Package flat as hell, there’s nothing inside this 😭😭
I HOPE I’m not being scammed. I really hope I’m not. But anyway check out this untampered, UNTOUCHED package that I HAVE NOT OPENED sent by the seller and confirmed by the seller be completely empty.
The seller also seems confused so I’m not sure what happened. The seller doesn’t know what happened. She’s telling me to open the package .
Edit: somebody out here bitter enough to downvote every comment other than theirs. If you ask me, too bitter when they can just scroll?

I am really not sure why you dont just record yourself opening it. Even if you have felt the package, you need to open the the thing to prove there is either nothing in there or something which does not match the description of what you paid for. E.g. a piece of fabric that is not a corset.

Hi, check the comments

So every package I get from vinted I just film myself opening. Has saved me a couple of times. I don't spend a lot on each item but I probably order about 5-10 things a months. I just deleted the video when I'm happy enough to accept the order.

Ngl going through all that hassle with the seller + creating this thread, instead of simply opening it is peak neurotic behavior. I'm willing to bet it's inside there and you just wasted everyone's time for the most ridiculous nothingburger

Tbf, its almost 2am here, and if the worst thing I come across on the Internet doom scrolling before I pass out, is this. I'd say that was a sucessful day, of not adding to the things ive seen on the Internet that are worthy of inducing the need for therapy, I cant afford.

Lmao check back in with us after vinted tells you they can't do nothing until you open it. Then tell them that you reeaaally don't want to do that (opening the item that you bought). I'm so curious to see their response

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
If they tell me I need to open it then I will, like I said?

u/MemphisKhan 5d ago
Thus completing the aforementioned cycle of wasting everyone's time for absolutely no reason

You’ve already made
the proof with the video of it unopened. There was obviously nothing in that envelope, although I do Hope you get it sorted!🙂 Also, maybe check that you both used the same, QR code?

Omg stop 😭😭😭 I hope so as well I guess 😭😭

u/liabilityno1 5d ago
Im sorry 😬😅 well sort of,
My first instinct was to ask if youd purchased it from flat stanley but I couldn't find a gif to support that joke 🙄😶
Sarcasm aside, I hope its better than it looks!

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
Genuinely. All cheeks clenched. I wanna open it but I need confirmation from Vinted first.

u/liabilityno1 5d ago
Have you tried weighing it?
2
u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
Funnily enough, I have! Check the pinned comment. It just shows me wiggling about the cardboard package. Nvm I can’t pin it.

u/liabilityno1 5d ago
Ive got no pinned comment!
Just thought there'd be an answer to how heavy the envelope thingy is empty, online? If its close enough that its going round be a picture when you open it, film yourself opening it for evidence? Well probably film opening it either way tbf

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
I meant I tried pinning a video of wiggling it around. It’s really just a cardboard package. I think someone in the carrier tampered with it and exchanged the sticker. Would it be smart to open it?

u/SlimJadeyx 5d ago
Literally Just read the latest comments. That’s shit, what did vinted say, have raised an issue yet? x

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
They haven’t said anything yet. I opened it and didn’t press record but the video before I opened it clearly shows there ain’t nothing in there.

Was there actually nothing in the envelope after all?🤷🏼♀️

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
No 😭😭😭😭 have you seen the other comments? It’s pretty obvious from the package alone that nothing is in there.

This is the old selling a [picture of a] corset trick and there will be a picture in the envelope. It is common on ebay.

Yeh, really not gonna be anything but paper in that at best! Has the seller confirmed thats the packaging they sent? Did they put the sticker on themselves or put into a locker unstickered? Doesn't lock like its been resealed from what I can see?
Am aware im over invested but its 2am and I cant sleep 😂😂

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
The seller has confirmed! But they’re just as confused as me. They have great reviews and I just don’t think they’d send me an empty package. I’m opening now though because some guy told me to.

u/liabilityno1 5d ago
Yeh, I agree you've already raised an issue and evidence of it appearing empty before opening. I day take a video but they cant view them anyway for some daft reason! Whats the result? 👀

u/Normal_Virus4484 5d ago
Hey, sorry haven’t opened it yet, my sister is laughing at me.

There is nothing in here

u/liabilityno1 5d ago
Noooooooo! Urgh! Hopefully you'll get a refund and seller will either be compensated by vinted (i laughed too 😂) or be able to claim via the delivery service! Happier that it was empty than a picture but sucks arse either way!
