Brand new DMs not selling on Vinted

I put my brand new Doc Martens (pink desert boots) - never been worn, still in the box on vinted and fb marketplace and they’re not selling. They are the wrong size for me and too late to return.
Where else could I try listing them?
I’ve put them on for £85. They are currently sold out on the DM site.

Yep, Depop. But you'll pay a whack in sellers fees. No chance would I spend £85 on something from Vinted.

£45 max. Even then you may struggle. Not worth the faff I'm afraid

They were brand new and bought for £90.

How much should I list them for?
I’ve added a photo of them.

Most I’ve ever spent in one transaction on vinted was £55 and that was the only bad transaction I’ve had too. Would never spend over £20 on there now.

That price seems super high. I bought new with tags DMs last year for £45, which was a bargain on there but I think others were priced around £55-60.

I wouldn’t pay £85 on vinted. Buyer protection is rubbish, I would only buy something for a small amount I was prepared to take a gamble on. EBay? Or even fb marketplace

They appear to be £84 on the doc marten’s website.
Why would anyone take a chance on yours at full price??

How much were they?

Kangarude · 26/02/2025 18:08

DM’s are well know as scammed items on Vinted. I think people avoid them and £85 is a lot of money

rainache · 26/02/2025 18:08

Wrong time of year for selling DMs, people will be shopping for spring / summer bits now!

Hercisback1 · 26/02/2025 18:06

No one will pay that much on vinted sorry.

Ebay?

Newusername3kidss · 26/02/2025 18:05

Maybe eBay? Or local Facebook marketplace groups. People expect absolute bargains on vinted - I had a brand new Zara dress and put it at £15 (was £50) and someone offered me £3!
