Vinted Sellers

[KatieA12B3C]

If you are sent a low offer .....

As a seller do you always decline or just ignore it?

I always decline as they may then come back with higher offers

I send a counter offer [eg pound off on a low priced item]

Varies. Some things I just want rid of. Other things I'd like what I paid for it, if it is new/in demand. I accepted a low offer on some old shoes of DDs yesterday, because they had been on for ages, and i'd had no other offers. The buyer may have paid a couple of £ more had I rejected her offer, but I cba quibbling over that for a pair of shoes I was glad to be rid of.

Thank you for your replies. This particular item is for a new with tags Boys Jacket uploaded yesterday. £26 new (Shown on tag in photo) selling for £12.
I'm getting £7 & £8 offers which I have so far ignored. But I feel awful ignoring them. So maybe I should just decline all.

On other items I have either accepted or counter offered. It's all according as you say, how long it's been on there and how much you want rid of it!

If you were the buyer making the offer. Would you prefer that I just press the decline button? Personally it wouldn't bother me if I was ignored, I would just accept it as a no.

I would decline and send a counter offer of £11.

I find it's all about the brand on Vinted. JoJo Maman stuff for example just flies and sells quickly at a decent price. M&S not so much! I'm gradually learning what's worth the effort of selling on there and how much I'll likely get.

From the buyer's perspective if they pay £12 for the coat, plus £1.30 buyers protection fee plus £3.70 postage, you're up to £17 for a coat that might turn up and not fit well or smell funny or whatever. It's annoying but you have to be willing to lose quite a lot on new items.

I always accept, decline or counter. I don’t just ignore offers as the person is expecting a response and all it takes is one click by me. If I decline, they may come back with a higher offer. I think it’s rude to just ignore offers.

I always decline. I have had some bloody weird offers too - like £9.67 for something I had on at a tenner anyway. Bizarre! Also insulting ones like offering 50p for something brand new.

As the buyer in this situation I'd appreciate a counter offer, even a gesture of a pound or so off just to show willing.

I always price such items about 10% higher than I'll eventually accept so I have a discount built in.
