Vinted question - pickup point

8 replies

Mamma37868 · 06/10/2024 20:47

I bought a couple of items off vinted and chose a pickup point, thinking it would default to the place I used previously.

I started to buy a third item and realised that the nearest pickup wasn't my preferred one. But I can't see a way to check the address of the previous two pickups.

Is there a way to check? Or should I cancel the two orders and try to buy them again?

When they arrive, you’ll get a text, an email and a Vinted message saying where they are and that they’re ready for collection with the codes. Hth.

Once the seller posts them and the tracking is updated that might have the information for you. But you will get a text or email when they’re ready to collect telling you where to collect from.

It's mad that I can't see the full information about where it's getting sent to. The nearest point is actually not convenient to me. So since I can't see the addres it sounds like it would be better to cancel?

Message the sellers to see what info they have?

They have QR codes for pickups but no idea which one. I've cancelled. It's just a really strange quirk that you can't check the delivery address yourself.

When placing the order, if you select pick up point, you have to scroll down before you pay to see the delivery point listed there. You can also select an alternative delivery point at this stage. I get what you mean though, I have 4 points near me depending on the seller's and my preferences, so I select at purchase and remember when it arrives!

I need advice with a similar issue as I selected a locker because it was the only available option and want to ask the seller if they can send it w a courier but don’t know if they’ll have issues proving delivery and don’t want them to think it’s a scam and withdraw completely

The courier option can not be changed after you have paid.

If the seller sends by a courier other than the one you have selected, they risk the transaction being cancelled. You get a refund, and they get negative feedback.

They need to use the label purchased to ensure they get paid.

Vinted will also not get involved if there are any issues as the transaction has gone outside of the app.

You will either have to pick up from the locker or cancel the transaction and ask the seller to enable more options of courier if they are able to if you want to buy the item.
