us buyers > uk buyers
this past year, vinted linked the uk and us marketplaces . leaving the two able to purchase and ship to one another . just like uk , france , and germany .
any american sellers wanting to get their payout quickly , avoid uk shipping or accounts lol . from california , the process took 2.5 weeks just to arrive to an InPost locker [amazon locker equivalent] . the uk buyer then has 15 DAYS to retreive it before it gets returned back to the seller .
compared to shipping domestically , the buyer has 48hrs from delivery to raise an issue before payout is automatically dispersed
^ this happened to me and i'm STILL waiting on the return process to initiate . i let a uk account buy an item without exchanging any messages . after i spammed her a few times once it delivered she said on the fourth day after it had been sitting in a locker, "Hello, I haven’t received information on how to pick it up"
girl you gotta bsffr rn .
20 days later . you cant even leave a negative review for the buyer because the return process should trigger automatically after [according to crumby vinted support] 21 business days . im tight asf . i make it explicitly clear on my profile there's no uk shipping now
long story short , beware of uk buyers unless you've seen that their account/profile is reasonably active
