Who pays the fees

Sellers pay no selling fee on Vinted. The buyer pays a Buyer Protection fee and the shipping on top of your price, so the total they see is higher than what you asked. Optional paid promotions, such as bumping an item, are available to sellers. Fees can differ by country and change over time, so check Vinted's help centre for the current rules.

Photos that get clicks

  • Use daylight and a plain background.
  • Show the front, the back, the brand label and the size label.
  • Photograph flaws close up: buyers trust sellers who show them.
  • Your first photo is what people see in search, so make it the clearest one.

Title and description

Start the title with the brand and the item, then one key detail such as size or colour: "Levi's 501 jeans W32 L32, dark blue". In the description give the size and, for clothes, measurements (for example chest and length), the material from the care label, how it fits and the condition, including any flaws. Add a few words people search for, such as the style or the occasion.

Choose the condition honestly

Vinted asks you to choose a condition, from "New with tags" to "Satisfactory". Picking a better condition than the item has is a common cause of disputes and returns. If in doubt, choose the lower one and explain in the description.

Pricing

Search Vinted for the same brand and item in a similar condition and price within that range. Many buyers send offers, so leave a little room. Bundle discounts encourage buyers to take several items in one parcel, which also saves you trips to the post office.

Shipping

Pack items securely, ship within the time Vinted gives you and keep the proof of postage until the buyer has confirmed the order.

Write listings faster

The FlipLens listing generator turns a photo into a Vinted title and description in your language and tells you what buyers will ask about, such as size or measurements.
