🚨 Selling your own clothes on Vinted? Read this.
If you’ve noticed more stories about Vinted accounts being restricted or banned recently, you’re not imagining it.
Vinted’s moderation seems to be getting increasingly aggressive and genuine items can sometimes get caught up in it too.
So if you’re having a clear-out, a few simple things are worth keeping in mind:
• Make sure your items are genuine
• Take clear photos of the brand labels and item details
• Keep proof of purchase where you have it
• Be accurate with your descriptions
• Don’t list things that aren’t permitted
And if you’re selling branded trainers, bags or other higher-value pieces, I’d be particularly careful.
Vinted is still a great place to clear out your wardrobe, but it’s worth being aware of how much more closely listings are being scrutinised.
Would you know what to do if Vinted suddenly restricted your account?
