Thinking of trying vinted

I am considering starting to use this but their website information is rather vague. Please can somebody help with a few questions.

  1. Is this mobile app only? Or can accounts be set up using a desktop pc? I try not to have any banking details on my phone

  2. What protection is there for sellers? It seems to say you get paid when the buyer confirms everything is okay.

  3. Do they ask for all kinds of ID when setting up an account?

Also I read about click and collect of Evri. Can I disable these options and only allow Royal Mail for postage?

I don't know the answer to 1 or 2 - never had an issue yet. They confirm it's ok when received and you get paid. One time I sent the wrong size and we resolved it easily!
Don't think they ask for ID.

As postage, you can disable whichever you choose. I personally disable Royal Mail as I like being able to pop the item in the In-Post or Evri locker/shop, better than faffing at the post office. I also prefer not to have Royal Mail delivery as they refuse to leave it if you are out and the collection office is only open when I'm at work.

Very easy to use.. don't need the app ( but it's easier) l buy and sell.
You can tick whichever postal service you want.
Some you nerd a printer.
I only use the Post office because Evri etc is always getting lost.
You get paid into your vinted account once the buyer has recived the item and ticked everything is okay.. you can withdraw the money into your bank account or use it to buy. Honestly it's easier than Ebay

Thanks for the guidance so far. Do they ask for any ID? I am never keen on emailing this.
