Why won’t (some) Vinted buyers press the “everything is ok” button?!

I have spent the last few weeks selling a huge amount of things on Vinted, and at least half the buyers have not bothered confirming everything is ok. I know Vinted automatically assumes it is ok after 2 days then the funds are released, but surely it’s just good manners not to make the seller wait. Especially if you have asked them to post it quickly if you need an item for World Book Day! I always send within max 48 hours. If I am bothering to sell lots of things for £1 or £2 each then it’s reasonable to assume I want/need that money asap. Interested to hear what others think.

Thanks again for all the replies, covering both “sides!” It’s interesting to see how opinions vary on whether it’s rude or not to leave sellers waiting an extra 2 days for their money.

Just to confirm - this is a bug-bear or pet-hate and not something I’ve been frothing about 😁. I have never pestered buyers about it, nor pestered sellers to dispatch items quickly. I still rather like Vinted and will continue to use it!
