To relist something I've underpriced

I've been the buyer in this situation - the seller cancelled the sale and messaged me to explain. Annoying as I thought I'd found a bargain but I did understand.

There will be an automatic 1 star review for cancelling the sale. You can repost the item after with corrected price.

It's a really scummy thing to do

I've done this. Annoying but gotta let it go

I think you should honour the sale and post the item to the buyer. Firstly as it's the moral thing to do, secondly as you might get a poor review. This will put a lot of people off buying from you.

I can't answer regarding children's clothes, but I find with adults clothing that certain brands tend to sell better on vinted. For example, anything from Zara that I have listed seems to sell quickly. The trick is trying to work out what the 'desirable' brands are (I have favourited a mixture of items in the relevant size to see what sells quickly). The seasons do play a part, I.e summer dresses sell well in early spring when there is less competition but sun gets people thinking about summer clothes.

I've found clothes and jewellery sell well, not so much anything else that I have listed (e.g housewares or games).

I only have selected the postage options that are convenient for me, so no long trips to the other side of town for the sake of a couple of quid. I use holiday mode if I'm away/it's inconvenient to post anything for several days.

In terms of hassle factor- it depends on what you are trying to achieve. Are you mainly selling to declutter? Are you trying to make some extra money? Are you running a small side type business?

I think if you cancel the sale the person who’s bought it can’t leave a review, it happened to me when I bought something then the seller said they’d lost it.

You'll be unlikely to get £20 for a top on Vinted though, most things (even brand new with tags) go for really cheap.

I think a cancellation on either side within 24 hours doesn't record so there's no review

Surely if it's sold you would have to cancel the sale to relist?

That's the part that would piss me off as a buyer. And I absolutely wouldn't buy it after.

If however an item is still up, absolutely up the price - depending on how quick you want it gone - I've done this a few times evening just to give me the wiggle room for a buyer to offer and then for me to drop to the price I actually want.

On my Vinted account I've turned off all the postage options except Evri Home Delivery or Parcel Shop. The buyer pays for postage and I print off a digital label at my local corner shop. Quick and easy.

I sell things on Vinted but anything that would go for less than £10 I don't bother and it goes to the charity shop instead. EBay is no better, in fact until recently was worse as it charged seller fees (Vinted doesn't). But I heard they've now waived seller fees for clothes. Tbh I think Vinted and Depop are more popular with buyers these days though.

I sell most of DSs old tops on vinted for £1-£2. I get loads of people who buy bundles (which I then discount). I've made about £50 in a month doing this and it's not really any hassle. I bulk buy the post bags and mainly use the inpost boxes so I just drop a load off when I'm on my way to the local food shop or as an excuse to go for a wander on my lunch break.

If you've made a sale and don't complete it, you get an auto 1 star review. If you buy stuff from ppl and don't leave a review, they get an auto 5 star review.

We can't really answer that, depends how much you've got to sell, whether it's branded, whether you can be arsed listing the stuff., whether you really need the money? I CBA photographing and listing everything so I give it to a woman who collects for charity who I found through our local FB group

IF you thought it was going to be a hassle, you should have charged more. Don't make that mistake again. But fulfill your obligations and post the top.

My advice would be to sell the top to the person who bought it at £2, it's not their fault you feel it's under priced. You could put the next one up at £20 but there's no guarantee whatsoever it will sell, it might only have sold BECAUSE it was £2.

I bought a pair of sandals recently from Vinted, they were £25 new with tags but they retail at £80, your stuff is only worth what someone wants to pay.

You get a 1 star review for not seeing the same through

Before listing clothing, it's a good idea to search for the same brand and category (eg "sweatshirt") to see what sort of price is the going rate. Then you can price sensibly.

Cancelling a sale and relisting the same item for a higher price will get you bad feedback which will put other buyers off.

Says them who posted on here in the first place..
🙄

I am calm....

Just wondered why you think Vinted is hassle?

Relist the item and have the buyer leave a review, then you'll find out who's "hassle"
