Counterfeit goods on Vinted stalemate.

I'd love to know if anyone has experienced a similar situation on Vinted.

At the end of March I purchased a designer item on Vinted, it was lovely but didn't fit so I planned to resell.

Since March life got really complicated so I've been a bit consumed sorting that out.

Uploaded the item last week and Vinted wouldn't approve it because it was "identified by their team as a potential replica item" I believe because I don't have any receipts.

Apparently they missed it when the previous seller sold to me. (also without receipts)
Feels pretty unreasonable that I'm stuck with something I purchased in good faith that can't wear and now can't sell.

Any chance I could take this further?

I'd put it on Ebay.

Sell on eBay?

Snap!
Yes I guess I could do that...
I'm slightly concerned it is a fake now though and the consequences of passing it on to someone else.

That said the quality of the item looks excellent.
