Vinted - not clicking all ok

84 replies

loveawineloveacrisp · 09/08/2026 20:40

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.

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.

When you buy on vinted it tells you the time frame it should be posted in so why comment on how long it's taken someone to post. . If you want something posted quickly do you ask before buying or do you just assume they're posting a few times a week?

I'm afraid I will have upset the seller I have just bought from....

I got the notification it was ready for pick up 10 minutes before the PO closed so no way I could get there in time. I also couldn't pick up on Friday as they randomly decided not to open at all ( happens fairly frequently) and I was working Saturday during the 3 hours they are open. I'm getting chased today but of course it is Sunday...

I will run down in the morning in the hope they are going to be open... This may be my first bad review.

Well I don't leave reviews or click all ok where I've had to wash an item more than once to get the bad fabric conditioner smell off it or where it has an unadvertised defect.

I CBA to negotiate a discount or complain, but if they have sent something that reeks through the packaging or that didn't come with an advertised part, I'm not bothering myself with "just one click" either.

I also never read reviews, "caveat emptor" is all the review I need!

I'm not saying my system is the best - just making the point that we all have our own systems, so you can do whatever you want but you can't expect people to follow the set of rules you made up.

it's common decency, not 'rules"

You have the item, the seller should have their money.

Vinted holding onto the cash is an incentive to buy and not being conned.
It's such an entitled mindset to think they can wait for their cash.

I have had a couple of items posted the day AFTER the "deadline" from Vinted. I thought the transaction would have been cancelled to be honest, but it looks like if you send just after the limit, you get away with it.

If people take ages to post, with no communication, why shouldn't I tell others that it took ages to be sent? It's factual.
I always say and thank when it's been sent promptly too. That's what reviews are for.

loveawineloveacrisp · 10/08/2026 06:09

Some more info. I posted the next day, and it's £40 so not just a tenner or a fiver. But anyhow, I will leave for auto feedback.

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.

Buyers do not get automatic feedback, they only get feedback if a seller leaves some for them, sellers are the only ones who get automatic feedback. @loveawineloveacrisp

I am a buyer only on vinted and it is really annoying when sellers do not leave feedback after I have opened as soon as the parcel arrives, clicked it is okay and left feedback, it would be nice if they could do the same.

I also don't understand sellers who just respond on the feedback I have left them but do not leave me any, that I find really rude as it is only on their feedback page that appears.

loveawineloveacrisp · 10/08/2026 06:32

Ah I didn't know that @stopringingme. They won't get any feedback then.

Oh I didn’t realise this! Well I leave feedback on the buyers page if they pay quickly or leave me positive feedback. I just don’t bother if they don’t bother.

bugalugs45 · 10/08/2026 07:34

I never leave a bad review , I just don’t leave any review. They only get feedback from me if they do so first ( if I’m the seller ) .

BIossomtoes · 10/08/2026 07:45

Does anyone buying on Vinted really care if a seller leaves feedback? I certainly don’t, nobody’s going to turn down my money, are they? Feedback only really matters if you’re selling.

Marroon · 10/08/2026 07:46

“This buyer operated within Vinted’s very clear terms and conditions. 1 star”

KatharinaRosalie · 10/08/2026 08:06

Does anyone buying on Vinted really care if a seller leaves feedback?

I would only check it if I sell something expensive, and if there are negative comments, would be more careful so I don't get scammed - film the packing and so on.

Sartre · 10/08/2026 08:11

If you leave a bad review they can leave one back so no point. I’ve been tempted to do the same because I agree that it’s irritating, ditto buyers who fail to collect. You’re selling because you need money obviously but it’s such a slow process even when you post same day and it’s delivered quickly. Some wait till the eleventh hour to collect, then don’t click the ok button so you’re waiting over a week even if it was delivered within 2-3 days.

TofuTuesday · 10/08/2026 08:22

I only sell on Vinted but I always leave positive feedback for buyers , I thought people liked it?

It’s nice to be told you’re a lovely buyer but not important.

BeachHairForLife · 10/08/2026 08:38

From my point of view, I do it straight away because it seems unfair for someone to wait for their money if I'm happy but I have a neighbour who buys so many kids things from there (I am her unofficial post office) that she only gets in touch if there's a problem. Maybe it's something like that?

Ok, I thought you meant they were just sending towards the end of the stated time. However you would've got a refund plus the item if they sent it two days after the deadline.

kloderanous · 09/08/2026 20:50

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.

Is this the same OP with the same beef as the other day?

Like poster I quoted, I had no idea about this.

babyproblems · 10/08/2026 11:13

This is definitely unreasonable!! Why would you leave a poor review for this?? Your problem is with the way Vinted works, and how they have designed their app, not the buyer.
If you did this to me, I’d block you from buying from me again. That might not bother you. I am a big seller on vinted Europe with a curated vintage store; I block people if they behave very unreasonably and I would consider this in that category. It also makes other people think you are nuts because they’ll see this feedback. Remember the seller can leave you poor feedback in return and if they say ‘left me negative review because I didn’t click all ok quick enough’ you may find other people block you aswell!

KatharinaRosalie · 10/08/2026 12:42

seems unfair for someone to wait for their money if I'm happy yes fair enough but seller would not know if you have had the chance to check the item. Maybe you picked it up but are not in a position to open and check any time soon, maybe someone else picked it up for you and you can only check tomorrow. Getting a negative review when you did nothing wrong is not fair.

Absolutely, I only mean I do it as soon as I've opened and checked because I've been a seller and it's more the worry of "has something gone wrong" that I got when the buyer didn't do it. It's definitely unreasonable to leave bad reviews over this as a lot of people do judge buyers and sellers on their ratings.

milkhater · 10/08/2026 13:01

Seriously?

What is wrong with people

milkhater · 10/08/2026 13:02

As a seller I don’t even notice how quickly someone clicks on, there are plenty of reasons why they might not be able to do it straightaway.

Beachbeach · 10/08/2026 13:04

This is wild. I never click all okay. I am a busy woman with 4 kids sometimes I don’t open the package of the day I get it

milkhater · 10/08/2026 13:04

I also don’t expect sellers to post something straight away because you know people have lives
