When Vinted wins
Vinted is built for second-hand fashion and everyday items. Because the buyer pays postage, your listing price is all you need to think about, and no label cost comes out of your money. Australian postage is dear compared with many countries, so not having to price it in is a real advantage for cheaper clothes.
When eBay wins
eBay's buyers search by exact model, size and brand, which suits electronics, collectibles, car parts and anything with a model number. Auctions help when you don't know what something is worth, and eBay reaches far more buyers across Australia.
Watch the buyer's total
Both platforms add a fee on top of your price, so buyers compare totals, not your asking price. On a cheap item, Vinted's fixed $1.20 makes its fee a little higher than eBay's; on dearer items eBay's fee is usually the larger one. The calculator shows what the buyer pays on each site.
Can you list on both?
Yes. Lots of sellers list the same item on both and remove the other listing as soon as it sells. The risk is selling it twice, so be quick to delist.
