In the era in which we live, second-hand buying and selling platforms is the order of the day and in a society so marked by now and fashion, an application is necessary that would serve for those who are always up to date with trends and that this does not pose a problem, neither economic nor physical space, in addition to being able to give a second life to what is no longer used.
The Vinted platform fulfills everything it promises, created in 2008 in Lithuania, for a reason so easy to understand by all the people who have gone through this situation, having to make a move and realize the amount of clothes you have. At first it was a low-profile company that stood out for its entrepreneurship, but little by little it has managed to make a niche for itself in the industry and has left the limits of its country, conquering 12 of the main European markets: Spain, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, the United Kingdom and the world's leading power, the United States. Its evolution has been such that it finds no rival, the Chicfy app seemed like it could overshadow it but in 2013 it surrendered to its rival and decided to join. If you can't beat your enemy, join him, that's what the Spanish company must have thought.
And so, without making noise, it has become one of the essential platforms, both for influencers and for ordinary people, in it you will sell all the clothes and accessories you want and without commission. Her motto is: sell what you no longer use and make money with it, and it is a motto that has caught on with her audience. It is an application that you can download for free and you find available for Android and iOS. Now the big question users are asking is, Wallapop or Vinted? Clearly the Lithuanian wins right now.
The Vinted community is made up of more than 25 million users from around the world, who are very active and do not hesitate for a second to upload their garments and start managing their sales. Learning to use it is very simple, it is a mixture of the other two applications mentioned above, Wallapop and Chicfy, and the only thing you have to know is that the company has always ensured that transactions are totally secure and you do not run any risk of cheated.
Its main advantage will be found in the commissions, the sellers will have 0%, so they are assumed by the buyers in what is called the "buyer protection fee", this means 5% of the price of the item that wants to buy more a flat rate of € 0.70.
To start using it, you will only have to download it and create a profile, you will be able to start exploring what others have for sale and put everything you want in your public showcase. Everything will depend on whether you want to buy or sell.
If what you want is to get money through your clothes, the first thing you have to do is configure your account with the payment method you want to use, add your clothes and answer all the offers that are thrown at you. One very important thing is to add attractive photos of the products, with this you will attract the attention of other users and also show that they are in perfect condition.
Those people interested in any of your items will send you offers that may be equal to or lower than the initial one that you indicated, accept or reject it is up to you, but you always have to remember that if you commit to a specific value, you will have to sell it to that price. Once the deal is accepted, the buyer pays Vinted and it is from the application itself that confirms the payment and informs you that you can now send it everything it has bought. If the alleged buyer takes more than 3 days to pay the corresponding amount, the sale is canceled and your products are available to other users again.
In the event that what you want is to buy clothes, the process is very similar, with the only difference being the reimbursement of the famous commission, that the shipping costs depend on the method of payment and the volume of the package and above all, when it is receive the package you will have to confirm that everything has arrived correctly and as indicated by the seller. This process is done through the app itself, confirming with an OK button.

Valuations are reciprocal, from consumed to seller and vice versa. Do not be afraid to buy and sell, always haggle the prices making the interaction create a union and have more security, if when the order arrives the item has any damage or does not conform to what the ad said, the company has a policy refund and it is usually the seller who is responsible for paying the return. Dare to use it and start getting an extra with what you no longer wear.
