I'm a full-time Vinted reseller who has earned £18,000 from flogging cheap clothes online - here are my top tips on how to become successful on the platform
A secondhand online clothes seller who has made thousands of pounds on Vinted has revealed her top tips for sales success.
Maisie, who is from Yorkshire, searches cat boot sales, charity shops and online pre-loved websites for cheaply-priced garments with a high resale value.
Although it started off as a side hustle, Maisie made reselling her full time career last year after earning £18,000 from flogging clothes.
Now, she has helped others by telling them how they too can make a wage from the app - and according to her, it's very simple.
Maisie said: 'I absolutely love buying on Vinted to resell on Vinted. It's so easy and it just goes to show the difference that a good quality picture with good lighting and a good background can honestly make.'
She says that you should always list similar clothes sizes at the same time on Vinted, as people may browse your page and find other items that they like, resulting in more sales.
'They're more likely to get their money's worth by buying a bundle from you so it will boost your sales and your profit at the same time,' Maisie added.
'You're only having to ship out one parcel and the buyer is only having to pay one lot of postage and fees.'
Masie has made £18,000 from selling on Vinted so far and has now made reselling her main job
Maisie said wannabe sellers also have to be careful about how they draft listings on Vinted - as sometimes a post can appear as though it was shared earlier than it was.
In another clip, the reselling expert explained: 'If you draft something and then a week later you decide to hit live and publish it, it won't show as a new listing. It will show when you drafted it, which was a week ago.
'It will come up older in the listings, it won't show up at the top, it will show up as being a week old which will affect how people are looking at your listings because a lot of people will search for newest first.'
Recently, Maisie revealed how she sold a dress for more than four times what she paid for it.
She purchased a WoolOvers boho linen dress for just £3.30 on Vinted as part of a bundle from a seller.
Maisie then ended up reselling it on eBay for a whopping £20.46.
She also has her own system so she can find the items she has listed quickly and get them shipped off to the buyer
'If you're not keen on getting out to car boots or charity shops or you just don't have the time, get on Vinted,' she said.
'Then, get this stuff delivered to your door, take better photographs, and list it back on Vinted!'
This video racked up many comments from other impressed Vinted sellers who praised Maisie on her sales success.
One wrote: 'Amazing flip!! I've just started reselling too!! Sometimes it is just a case of taking better photos too!!'
Another said: 'That's amazing,' to which Maisie responded: 'Magic of photography eh!'
Many other Vinted sellers have praised Maisie for sharing her clever tips and tricks on how to sell clothes for a profit
A third penned: 'Thank you! I love watching your videos.'
She also has her own system so she can find the items she has listed quickly and get them shipped off to the buyer.
In another video, Maisie explained how she had bought clear plastic bags and used stickers to number each one.
She then puts an item into a bag with a designated number once she has listed it and puts the number in her post, so it reminds her which bag it is in.
'It's going to make life so much easier and it is so satisfying coming in and doing ten listings and then putting them into bags,' she said.
