Vinted: I accepted "buyer's" offer, but they haven't been back to pay

[xsquared]

It's been over 24 hours since they sent me the offer, which I accepted, and they have been online since.

I am happy to wait a bit longer, but if they have changed their minds and just not bothered to respond, does the fact I accepted their offer prevent others from making offers?

No, others can still buy the item.

This is quite common, people change their mind & don’t purchase.

They may not have got the email /. I don’t. It’s better than eBay but not much,

Okay, thanks both. That's helpful to know.

Make sure you haven't got it reserved fir them op.

Bumping this as I'm in the same boat - how would I know if it's reserved? Chat page just says wait for payment and no label generated

Hi French Egg,

I'm the op. When you accept an offer, the buyer gets a notification to say its been accepted and to pay. However, it is not binding and anyone can buy the item as long as its still available.

Only you as the seller can reserve the item for the potential buyer if they haven't paid. I only reserve it for a short time though, and let buyer know that it will be released for sale again after that time if they haven't completed the transaction.

I had 2 offers at the same time the other day. Same price. Accepted both. First to pay got it 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you, I think I thought it was binding on me - in the end they dropped away with no contact and someone else bought it
