Mum who made £2k on Vinted shares the exact amount of photos you need on your listing to make it fly & rake in cash
HAVE you joined Vinted in hopes to boost your bank balance – but haven’t managed to sell anything so far?
Savvy mum and TikToker Ali, who claims to have raked in £1,800 in just one month, has spilled the beans on how to make a fortune on the popular second-hand platform.
The money-smart fashionista, who flogs items ranging from dresses to fabulous tops, explained that there are three things Vinted sellers should always do when putting together a listing.
How many snaps to take?
No listing should be uploaded without any photos showcasing the item – but how many should you be sharing for the best success?
According to Ali, who recently sold a bodysuit for over £30 and a reversible dress for close to £40, sellers should ideally ”share a selection of photos that show your item at different angles”.
In her video, where the savvy mum was trying to make extra cash by selling a gorgeous dress, she was seen uploading four images.
Ali said: ”When uploading an item, make sure to take clear photos.”
Another pro tip to avoid drama with a potential buyer is always to take close-up images of any faults on the item.
Go wild in the description
Once the snaps are up, it’s time to get creative with the description of the item you’re trying to flog, whether that’s clothes, tech or beauty buys.
Here, the Vinted pro, who posts under the username @im.winging.it.too, advised fellow sellers to add as many details in the listing as possible.
”When writing the title, put the size, colour, brand and any extra features. Has it got pockets? Straps?
”In the item description put the condition and describe any faults.
”Also put in there why they should follow you and details of any bundle deals.”
These could include 20% off when buying two items or a whopping 50% off when purchasing five items or more.
Another pro tip that could make your listings fly is making use of hashtags – this, Ali explained, will ”help people find you”.
Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted?
QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted...
- The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it.
- Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017.

How to find the best price?
We all want to make as much money as possible – but according to Ali, from Kent, there are two things to consider when coming up with the best price.
”When pricing, think do you want a quick sale, what would you be happy to sell it for with your bundle discounts?”
‘Made £100’
Since being shared on the popular platform, the clip has racked up over 77k views in just one day.
Hundreds flocked to comments to share their Vinted success stories, with one writing: ”Used it for the first time yesterday and made £100! It’s was sold as soon as I uploaded.”
Another wasn’t having any luck at all, writing: ”My items aren’t getting any views at all.”
”How do people get rid of their non clothes items . I have toys books some other stuff and it’s hard to sell it,” someone else was looking for more tips.

Ruben Amorim’s brutal hammerings are winning over Man Utd fans and media… but he’s playing a dangerous game with stars
AFTER the 3-1 home defeat by Brighton ten days ago, Ruben Amorim labelled his side “the worst team maybe in the history of Manchester United”.
Having accidentally trashed a TV in the dressing room minutes earlier, he then told the assembled press pack: “I know you want headlines… here you go, your headlines.”
At Craven Cottage on Sunday, Amorim decided to give us more headlines — and he upped the ante substantially.
Criticising Marcus Rashford’s workrate in training would have provided a decent-enough soundbite.
But by claiming he would rather select his 63-YEAR-OLD goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital than a player who didn’t show full commitment, Amorim conjured the most inflammatory managerial quote of the season.
Given that Vital last played a quarter of a century ago for the third-tier Portuguese club Esposende, we can assume Amorim wasn’t being literal and knew full well that he was creating another firestorm.
United are England’s highest-profile club and Rashford — who hasn’t played since December 12 — is one of their biggest names. Yet here was his manager openly mocking him with a quote which bordered on cruelty.
This is a high-risk strategy. It’s often said, and is largely true, that Sir Alex Ferguson didn’t publicly criticise his own players, although he did ruthlessly bomb out several of his best.
Amorim’s predecessor Erik ten Hag binned Cristiano Ronaldo early in his reign, then froze out Jadon Sancho.
And while these moves were widely seen as an admirable attempt to root out ‘bad apples’ and change a rotten culture, Ten Hag never possessed the force of personality to make this approach a long-term success.
CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS
Many United players felt his ‘hardman routine’ was an unconvincing act. With Amorim, it seems more authentic. The Portuguese possesses charisma and won’t be condemned as a fake by his players.
Yet as elite players grow ever less accustomed to being called out, Amorim’s words will have shocked the dressing room. The collective criticism after the Brighton defeat was damning but this stinging rebuke of Rashford was personal.
Rashford’s reputation has plummeted on and off the field over 18 months but he retains many friends among United’s squad — as did 24-year-old Sancho when Ten Hag went for him.
Amorim blamed Rashford’s PR advisors when he gave a surprising interview six weeks ago, stating he was “ready for a new challenge” away from Old Trafford.
And the forward is currently pursuing a loan move to Barcelona, yet may be priced out of that, even though he is apparently willing to take a hefty cut to his £325,000 weekly pay packet.
A permanent summer transfer now seems highly likely and would suit both Rashford, 27, and Amorim, although the manager’s public criticism will not do wonders for the Red Devils’ asking price.
Criticising Marcus Rashford’s workrate in training would have provided a decent-enough soundbite, but Amorim conjured the most inflammatory managerial quote of the season.
Dave Kidd
According to those who know him in Portugal, Amorim doesn’t genuinely relish media duties in the manner of his compatriot Jose Mourinho.
