Does anyone know how the In-Post lockers work?

I'm selling some stuff on Vinted. Was getting fed up of printing the labels, as they are so ink heavy, so tried the Digital option. When I went to the In-Post lockers and scanned the QR code, it opened a locker for me, but there was no label printed! Trusting the process, I put the parcel in the locker. Does anyone know what happens next? Does the person who picks up the parcel put the label on it? Felt so wrong to leave the parcel there with no label!!

Ha! Yes I felt the same when I first used it too...but it worked fine. I always use the digital labels now so I don't have to print out ..so much easier.

The parcel gets a label attached when it is picked up. You did everything right and once you are used to them the lockers are really easy.

If you use the app you can drop off and collect parcels without having to touch the grubby screen.

Ah, thanks for this. I was printing the labels before, but WHY do they make them so ink heavy?? Phew, feel better now!!

That is how they work HOWEVER in post digital labels are not a reliable method for Vinted. I sell items literally every day, and in post are the only ones that went missing. If you have a google for in post and see the problems, it's really not worth using.
They often get the stickers mixed up somehow and get put on the wrong parcel.
