Stupid Vinted question

If you pay for something to be delivered within 2-3 days (£6), does the 2-3 days start from when you purchase the item or from when they decide to post it?

Not sure but go into the item in your inbox. Whenever I buy something there’s always a line from Vinted saying the seller has until X date to post it.

I imagine it’s from the posting not purchase date though.

Ah, ok. That does make sense! Thank you.

Whenever I sell stuff on vinted, it tells me, you must post it by X date. It's always more than 2-3 days. Without looking it up, the seller usually has something like 5-7 days to post, I'm always surprised at how long the window is.
If you're paying for 2-3 day delivery, that will be the delivery service timescale. So 2-3 days from when the seller posts it.

If you like something but want it quicky, it's always worth dropping the seller a message before you purchase asking if they'd be able to post it soon. They can let you know if it would be possible. Just don't purchase it, then ask the seller afterwards if they can post it today cos you need it quickly. That's just rude.
