Sending offers to potential buyers on Vinted is such a handy way to turn interest into actual sales. When someone favourites your item, you can swoop in with a little discount to tempt them into checking out. Used well, this can boost your sell-through rate, clear stock faster, and even encourage repeat buyers. Just to be clear, this guide is all about sellers sending offers to buyers, not the other way around. Vinted is gaining popularity as people move towards buying more sustainable fashion, making it a great time to get selling.

How Do Offers on Vinted Work?

When someone favourites your item, you’re able to send them a reduced price. It pops up on their notifications, and they can accept it, decline it, or ignore it completely. If they go ahead with your offer, the sale goes through at that price and you post the item as normal. You’re in control of the discount, and the best results usually come from a small but thoughtful reduction sent at the right moment.

Step-By-Step: How To Send an Offer on Vinted

To send offers on Vinted using the app just follow these simple steps – or scroll lower to learn how to send offers in bulk. My friend Stacey in the Sticks offered to let me send her an offer to show you how it is done.

Navigate to your inbox and go to notifications to see who has liked your item.

Click on the notification to open it up and you will see this screen.

Click on ‘Make An offer’ and then you will be sent to the offer page where you can choose your offer and then send it.

Your offer has now been sent. You can follow this up with a message too.

Is It Worth Sending Offers on Vinted?

Definitely. Sending offers is a brilliant way to give your listings a gentle push, especially for items that already have eyes on them. Not everyone will bite, and that’s okay, but you’ll almost always get more sales by being proactive rather than waiting for buyers to make the first move.

A lot of sellers find that offers work best when sent soon after the item is favourited, or at busy browsing times like weekday evenings or Sundays.

What Happens If Someone Makes an Offer on Vinted?

If a buyer sends you an offer first, you can accept, decline, or send a counter-offer. Accepting means the sale goes ahead at that price. Declining ends the chat. A counter-offer keeps the door open for negotiation.

You can also add a friendly message with your counter. For example, if your item is up for £15 and someone offers £10, you could counter with £12.50 and include a quick note like “Shall we meet in the middle?”. It keeps things warm and often leads to a sale.

How Much Is a Reasonable Offer on Vinted?

Sellers often go for somewhere between 5% and 20% off. Too tiny and it doesn’t feel worth it. Too much and you risk losing profit. The sweet spot depends on:
• Item value
• Brand popularity
• How long it’s been listed
• How similar items are selling right now

If you sell regularly, it’s worth experimenting to see what works best for your audience.

For me, I’ve found that 15% is that magic number, so when I list items I price them with this discount in mind.

Can You Take Back an Offer on Vinted?

Unlike eBay, Vinted offers don’t expire. That means if you send a cheeky 30% off offer because you’re already heading out to the parcel shop or need quick cash, a buyer could still take you up on it weeks later.

If you no longer want that offer floating around, you’ve got two options:
• Send a higher offer (not ideal, as it can put the buyer off)
• Relist the item so previous offers disappear

Can a Seller Make an Offer to a Buyer on Vinted?

Yes, and that’s exactly what this feature is for. You don’t have to wait for buyers to approach you. As soon as someone shows interest by favouriting your listing, you’re able to send a discounted offer.

How Long Do Vinted Offers Last?

There’s no time limit – they don’t expire. Once an offer is sent, it stays available until you remove it by relisting the item.

Sending Bulk Offers: Save Time and Increase Sales

If your wardrobe gets a lot of favourites, sending offers one by one can take ages. Bulk-offer tools can work wonders and save you time.

Send bulk offers on Vinted with DOTB

DOTB is my personal favourite. Once someone favourites an item, it sends a personalised message plus a discount. You choose whether to offer a set amount off (like £1) or a percentage (for example 15%). That mix of a friendly message and a good discount has really boosted my sales and opens the door for buyers to message with questions. It can lead to a flurry of sales in one go.

The only small downside is that DOTB needs to run in your web browser, so you’ll need to have your computer on for it to work.

SellerAider

SellerAider also gives you Vinted automation tools, including bulk offers and relisting. Lots of sellers use it to stay consistent without spending hours manually updating listings. The drawback is that it can sometimes stall when sending offers, and you need to set it up manually. At the moment you can’t send a message with the offer either, and personally I find adding a message makes a real difference.

Sending offers on Vinted is such an easy way to give your shop a boost. It helps convert interest into sales, clear space, and keep things ticking along nicely. Once your screenshots are in place, this guide will walk sellers through the process step by step.
