Shipping costs increase following accepted offer

Hello. I am disgusted by Vinted’s manipulation.
For an item at €12, the shipping cost was €1.98, so a 25% discount (bright pink highlight indicating discount), then I made an offer of €10. Once the offer was accepted by the seller, they increased the shipping cost to €2.88. So they take a piece of the offer. Obviously, it’s not a significant amount, but it’s like sharks profiting from our transactions… it’s their platform, of course, but it’s abusive.

Good evening
Shipping costs do not vary based on purchase price… those shown in the ad are written « starting from » … so €1.98 corresponds to the cheapest carrier’s price… when you make the purchase and choose your shipping method, it may then be different… anyway, maybe I’m wrong, but based on your writing, that’s what I believe :nerd_face:
Good evening

Yes, given the announced prices, you must have chosen Mondial Relay or Shop2Shop, €1.98 is for Vinted Go.
