A practical seller guide for Vinted, Depop and marketplace parcels: prepaid labels, printing, scans, tracking and avoiding out-of-pocket postage mistakes.
Vinted integrated shipping uses a prepaid label generated after the buyer checks out. The seller must use the selected delivery method rather than buying a different service independently.
Vinted lists An Post prepaid labels for supported Ireland routes
The buyer normally pays for the platform shipping option at checkout
Keep the tracking scan and proof of drop-off until the order is accepted
Printing and no-printer options
Some labels need to be printed at home and attached to the parcel. Where a carrier offers a digital or post-office print option, bring the code or confirmation and check that the parcel is scanned before you leave.
Before listing an item
Measure the packed item, not just the item itself. A jacket, boots or a bundle can move from packet to parcel pricing once packaging is added.
Weigh packed parcels
Check maximum dimensions
Photograph the packed item and label for disputes
When Vinted labels are not enough
For oversized, high-value or awkward items, compare tracked courier options and An Post Registered or Express services before agreeing a sale. Do not promise postage you cannot buy or drop off locally.
