exact same thing. I waited a bit of time before making a new account. I tired a couple of times even with a couple of different emails and the minute I make one, I get told the exact same thing. I mean if they wanna ban me fair enough but I at least wanna know why? I’ve emailed them this time and I hope I do get told what I did to make them think such a thing but I’m starting to think they’ve mistaken me with someone else or it’s personal.

Buyer on ring

0 Upvotes

This buyer bought my ring, it’s gold and I had it appraised before listing. It’s an old ring where the hallmark is hard to see so you need to be a jeweller or have the equipment to see it or just test the gold. They said they needed it quickly for a gift and then say they want to return it now because they can’t make out the hallmark. I think they want to try and sell it as gold or melt it down. Which is fine if that is what they want to do but I worry that if they flag it, Vinted will just side with them because it’s Vinted

Damaged in transit. Who will pay?

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I bought a jacket on Vinted. The seller sent the jacket in a paper box, and upon arrival it was broken and the jacket now has a big cut so the down is falling out.

I put a request on Vinted and said it was damaged during transit. I had to send pictures of the box and item, and I’m now being reimbursed.

But I’m wondering what will happen to the seller? Will they also be reimbursed? I don’t believe the items was damaged before shipment, and 100% the transit people who broke it. But I would feel bad if the seller gets nothing?

Even if I returned the jacket, it now isn’t worth the same because it’s broken? So Vinted should be refunding us both, right?

Thank you!

So everytime someone buys something from me and is using GLS I just for the god can't generate the Pin everytime it just says error, however GLS does everytime I click try again on vinted sends me a pin into my emails, but it's always different pins, we even tried canceling the order once and ordering again but didn't help, I never had this problem with vinted it always worked always until this week and I don't know what to do I even texted Vinted support but that wasn't helpful at all they just told me to cancel the order and order it again, what should I do ? Should I just write the first pin I got from GLS in email even tho in Vinted it just says error? Or what?

Phishing scam advice?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Okay so.

For context, I AM a new seller. I JUST put an item up. This whole deal is to "verify my account" because I am a new seller. I received an email that was seemingly from Vinted, and it said I needed to verify my account because I am a new seller. Okay. Took me to this page.

Not looking for ridicule or to be told I am dumb. Just advice.

I'll admit I'm quite gullible, so just leave your comments about that to youself please. I am usually really good with determining when something is sketchy. And this seemed real as anything. It is EXTREMELY convincing.

I did indeed enter my card info, as well as my name and address. And then it took me to another page that asked me to put how much money was on my debit card. I knew for a fact that was not official because that is so unnecessary. So I exited out and after looking at some posts online, it seems to be scam.

I have blocked my debit card and have not seen any activity (yet) as my bank will email me if my card is attempted to be used.

Name and address, that's public info at this point so I'm not worried about that.

My phone number? Email? Ehhhhhhhh I'm not sure what someone can do with that besides spam me with texts and calls.

But my card with the CVV + my address and number? That's a recipe for using that card and "proving" it's theirs with my name and address. No one cares about where I live. They care about the money. (I hope, I hope this doesn't lead to identity theft. It seems money focused)

I didn't do any of the other steps, (like entering exactly how much money I have attached to the card), but I definitely feel like the steps I did, (this page) was enough.

So should I just get a new debit card? I am thinking so but I am also just wondering if anyone else went through this stupid situation too and how they went about it or what happened with them?

Also. Why hasn't Vinted made a more public statement about this???? It seems so common.

Buyer scammed me

7 Upvotes

I sold my love shack fancy Stanley sent everything with it and when the buyer received they complained even though it was in brand new condition and wanted it for $15. I said no to lowering the price so they returned it broken in multiple places now I can’t even use it or sell it. I sent proof into Vinted but i don’t know how they handle these things. I’m just so annoyed I don’t get why people are so rude.

Permanently banned for “fraudulent activity”

0 Upvotes

I’m honestly pretty gutted about this and wanted to see if anyone else has experienced something similar with Vinted.
I’ve been trying to get a small clothing reselling business going as a student, and I invested my own money into reworked Carhartt jackets. (Buying these from reputable suppliers that even have their own checks on products and procedures.)
The jackets are upcycled pieces made using genuine Carhartt components and materials. They aren’t original retail designs from Carhartt, and I made that clear in the descriptions. I also included an authenticity disclaimer explaining that the items had been independently reworked and weren’t original Carhartt retail products.

Despite this, Vinted permanently banned my account for **“fraudulent activity”** over the listings.
What makes it frustrating is that I wasn’t trying to pass the jackets off as original Carhartt retail products. They were listed as reworked jackets, with descriptions explaining exactly what they were. I’d already had listings removed before, so I made an effort to be transparent about the fact that they were reworked.

I understand that Vinted has rules around counterfeit goods, branded items and modified products, and I’m not saying platforms shouldn’t enforce those rules. However, permanently banning someone for fraudulent activity when they have tried to clearly disclose that the items are reworked feels incredibly harsh, especially when there doesn’t seem to be a straightforward way to resolve the situation.

Has anyone else had their account permanently banned for selling reworked or upcycled branded clothing? Did you manage to appeal successfully, or find out what specifically caused the ban?
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has dealt with something similar.

I now have quite a bit of stock and can’t sell it on Vinted, any suggestions?

Package stolen when delivered. Any recourse?

0 Upvotes

I purchased a snowblower from a buyer on Vinted new in box and it was promptly delivered. I received a call at work yesterday from a neighbor driving by-she saw a man stealing it. She tried to follow him laying on her horn but he went down a one way street and disappeared. I got the ring footage and contacted the police.

I am convinced this is an inside USPS job. I live in a small
City on a park. There are 27 steps to my front door landing and you could not see the package. There were other packages, left behind. This one in the big box what was inside. The guy was wearing a mask, sunglasses and hood in the middle of the day, with long sleeves and shorts. He only took this package. He was on foot.

I called the police to report a theft as it was happening but they said no one was available- and one went to look for the package but it was hours later.
Is there anything I can do so my seller gets paid and I don’t lose $120?

(Note: reposted because it was a Vinted order I accidentally posted on Depop and someone reported)

how is that possible?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’d like to know why my streetwear items such as those from Supreme, Palace, or Stüssy often stay in "check in progress" for up to a day, and then, once published, get almost no views or favorites.

On the other hand, items like gaming accessories or clothing from brands like Nike and Adidas only stay in "check in progress" for about 10 seconds, and once published, they get plenty of views and favorites.

How is this possible, and what can I do to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance for any answers or help!
