How to pack and ship clothes on Vinted

The right parcel size, neat packing and a small thank-you. That way your piece arrives in one piece, your buyer doesn't overpay and you get better reviews.

Short answer

Pick the smallest size it fits neatly into

On Vinted the buyer pays for shipping. You choose the parcel size when you upload, and that decides what the buyer pays. So pick the smallest size your piece fits neatly into. Fold the piece, put it in a bag against rain, use a sturdy box or envelope and stick the label on properly.

Why it matters

Your parcel is your last chance at a good impression

A buyer only really sees your piece when they open the parcel. A creased jumper in a wet envelope feels different from a neatly folded piece with a thank-you card. You'll see that difference in your reviews.

The size matters too. Choosing too big means your buyer pays more for shipping, and that can be the very reason they drop out. Choosing too small causes trouble at drop-off.

Small size that fits, neatly packed, a thank-you inside. That's how you earn those 5 stars.
