    I had an item sent through Evri and got an email saying it had been delivered. I checked the tracking and it said it had been delivered safely to a neighbour. Problem is I didn’t know which neighbour , no note left or anything , luckily 3 days later someone brought it round . That would have been too late if it was a scam (luckily it wasn’t ) , but 48 hours seems a pretty tight window .

    I was tempted to sell on vinted but what if the buyer just lies and say they didn’t get the item or say there was a problem so they get their money back.

    Glad you got your money back! Please can I get your advice?... I'm completely new to Vinted and bought a couple of items from different sellers - I want to say it was 3 days ago... The items still haven't been sent out yet, and Vinted has now begun prompting me with notifications asking if I've received the items. I ignored the prompts and messaged the sellers instead. One replied and is very vague ("I've been busy but I'll try to send out tomorrow...") and the other hasn't responded at all. One is a 5 star account, the other is 4 star rated so I was optimistic but now I'm getting concerned. At what point do I need to try claim refund?... Is it 5 "working" days the seller's have to send out? Will Vinted automatically send an option for me to "refund" - I desperately want the items but also don't want to miss my window for refund due to their negligence. So sad cos I really want the products, I wish they'd just send them to me 😭 Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lisa.

    My wife had a opposite experience. Someone bought 4 books from her. Yesterday she received a message that 2 books was missing. 100% everything has been posted. Now the question is whatever buyer is trying to scam her or the books were stolen during the way to the customer?

    I think I've picked up on a scam with lego daily bugle set 76178. Today on Vinted I suspiciously noticed the same images used to the one I purchased few days ago. Wasn't quick enough to take photos for evidence in time. Either someone else reported them or someone sadly bought the item. The item I got will be here in a few days but I noticed like you they have been blocked now by Vinted and I cannot see the item page and images. I'll look for invoices in the box if they ordered from another retailer but like you I'm expecting the stick lol. Definitely will be recording the delivery and opening for evidence. Thanks for your vid

    Always do store delivery. If they have no reviews, look into the listing. If they only have other expensive listings don't buy off them [Its most likely a ban]

    Another good tip is be sure you only buy from accounts with history and feedback and always remember ‘if it looks too good to be true…!’

    I’ve been scammed as a seller. I sold a pair of trainers. My buyer chose inpost as the courier. The item they received was a pair of jeans? The tracking information on the box is completely different. I’m constantly chasing vinted who are still looking into this with inpost. Any advice would be amazing. The buyer is awaiting a refund and I’m awaiting £150 for the lost/misplaced/stolen goods 🥺

      With inpost parcels get mixed up one reasons why I won’t use them tbh I think the buyer will have contact vinted about that hopefully you get your compensation and the buyer gets a refund.
