Boost
A paid Vinted feature that promotes one listing for 3 or 7 consecutive days, or until it sells. Its price depends on the item price, the duration and the reach.
The reseller glossary
The words of second-hand reselling, defined simply. Each term has its own link, to share or to come back to.
Break-even
The point at which the sales of a purchase bundle have paid back what it cost. After that, every sale is profit.
Bump
Informal term for pushing a listing back up the results, either with a paid Boost or by relisting it.
Bundle
Several items bought together from the same seller, which reduces shipping costs. A seller can set a discount on bundles. For resellers, a bundle is also a batch of items bought in one go — see break-even.
Buyer Protection fee
A mandatory fee paid by the buyer on every Vinted order, added at checkout: usually 5% of the price plus €0.70 in the euro zone. It does not reduce what the seller receives.
Cross-listing
Publishing the same item on several marketplaces at once, and removing it everywhere when it sells.
DAC7
The EU directive that requires platforms to report some sellers to tax authorities. On Vinted, it concerns anyone who makes at least 30 sales or earns more than €2,000 in a calendar year. Being reported does not necessarily mean the sales are taxable.
Draft
A listing created but not published. Publishing a draft yourself is the most cautious way to relist.
Favourite
A buyer saving your listing. A favourite signals interest: sending that buyer a message or an offer is often what triggers the sale.
Final offer
The lowest price you will accept in a negotiation. Set it from your purchase price and target margin, never below your break-even.
Margin
What you keep from a sale, as an amount or as a percentage of the selling price, once the purchase price and costs are deducted. Try the fee and margin calculator.
Offer and counter-offer
A price proposed by a buyer below the listed price, and the seller’s answer at another price. An offer strategy sets in advance what you accept, refuse or counter.
Repost / relist
Deleting a listing and publishing it again as a new one, to bring it back to the top of search results. On Vinted a relist costs nothing, unlike a Boost. Revendor automates it: see automatic relisting.
Return on purchase (ROI)
Net profit divided by the purchase cost. An item bought €5 and sold with €15 profit has a 300% return.
Shipping label
The prepaid label Vinted emails to the seller once an item is sold. Shipping is paid by the buyer; the seller has 5 working days to send the parcel, after which the order is cancelled.
SKU
A unique reference number for an item, which links the listing online to the physical object in your storage.
Sourcing
Finding items to resell: charity shops, car boot sales, clearance, bundles bought from other sellers.
Time to sell
The number of days between putting an item online and selling it. Different from days in stock, which count from the purchase.
Vinted Pro
The Vinted offer for professional sellers. It is free for the seller; buyers of Pro items pay a Buyer Protection Pro fee.
Wardrobe Spotlight
A paid Vinted feature that promotes several listings of a wardrobe for 7 consecutive days. It requires at least 5 items online.
