Vinted question - bundles and other buyers

New to selling on Vinted - someone has requested a bundle and I’ve gone back with the parcel size. Awaiting on them confirming that’s ok and buying. In the mean time can someone buy the items they are after? The buying seems to automatically go through for single items. Sorry if a stupid question eep.

I would just feel bad like they’d been gazumped

I think you can reserve the items for that person. But that means other people cannot buy. Sometimes you get people want a bundle, but then who never pay, so generally I find it better not to reserve.

Yea, other people can still buy those items. If they want the bundle, they should crack on and buy it. I’ve only ever reserved something for someone once and she pratted about so I won’t be doing that again!

Ah thank you, yes that makes sense if they go away and change their mind.@NeverThatSerious that make me laugh - true it’s kids clothes selling for about £1 each so not worth it if you start adding in extra hassle!

Once you confirm parcel size and they accept it , it's sold. If they dither about then someone else can sneak up on the inside and buy.

I reserve the items and message the buyer to say they have 24 hours to complete their purchase.

Thanks. Gosh starting to think it’s not really worth the time investment! 30 min round trip to drop a £1 parcel 😂

I think if you can tie it in with when you’d be going into town anyway, it’s worth doing! I have a similar length trip to the parcel shop but tie it in with going into town for food shopping, sons swimming lessons etc.
