How much can you earn
selling vintage clothing
on Vinted?
From your first tenner to a steady side income — this is what you can realistically expect when you buy smart and present your items well.
Last updated: May 2026
Vinted is not a lottery. But it is not a money machine that runs by itself either.
In short: with the right branded vintage stock, strong product photos and consistent uploads, Vinted can become a realistic side income — from your first €50 profit to serious monthly revenue.
The question “how much can you earn on Vinted?” gets a thousand different answers online. And they are all partly right — and partly wrong. Because what you earn depends on three things: what you buy, how you present it and how consistent you are.
What we do know: resellers who start with strong branded stock — think Nike, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger — perform better structurally than resellers who thrift randomly. Not because they are luckier. But because they are guessing less.
Vinted has no selling fees for sellers. That means the margin you make from your purchase price almost fully stays with you. That is the real advantage of this platform.In this blog, we show you realistic earnings per phase, which brands perform best, and which beginner mistakes cost the most money.
What can you expect per phase?
Based on real resellers. Not best-case scenarios.
* Estimates are based on average Vinted selling prices and Grade A wholesale stock. Results vary per item, brand, season and listing quality.
From stock purchase to profit in 4 steps
This is what a working resell rhythm looks like — for starters and for resellers who are already active.
Choose a box that matches your phase
Start small if you want to test. Scale up once you have found your rhythm. From a Starter Box from €45 to a Nike Only Box of 20 pieces — there is an entry point for every phase.
Photograph smartly — 10 minutes per item
Daylight, a clean background and the label clearly visible. That is the difference between selling fast and waiting for weeks. Photos are the first thing a buyer sees.
Write a listing that builds trust
Brand + size + condition in the title. Keep the description honest and complete. No questions = no doubts = faster sales. Always look at sold items before pricing — not active listings.
Stay active and upload regularly
Vinted rewards active sellers with more visibility. Upload 3–5 new items per week, even if you still have stock. Consistency is your strongest marketing.
Which brands bring in the most?
Not every brand sells equally fast. These are brands with proven demand on Vinted NL.
Nike
The most searched vintage brand on Vinted. Hoodies and sweaters with a clear logo sell quickly, even outside the season. Strong click value in the feed.
Average selling price: €25–€65Ralph Lauren
Polos and shirts attract a focused buyer. Buyers search by both style and label — giving you more room to price well.
Average selling price: €30–€75Tommy Hilfiger
Widely recognized and widely searched. Works well for resellers who want branded basics with steady demand and little buyer hesitation.
Average selling price: €20–€55Lacoste
Attracts a cleaner, more classic buyer. Less volume than Nike, but stronger margin potential when the presentation is right. Popular in polos and sweaters.
Average selling price: €25–€60* Selling prices are guidelines and can differ per item. The final sale depends on factors such as the brand, condition, size, season, current demand, product photos, title, description and pricing strategy. An item can therefore sell for more or less than the averages shown.

Four mistakes that cost beginners money
You do not have to make the same mistakes as everyone before you.
Pricing based on active listings
Anyone can list something for €80. What matters are the items that actually sold. Always check “sold items” on Vinted — not what others are asking.
One photo on a messy bed
The first photo decides whether someone clicks. A messy background, poor lighting or an unreadable label costs you sales before anyone has even seen your price.
Uploading everything at once, then waiting
Vinted rewards active accounts. Uploading 10 items in one day and then doing nothing is worse than uploading 2 per day over 5 days. Regularity = visibility.
Waiting too long to respond
Buyers on Vinted are impulsive. Sellers who respond quickly to messages and offers sell more. A missed reply is often a missed sale.
