Quick question about a Vinted issue

Bought something on Vinted. They didn’t meet the posting deadline so they requested an extension. I agreed but said I needed it by a certain date as I am going away. The extension deadline passed yesterday and they still haven’t sent it. Vinted hasn’t automatically cancelled and issued me a refund so I have requested to cancel it myself as I am going away so if they decided to send later today it would be returned to them and I would lose out.
This request has gone to the seller to agree to, which feels unfair. How long do I have to wait for them to agree? They have ignored three messages despite being online multiple times a day. I want to purchase an alternative but don’t want to do so until this is cleared up as I don’t want to end up with two if they decide to send it anyway! Not that I would be able to pick it up as I will be away by the time it arrives.

Vinted is great but the issues are frustrating. I am a good buyer and seller, always respond, post asap etc, I hate when people behave like this.

Vinted is messy and everyone just does their own thing on there. Zero professionalism.
Recommend switching to eBay instead
