Seems like a common issue but I'm selling stuff on vinted,which basically is because of cost of living and struggling every month.
This month I've made around £150 but annoyingly all buyers chose Royal Mail shipping.
Now with Royal Mail I pay for postage and get that reimbursed once buyer clicks "received"
8 parcels and not one has done this.
All delivered last Thursday.
I sent a friendly "hope all is well with your parcel on Sunday"
Not one reply
Aibu to message asking them to mark as received and explain until they do I don't get paid.

That £150 is very much needed
And nearly £20 is postage out of my pocket

Personally i'd not buy if the delivery options were Evri/Yodel .

Most people on Vinted don’t use RM. From my observations.

Its annoying when you send messages and people don't reply this is the downfall of vinted though it's not just the RM courier. Vinted do this overall ...

Personally I like RM better some of the other options I have never heard of, I don't have a printer and I find it tedious finding whatever option someone has selected to be their preferred courier.

Maybe try not rely on the vinted money just view as if it didn't sell you wouldn't of got any money. Or try depop? I must say I do like depop for this sole reason despite the fees. I also things sell better on Depop.... I find Vinted people don't want to pay a reasonable price even if its brand new with tags.
