Love this, but can’t be bothered with the hassle of buying it in from Japan & the lottery that is UK customs.

Those hickory stripe pop up in eBay every now and again 
Slightly off topic a little, but does anyone buy and sell on Vinted? Just sold an old pair of Carhartt jeans (Usually love their WiP stuff but these were horrendous).
So I have to send the goods before I get paid. Payment gets released once the buyer confirms receipt. Seems an odd business model. Anyone able to provide some reassurances? What’s stopping someone saying they never got the goods?
I like the look of the utility jacket but suspect the fabric will be shit. As you’d expect for the price I suppose.
Proper EG stuff is silly money nowadays.
I’ve found the quality mixed over past seasons on the EG collaboration, might be worth a punt?
Most EG items I pick up from Grailed or eBay, but some stuff does get knocked down 50% or more on LNCC and Bureau.
Mrs CovKid73 has sold a fair bit on there without a problem and normally uses the lockers (InPost amongst others) so you get notified when stuff has been collected etc. Think this method is also cheaper. The not received scenario could be a problem if you deliver straight to an address though but get the impression most sellers use the locker method.
Same with eBay these days.
I use the Evri service on Vinted, never had an issue…
Thanks guys. I’ll look into the lockers and Evri options.
Oh blimey. Really? I sell on there too. Time for a rethink.
Sold loads of bits on there, never had an issue with any sale. You just have to wait for the item to be received by the buyer and then the payment is released to you - only slight annoyance is when the buyer doesn’t mark the item as received straight away, but this doesn’t happen often. If you’re using Evri/InPost to send as I do, the tracking is built into the Vinted app, so even if the buyer never marks the item as received they’ll still release the money to you after 2 or 3 days when the tracking shows it has been received, if that makes sense!
Had a few issues as a buyer however… Multiple instances of sellers somehow sending me the wrong item. Usually they respond straight away and pay for the return themselves and the refund is quick, however I’ve had a couple of people completely ghost me, and Vinted won’t do anything about it unless the seller responds. Got one ongoing at the minute where I was sent the wrong thing 6 weeks ago and the seller has disappeared off the face of the planet. Vinted want me to pay the postage (£3) to return it to the seller in order to get a refund of the £10 I paid…
It’s all a bit dull.
Ah thanks for that. Seems that Evri / InPost is the way to go then.
Eek - Hope you get it resolved. I hadn’t thought about buying anything on there until recently. There are some absolute bargs to be had!
My thoughts exactly - distinctly underwhelming
I guess high street retailers aren’t taking so many risks nowadays.
I think it’s decent for the price point and ordered the bomber jacket, it may go back.
Obviously the extensive EG collection does range from the quite ‘fruity’ to the more utilitarian, this definitely following the latter.
Some nice new stuff from helas… I like the puff tuff
wasn’t a member at the time, but REALLY want one of those old TP ‘Good Good Feeling’ sweatshirts