He does, though, fully understand how to use the media to influence the narrative around himself and his club.
And Amorim recognises he is currently in a position of personal strength. United are terrible.
They were terrible before Amorim arrived, they were terrible against Brighton and they were terrible in the 1-0 victory over Fulham, which was probably the most terrible game of Premier League football this season.
And yet while part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe was slaughtered from the away end on Sunday, Amorim’s name rang out in songs of praise, because United’s hardcore supporters realise he represents the club’s best hope.
If fans believe they have been coughing up hard-earned money to watch a bloke on a £17million salary who isn’t showing full dedication, they will fully appreciate the manager berating him.
And let’s put our cards on the table here — in the written media, we love juicy post-match quotes from managers.
There are fewer and fewer quotable bosses in the Premier League, with Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham a rare exception.
In such a vacuum, less entertaining quotes are occasionally ‘revved up’ a little — my personal favourite being an article which started with the words Claude Puel last night roared…
Even though former Southampton and Leicester boss Puel never spoke above a whisper and was believed to be audible only to bats.
Media interviews can mean more to a manager’s reputation, and job security, than they probably should.
Here was his manager openly mocking him with a quote which bordered on cruelty.
Dave Kidd
And by giving the media what they want, Amorim will be cut more slack by those who cover United on a daily basis than Ten Hag, whose press conferences became exercises in blood-from-stone extraction.
Amorim celebrated his 40th birthday after three wins from United’s last four matches — not that they have played particularly well in any of them.
After the Fulham game, match-winner Lisandro Martinez revealed: “He’s going to do ‘the tunnel’ with players on either side slapping him.”
This is a modern-day take on getting ‘the bumps’ and we might assume Rashford used the opportunity to give his boss an extra hard smack.
But while Amorim is playing a ballsy, high-stakes game in his treatment of the player, this is a calculated approach.
Win or bust in the long term, Old Trafford’s firestarter is not going to die wondering.
MAN UTD PLAYER RATINGS: Maguire puts in superb defensive display but Garnacho caught running into blind alleys
MANCHESTER UNITED secured a hard-fought three points against Fulham.
Lisandro Martinez’s deflected strike proved to be the difference in what was the Red Devils’ only shot on target all game.
Harry Maguire impressed but Alejandro Garnacho once again failed to impress in what could have been his Man Utd farewell amid rumours linking him with Napoli and Chelsea.
Here is how SunSport rated the individual performances.
Andre Onana – 7
Good save low down to his left to keep out an Alex Iwobi shot early doors.
Other than that he was barely tested but no glaring errors mean it is a step in the right direction for the Red Devils No1.
Diogo Dalot – 6
Had a difficult time in the first half up against Iwobi who was Fulham‘s main attacking threat.
Switched to the left flank in the second half and supported Garnacho without posing much of a threat.
Matthijs de Ligt – 8
Another strong showing at the back from the Dutchman. Without his support for Dalot, Fulham may have created a goal down United’s right-hand side.
Harry Maguire – 9
A superb defensive display from the England star who has been one of United’s best players since Amorim took charge.
Pulled off a brilliant header at the back post to deny Rodrigo Muniz a certain goal.
Lisandro Martinez – 8
Superb last-ditch tackle to prevent Emile Smith Rowe from shooting as he burst through on goal.
His goal had a big slice of luck as it was deflected past Bernd Leno but credit to him for having the audacity to shoot.
Noussair Mazraoui – 7
Solid at the back and tried to get forward when he could. United looked more balance with him on the left and Dalot on the right, although the pair swapped at half-time.
Manuel Ugarte – 6
Showed some nice touches and was a bit of a menace in the middle – in a positive and negative sense. Kept a close eye on Smith Rowe and allowed him no time on the ball.
Booked for a foul on Adama Traore and was taken off shortly afterwards with an injury.
Bruno Fernandes – 5
Not at his best. Barely saw the ball in the first half and was not very effective when he did get it.
Amad Diallo – 6
Looked bright on the ball and United’s only real outlet going forward.
He worked tirelessly and pressed really well – his hard work paid off when he found the back of the net in stoppage time but his effort was chalked off.
Alejandro Garnacho – 3
Was cautious on the ball and ran into blind alleys too often. Final ball let him down on the rare occasion he did manage to beat a defender.
Rasmus Hojlund – 4
His hold up play is nowhere near good enough for this system or for a club like United.
He was too gung-ho at times and his erratic nature meant linking up with Amad and Garnacho proved difficult.
Hauled off before the hour mark which says it all about his performance.
Subs:
Leny Yoro (for De Ligt, 58mins) – 6
A more assured display given his shaky start to life in the Premier League.
Joshua Zirkzee (for Hojlund, 58mins) – 5
Like Hojlund he had a difficult time holding the ball up but United improved with him on the pitch.
Toby Collyer (for Ugarte, 76mins ) – 6
Solid display again from the youngster who was often in the right position to clear, including one on the line to stop a Joachim Andersen header from going in.
Kobbie Mainoo (for Garnacho, 80mins) – 6
Provided energy in midfield and shored things up alongside Collyer.
A brilliant one-two with Amad set up the winger to score before VAR ruled Amad offside.
Tyrell Malacia (for Mazraoui, 80mins) – 6
Brought on in an unfamiliar right wing-back role but did what was needed to see out the clean sheet.
