Return shipping costs must be paid by the buyer!

Hello - You are contacting us to ask for our opinion.

You say:
« The color specified as light blue is actually a deep and striking turquoise. »

« …asking if there were gathers at the top of the sleeves because there was a fold »"
« Immediately, dare to tell me that I am complicated, to no longer buy from her following my enumeration of what did not correspond, she tells me that she is blocking my profile. »"

Poor seller, all this for 1 euro. My heart goes out to her.
Why don’t you go to the store?
Can you give me your user ID so that I can block you too.

Or a little obsessive :grin:
It depends if you want to keep the book afterwards and put it on your bookshelf or resell it or put it in a bookdrop..
For Momox, they indicate the condition of the book,
Like; new, very good or good, because indeed there are no photos of the book you want to buy, just the image of the book. In any case, the indications are respected :+1:
And the only cost is €1.99 for shipping.
On Vinted there are all sorts of people.. it’s a lottery!
Fortunately, there are still some kind and benevolent people.

For sometimes buying from Momox, yes, in general, the indications are respected, after it’s up to each person to put what they want behind the notion of « good condition » versus « very good condition ». Or should we consider that a « press copy » stamp — very common with Momox — degrades the item from « like new » to « very good condition »?

On the other hand, their packaging is minimal, just a bubble envelope, often too large. I have several times observed damage during transport.

I have noticed a whole game of deception for returns. They are professionals and should cover return shipping on most platforms. However, Momox first sends a « return slip » that only contains their address, hoping the customer will pay for shipping. Only if we insist do we actually get a prepaid label… They try to pull a fast one, and I imagine it works most of the time.

Wait @mlamiche :joy: .. what if she even asked for a price for the 1€ t-shirt… :joy: :joy: maybe for 30 cents… like buyers who ask dozens of questions and then ask you for a price at 1/3 of the price…

Be careful… we’re talking about a « scammer » for a 1€ t-shirt …
I think it should also have been washed and ironed… yes, otherwise she’s a « dirty scammer » …
:joy: :joy: :joy:

it’s really the kind of story that comforts me in the idea of never getting into fashion :sweat_smile:

Hi - I think Vinted shouldn’t allow items to be listed for €1 in the clothing category. What can you expect for €1? As a seller, it doesn’t even cover the tape, ink, paper for the label, and the trip to the drop-off point.

Hello,
I’m seeing more and more unpleasant and disrespectful responses towards some new users who don’t share the same opinion/viewpoint as a seller and/or buyer.

I ask everyone, please, to remain respectful and moderate your words. You are in a public space where tolerance is essential

Thank you in advance.

Someone is coming here to complain, so it’s normal to tell them what we think of this whole circus for a one-euro item.

Yes, but there’s the manner :slight_smile:
No problem with your interventions @mlamiche but the mockery that followed was unnecessary. Thanks everyone for your efforts :folded_hands:

You cannot have the advantages without the disadvantages of mail order. When you are demanding about quality, color, etc., it’s better to go to the store. If you don’t have the means, well, you deal with it and are less demanding. The seller is not at fault.

Need a bit of common sense in life.

and it’s stated in Vinted’s General Terms and Conditions, a second-hand item must be usable but is not « perfect »:

especially on these shades of light blue/turquoise, my wife and I have wasted time debating whether it’s blue or green :sweat_smile:

At the store I work with a bit, we have a color that’s heavily used on musical instruments: Surf Green. Well, despite it being labeled green, this color is an eternal debate. In fact, in commercial photos, the green is quite obvious but in reality it’s more debatable depending on the lighting:

This is the same guitar, in the same ad, and just from the angle of the photo the shade differs:

and he is right, it is a color that was used in the United States on cars and that was adopted for guitars where Surf Green is more commonly used as the name

haha, you’re going to give us a headache there. It also does that on some shades of red/orange, of yellow.

I had even gone so far as to buy a RAL color chart with 1680 colors, even with that, it wasn’t right, so I put the closest color code, what a waste of time. I would have tried everything, in vain haha

Green, blue, green, mixed!
