Negotiating on Vinted: Accept or Decline?

Calculate your floor before you list

Start from the price you paid if the item was bought for resale.
Subtract the commission and any applicable fees.
Add the cost of packaging and time spent.
The result is your floor price: it's not up for negotiation.

The counter-offer that works

Split the difference in thirds, not in half: offer a price closer to yours than to theirs, with a short justification (condition, rarity, original price). Two out of three buyers accept.

Politely declining beats accepting a loss: the item will sell to another buyer.

Negotiating across 50 listings at once

The problem isn't negotiating, it's the volume. Revindo prepares counter-offers based on your floor price and your tone, and you send them yourself.

Frequently asked questions

Should I accept every offer on Vinted?

No. Always accepting encourages very low offers and destroys your margin. Set a floor price and stick to it.

How should I respond to a lowball offer?

With a counter-offer close to your asking price, backed by a short justification. Stay polite; the buyer often comes back.

Can shipping costs be negotiated on Vinted?

The seller doesn't control shipping costs, but they can lower the item's price to compensate.

How long does an offer stay valid?

An offer expires after a few days if it's neither accepted nor declined.
