Vinted bundle postage in Ireland

Vinted lets you add up to 100 items to one bundle order, but heavy or bulky items need to be bought one at a time. If the autoselected size for a bundle is wrong, you can change it at the drop-off point at no extra cost. If you were charged extra for a bigger size, send Vinted the receipt.

How to post a Vinted parcel

How Vinted describes bundle shipping

Vinted says a bundle is several listings bought together from the same seller, and that bundling can help the buyer save on shipping costs. When the buyer presses Buy now, the Vinted fee and the shipping fee are added on top of the bundle price, and every item in the bundle is marked as sold.

  • Standard sellers may offer a discount based on the number of items bought
  • Pro sellers can't offer bundle discounts, but buyers can still save on shipping by bundling
  • Vinted's carrier pages say shipping rates depend on the parcel's size and both the buyer's and seller's locations
  • The buyer sees the total shipping cost at checkout; Vinted does not publish a separate bundle price list

The 100-item cap and heavy or bulky items

Vinted says you can add up to 100 items to one bundle order. Heavy or bulky items are the exception: they need to be bought one at a time, so they can't go into a bundle order.

  • Up to 100 items in one bundle order
  • Heavy or bulky items: bought one at a time
  • Vinted says international bulky orders aren't available between Ireland and France

Wrong autoselected size at drop-off

For a bundle, Vinted autoselects the parcel size. If you arrive at the parcel shop or locker and that size is wrong, Vinted says you can change the parcel size at the drop-off point at no extra cost.

  • At a parcel shop: hand the parcel to the staff as usual and the shipping provider changes the size on its side
  • Check your shipping provider's maximum parcel size limits for your item
  • At a locker: follow the instructions on the locker screen to select another locker size, and don't close the door until asked
  • If a locker compartment is broken or won't open or close, contact the carrier's customer support directly

Charged extra? Claim it back with the receipt

If the actual parcel size is bigger than the autoselected size and you were charged extra for it, Vinted says to contact it from its help page and send the receipt, and it will make sure you receive compensation for that charge. Keep the receipt from the drop-off point until this is settled.

  • Keep the drop-off receipt
  • Use Contact us at the bottom of Vinted's parcel size help page
  • Send Vinted the receipt for the extra charge

Single items work differently

The free size change at drop-off is for bundles. For an individual item, Vinted says that if the selected parcel size exceeds the carrier's maximum weight or dimensions, you or the buyer may be charged extra. If you've already sent the item and paid the extra cost, Vinted won't refund it because it's paid directly to the shipping provider, though you can try to agree something with the buyer.

  • Not sent yet: you can agree with the buyer to cancel, and the buyer can buy again with the correct parcel size or a different carrier
  • Once you have the label, you can't change the carrier or the drop-off location
  • Sending with a different carrier or shipping method cancels the order automatically and refunds the buyer

Pack the bundle to stay in size

Our tip: The cheapest fix is not needing one. Fold every item flat, spread the bundle across the bag rather than stacking it in the middle, and press the air out before sealing so the parcel stays within the size the buyer paid for. Measure the packed parcel against your carrier's limits before you leave home.

  • Fold flat; do not roll
  • Spread the items across the bag
  • Check the packed parcel against the carrier's maximum size
