To ask would you be bothered to sell things for £1 or £2 on Vinted

I do it all the time as I live next to InPost locker and corner shop which accepts Evri and DPD.
It's not about a price, package and labels cost too. As I'm buying a lot from Vinted myself I always reusing package and choose digital labels.
It all adds up. I got £17 last week from selling kids clothes £1-£2.

It depends, I wouldn’t sell one item for a pound but if I listed a few more expensive items at the same time, I would. It all adds up and I have a locker nearby.

Yes, I have. I have cleared a big bundle of baby socks for £1. I'm happy that someone is getting use of them! I also have Inpost lockers a couple of minutes walk away.

@Jjjjsajj i do because I hate waste so see it as recycling.

I’ve also given stuff away for “free” by listing for minimum price (£1) if it’s something that’s say, got a tiny stain but otherwise good/popular item (eg Autograph top, good quality jacket) - I make it clear this is the case and if someone is happy to pay the £1 and postage, they can have it. Charity shops where I live (naice area) were refusing donations as too full, and homeless charities only seem to want donations of cash/toileteries hence my recycling via Vinted.

edited to add - also reuse Amazon packaging and there are two good drop offs within walking distance.

No chance

I do but pass the kicker on my way to the train station for work. I wouldn’t if I had to drive stuff to post

I don’t as am time poor, but am very grateful to those that do as I buy a lot on Vinted. I particularly buy larger sizes of the kids favourite clothes that have been outgrown or worn out, fantastic when they do t have to grow out of their favourite jumper.

Yes I do. It takes 30 seconds to photograph and post a kids top. I bought a huge amount of plastic bags of Amazon for about £3 or reuse what I can. I already have a label printer, which makes it a lot easier. I drop them off at lockers when I’m food shopping or on the school run.

Every now and then something will sell for a little more, £5 or £10. Womensware sells quickly and for slightly more I find. Kids toys too. It soon adds up. I’m putting all Vinted and cashback money into a separate savings pot this year and I made around £90 in January.

Anything that id sell for less than £5 I give to s charity shop instead

I’m very interested in this as I’m hoping to sell some things on Vinted.
I just can’t make sense of it!
AIBU to ask if anyone can point me towards an idiot’s guide to Vinted please?
For example, I don’t have a printer; can I hand write a label or does it need QR code.
OP sorry for derailing this thread.

Definitely not. With the cost of a new mailing bag, tissue paper, and thank you card, it wouldn’t be worth it, not to mention my time spent ironing the item it it’s clothing, packing it nicely, printing the label, and driving to the drop off point. I mostly sell new items that I’ve never worn, or things that have only been worn a couple of times, and anything that I would sell for less than £10 goes in the charity shop bag.

No because I’m not sorting, listing and packing for anything less than a fiver. However my friend does as she says the frequent sales keeps her profile high and she sells other stuff at higher prices.

I would have said yes as I had several local postage options. Mainly books though at this price. However all apart from evri have stopped the service as impacting their core business (petrol station and local shop) so I’ll be stopping as not going 12 miles to post. Will donate to local places

I sell my daughter's old things for £1-2 if they're decent, and save the money for something new for her. New to me, that is.

I do. Almost everything I make on Vinted get overpaid to my mortgage immediately so every £1 helps! I also live within walking distance and it's a nice amble down with the dog, so I don't see it as not worth it.

I’ve bought on Vinted, but I’ve not sold. I couldn’t be bothered packing etc., I’m not in need of a few ££, and I volunteer in a charity shop so I’d rather donate. Perhaps if it had been around when I was young I’d have felt differently. Teen GD sells regularly for very little.

Yes, I’d rather get £1 for something than give it away for free and I reuse packing and have most of the lockers/parcel shops open 24/7 or 6-11pm near me so dispatching is no hassle.

Really annoying when even the £1 stuff won’t sell though!

No. I live rurally so it’s a 20 min drive to any lockers and even with an electric car it’s not cost effective.

I buy a lot on vinted but give to charity shops in lieu of cash donations. I can’t be bothered to sell even the good stuff.

Yes. But not for the money, for the sustainability aspect. Eg I’d bought DD some tights which she then decided she hated and reverted to socks so I had 6 pairs of virtually unworn M&S school tights. The likelihood of someone needing that in our local charity shop is tiny but they were snapped up on Vinted. Likewise I managed to buy her 10 pairs of knee high socks for £1. Not as pleased about the bargain as I was about the fact they’d been given another lease of life. I’d happily give things like that away if I could.

No, not worth my time. For dc clothes I do bundles for 10£ that sells quickly. The least I sold something for was 3£.

Yes I would if I could sell the stuff. I’ve put books on for £1 and no offers. I’ve just dumped a bag of stuff at the charity shop because I couldn’t sell it.

I do sometimes ! I only leave up around a week and if it doesn’t go then il charity it

it does add up - last few weeks I made 50£ with a mix of Items listed between 1£ & 10£

I live opposite the shop that I use to post the stuff so I literally just run over the road and hand it in
🤷‍♀️

No, not worth my time. I put things of that value into bundles or donate them. I do this a lot with children’s clothes.

Yup, I've sold a fair number of things for £1!

No I absolutely wouldn’t . Huge amount of time with no return .
