The seller may offer services to improve the visibility of their items on the platform for an additional fee. VINTED is not responsible for monitoring or actively searching for illegal content on the platform.
4 - The buyer agrees to pay for the item, and the seller agrees to transfer ownership of the item.
-The VINTED Buyer Protection applies automatically to every purchase made through the "Buy Now" button.

The VINTED buyer protection policy covers buyers who do not receive their item or if the item is damaged during shipping. If a problem arises, the buyer has 2 days to report the issue to VINTED. If the buyer does not report the issue within that time frame, the transaction will go through and the buyer will not be refunded.
If an item is significantly different than described, the buyer is entitled to a refund. If the item is a counterfeit, the buyer is also entitled to a refund. Otherwise, the buyer is not entitled to a refund.
6 - The gist of these T&C is that the payment for an item will be processed by a third-party payment service, and that the buyer and seller are each responsible for providing accurate information regarding their credit or debit card or other payment method. Additionally, the payment will be held in a trust account by the payment service until the transaction is completed, at which point the funds will be released to the seller. Lastly, these T&C state that the integrated payment system may only be used for transactions involving items on the platform, and not for other products or services.
