Selling on Vinted

I am long overdue a wardrobe declutter. I have a few bits that will probably be worth selling and I have heard that Vinted is better for this than eBay these days. However, I am clueless! Any tips please? How do I decide a price (I'm used to eBay auctions where you just set a minimum). What's the best thing to do about postage? Thanks!

Vinted is very user friendly and you don't need to worry about setting postage price as they do that for you.

Good thing about selling on Vinted is that you keep 100% of what you sell for.

On the downside, prices are competitive and buyers are usually looking for bargains at jumble sale prices. Be prepared to set your asking price higher than you are willing to accept as a minimum as there will be potential buyers offering only 50% of what is advertised. For example, I had a Monsoon cardigan for £4 on sale, but buyer still tried to get it for £2.50. We settled at £3.

It also tells you what similar items have sold for when you fill the details in.
It's good to add items regularly as new items go to the top and then buyers have more chance of seeing all your items.

Something I haven't sussed yet is how to automatically accept a minimum offer. Anyone know? I've tried going back into the listed item amd edit but can see where you may be able to do that.
