ebay or Vinted for clothes?

Anyone? I used to sell masses of good quality clothes on eBay- Jigsaw, Boden, etc - so have a good feedback.

However, a few clothes I've listed just aren't getting any views.

Vinted- I've had a couple of not so great experiences, where a buyer was chasing for delivery before it was due, then when it did arrive she didn't record that so payment was delayed.

I can only post items R Mail ( live in a village with a PO but no easy access to Evri ) and one reason I stopped with Vinted was this didn't seem to be an option but it's a while back.

Anyone help?

Vinted all the way. I never look on eBay.

Vinted, I wouldn't think to look on Ebay for clothes these days

I've only brought clothes on Vinted for the past year. From a buyers perspective Vinted ends up being much much cheaper, probably not good for the seller though?!

what are the delivery options for vinted now?
I've heard so many negatives- is RM a simple option?

I’ve done both and honestly each has its quirks. eBay’s great for reach and established buyers but fees + competition can sting. Vinted feels easier for casual buyers but, like you, I’ve had hiccups with delivery and delayed payments.
One thing I’ve been wondering though with all the hassle of third-party platforms, has anyone tried setting up their own little Shopify store for clothes? It’s more upfront work but you keep control over pricing, branding and buyers (no random rule changes or fee surprises). Could be a way to build a mini “boutique” online instead of relying on eBay/Vinted.
