People with unwanted books, clothes or toys are being encouraged to sell on Vinted to earn some extra cash
What you need to know about selling items on Vinted and how to earn more money on the platform
- To maximize visibility, you should list items during at peak times such as evenings and weekends, this is known as ‘the golden window ‘. Since most people are busy with work or college during the week, listing at these peak times increases the likelihood of a quick sale.
- It is wise to price your items with some “wiggle room” factored in for negotiation. Buyers commonly send offers for a slightly lower price, and this strategy allows you to accept an offer while still making a satisfactory profit.
- Make sure you have the bundle deals feature turned on in your seller settings. This encourages buyers to purchase multiple items from you simultaneously, which is an easy way to significantly increase your total sales.
- Always take your product photos in natural light to accurately represent the item’s condition and colour. Ensure you capture every angle of the item so the potential buyer can clearly see exactly what they are purchasing.
- You must be completely honest about any flaws or defects in the item by highlighting them clearly in the description box. Full disclosure builds trust with buyers and prevents disappointment or issues after the sale is complete.
- Before doing a parcel run, send a message to users who have favourited items that haven’t sold yet. This message can offer quick shipping, creating a sense of urgency that often secures last-minute sales with minimal effort.
