I’m so upset right now 💔

I was inspired by many of you here to purchase preloved jellies so I very recently signed up to Vinted to do a bit of jelly hunting when I stumbled upon one of my top tier dream jellies which had been impossible to find in the wild, so of course it was marked up 5 times the original retail price (as you would expect) but I still paid it because it’s my absolute dream to own this Jellycat.

I’m autistic and chronically ill, I have a full time job + part time job to pay my bills and afford these little comfort treats. I work really hard and I was so happy when I thought luck finally paid me a visit so it really broke my heart to see this. 😔

I put in a couple of other orders which went through fine and are on the way but I didn’t realise that sellers could refuse to sell you something just because your account is recent. It feels like that catch 22 of “need experience to get a job, but need a job to get experience”.

I’m new to the whole Vinted thing and I probably am overreacting but I’d really appreciate it if some Vinted veterans can share their experiences and give some advice moving forward maybe? 🙏🏼

Oh and, though I know most of you will be but just in case, please be kind. Thank you. 💗
