A smart seller who has been making money on Vinted has shared crucial tips after she earned £4000 from selling her clothes, it has been reported. TikToker Dassie Andreu (@dassieandreu) shared a video on the social media platform and warned sellers against sending items in a certain packaging.
Vinted is a widely used online marketplace in the UK, allowing users to buy, sell, and exchange second-hand clothing and accessories. It distinguishes itself by ensuring sellers receive 100% of their earnings, as there are no selling fees. The platform streamlines the process by offering prepaid shipping labels, so sellers simply list their items, complete sales, and drop off packages at designated locations.
Buyers cover shipping costs, and purchases are safeguarded through Buyer Protection, guaranteeing refunds if items are lost or not as described.
The experienced Vinted user shared the importance of packaging and how it can impact the overall buying and selling experience.
While sharing a clip of a parcel packed in a plastic bag and covered with brown tape that she recently collected from a seller, she said in the video, “It looks really unprofessional, and I probably wouldn’t buy from this seller again.
“There were even holes in the bag.”
Apart from this, the social media user said that it is crucial for anyone to keep the account active by making regular uploads. She added: “And I mean every couple of days.”
To maximise visibility for your items, Dassie advises using a wide range of keywords in the item description to attract more potential buyers.
She explained in the video: “Don’t just say boy’s jumper, say boy’s blue navy jumper, long sleeves, warm, perfect for the chilly season.”
