AIBU to be annoyed at Vinted?

Since their 'rationalisation' of the sizing, there's now twice as many items to view because they don't separate say 12s and 14s. And shouldn't sellers be obliged to put inside leg or dress length? I'm sick of having to message the sellers. Even if I'm only charging £3 for something, I always put inside leg/length.

Any other issues for frequent users?

I agree. When listing items I always show photos with the exact measurements.on. I wish other sellers would do the same. I bought a skirt advertised as a size 8 in a brand I wear so I was expecting it to have a 28in waist. When it arrived, I kid you not, I thought I'd received a child's skirt. I measured the waist and it was 22 inches. It had obviously been altered but the seller didn't bother to mention that!

I'm a 14-16 and need to search both 12-14 and 16-18. And still get 10s and 22s. How hard can it be to have a normal search function?

I couldn’t be arsed measuring dress lengths, especially for low amounts of money. I’d probably just charity shop instead.

But the sizing is really annoying

I just dont buy clothes off it any more

Im a size 14/16 so dont fancy trawling through 4 different sizes

They have shot themselves in the foot
