Vinted - not clicking all ok

[loveawineloveacrisp]

If a buyer doesn't confirm all ok and waits for it to default so that you have to wait for their payment, is it unreasonable to leave a bad review? I posted next day as well.

Yes it is unreasonable to leave a bad review

Yes, it’s unreasonable.

Why is it unreasonable?

Because they haven’t done anything wrong.

If the item is shown as delivered you only have to wait 2/3 days and vinted automatically releases the money I believe ?

I was speaking to a seller about this. I don’t think forcing people to wait for a payment over simple purchase admin is reasonable actually, do the decent thing it’s one click.

This.

I buy a lot from vinted, and always aim to hit OK quickly, but there are 2 times recently where I didn't as the items were not as described and so it didn't feel quite right. Don't have the energy and it's not worth it to try and get a return. In the past I have been called a B for just saying in feedback that the size listed was incorrect and therefore didn't fit at all, so I don't like giving negative feedback where it's due either!

Not everyone opens their packages as soon as they get them though and not everyone actually realises money isn’t released until they click it: the time limit is reached.

Plenty of buyers, myself included, were completely unaware of this. Hence not realising it was a thing until reading on MN recently.

Be aware these people might not even know you won't get paid.

@FilmsandBooks True. I had no idea until she told me but she was really clear she was relying on the money, so now I open immediately if I can

Yeah @kloderanous I only know because this seller was extremely chatty and was explaining her experiences on Vinted

There was a big thread about this recently.

I always hit ‘everything is ok’ as soon as I’ve checked the item and get annoyed when buyers don’t, but even then you would be very unreasonable to leave a bad review.

I have started to say in the review when items are not sent quickly, and when buyers don't accept the transaction quickly. It's factual, they don't want the sellers to have the money quickly, they should own it.

vinted gives customers 2 days so I don’t think you can leave a bad review for it. I just see it as a bonus if they click it’s okay and release the funds earlier

I hardly ever click it. I get the reminder but it’s not a direct link to the button.

I’ve nought loads on Vinted before I started selling and only then realised you don’t get payment until the buyer has confirmed everything is OK.

Given it is complete pot-luck when stuff sells on Vinted, I think it is a bit unreasonable to be thinking of it as dependable cashflow.

I usually click everything is ok straight away. This week I ordered something and it arrived filthy - make up round the collar, grimy cuffs, smelled unwashed. Packaging closed with staples rather than tape so really lucky it didn't snag the item (a knitted jumper!). And i order a lot from vinted and this is the first time I'd really say something was that dirty when I received it. I messaged the seller and she never responded even with a short apology. It's not worth the bother of a fight. But I wasn't going to mark it as ok when it really wasn't. I never even gave her a bad review because I don't want to risk a bad review back so I would be furious if she gave me a bad review following that experience.

It seems a bit spiteful to me.

Im often not home when they are delivered, dont want to click everything is ok without seeing it, that way if I manage to open it in time I still have time to check it. Its only 2 days to wait, its not like its 2 weeks

I've messaged to ask if all ok and they've been online and ignored the message.

They don't owe you to click before the deadline.

Sometimes I'm not home to receive the order, like I'm working away or on holiday, so I can't click all okay as I haven't seen the item yet 🤷. It's unreasonable to leave poor feedback for that.

I sell too and don't mind waiting for the transaction to clear, I'd never harass someone with messages asking them to click all okay, that's just rude imo. Give people a minute, vinted admin might not be top of the priority list.

I always click as soon as I’ve checked item. I’m not always there when it’s delivered. If it gets delivered and I’m away for two days, how can I click all ok?

I always post immediately but would never give a bad review for this.

If someone clicks “all ok” quickly I leave them a good review. If they don’t I just don’t bother with a review and let them receive automatic feedback. I’d only leave a bad review if there was an actual issue.
