I'm a full-time Vinted reseller who has earned £18,000 from flogging cheap clothes online - here are my top tips on how to become successful on the platform

A secondhand online clothes seller who has made thousands of pounds on Vinted has revealed her top tips for sales success.
Maisie, who is from Yorkshire, searches cat boot sales, charity shops and online pre-loved websites for cheaply-priced garments with a high resale value.
Although it started off as a side hustle, Maisie made reselling her full time career last year after earning £18,000 from flogging clothes.
Now, she has helped others by telling them how they too can make a wage from the app - and according to her, it's very simple.
Maisie said: 'I absolutely love buying on Vinted to resell on Vinted. It's so easy and it just goes to show the difference that a good quality picture with good lighting and a good background can honestly make.'
She says that you should always list similar clothes sizes at the same time on Vinted, as people may browse your page and find other items that they like, resulting in more sales.
'They're more likely to get their money's worth by buying a bundle from you so it will boost your sales and your profit at the same time,' Maisie added.
'You're only having to ship out one parcel and the buyer is only having to pay one lot of postage and fees.'
Masie has made £18,000 from selling on Vinted so far and has now made reselling her main job
Maisie said wannabe sellers also have to be careful about how they draft listings on Vinted - as sometimes a post can appear as though it was shared earlier than it was.
In another clip, the reselling expert explained: 'If you draft something and then a week later you decide to hit live and publish it, it won't show as a new listing. It will show when you drafted it, which was a week ago.
'It will come up older in the listings, it won't show up at the top, it will show up as being a week old which will affect how people are looking at your listings because a lot of people will search for newest first.'
Recently, Maisie revealed how she sold a dress for more than four times what she paid for it.
She purchased a WoolOvers boho linen dress for just £3.30 on Vinted as part of a bundle from a seller.
Maisie then ended up reselling it on eBay for a whopping £20.46.
She also has her own system so she can find the items she has listed quickly and get them shipped off to the buyer
'If you're not keen on getting out to car boots or charity shops or you just don't have the time, get on Vinted,' she said.
'Then, get this stuff delivered to your door, take better photographs, and list it back on Vinted!'
This video racked up many comments from other impressed Vinted sellers who praised Maisie on her sales success.
One wrote: 'Amazing flip!! I've just started reselling too!! Sometimes it is just a case of taking better photos too!!'
Another said: 'That's amazing,' to which Maisie responded: 'Magic of photography eh!'
Many other Vinted sellers have praised Maisie for sharing her clever tips and tricks on how to sell clothes for a profit
A third penned: 'Thank you! I love watching your videos.'
She also has her own system so she can find the items she has listed quickly and get them shipped off to the buyer.
In another video, Maisie explained how she had bought clear plastic bags and used stickers to number each one.
She then puts an item into a bag with a designated number once she has listed it and puts the number in her post, so it reminds her which bag it is in.
'It's going to make life so much easier and it is so satisfying coming in and doing ten listings and then putting them into bags,' she said.

Marriage Diaries: Should I get a prenup for my second wedding or trust my husband-to-be?

Should you be planning the end of your marriage before you've even tied the knot? This is the question that's been plaguing me for the past few weeks. I'm 58 years old, and next March will be marrying Steve, 60. It will be a second wedding for both of us: I have three young adult daughters and he has a son. Steve and I are taking great pleasure in planning the next stage of our lives together. But – in between conversations about which location would suit our intimate ceremony, and what dress I should wear as a 50-something bride – I can't help but wonder whether we should get a prenuptial agreement. I'm so preoccupied about this decision that it's been keeping me awake at night. I've been fully open with Steve about my dilemma. He's quite relaxed about the subject, and isn't offended (at least, that's what he tells me) but doesn't think a prenup is necessary. I think this comes down to how we both experienced the end of our last marriages. My divorce from my ex-husband came through six years ago. It was nasty and protracted and expensive, mostly because my ex tried to hide money abroad and attempted to bully me into submission when I was hoping to appeal to his – ultimately absent – better nature. In the end, I had to hire a top family law firm. After a draining process – which ended up in court with a finance dispute resolution – I received a fair settlement. But it cost me the best part of £50,000 and a whole lot of tears. On the other hand, Steve's experience of divorce was far more pleasant. He and his wife had an amicable 'no fault' settlement, which barely involved lawyers. His son was also grown up, so it was less traumatic for everyone. After the sale of the London marital home, my children and I moved into a small cottage in West Sussex which I decorated with great care: I feel happy and settled here. I love my current home so much that Steve has agreed to move in with me while he rents out his Yorkshire house. When it comes to our respective finances, Steve and I are comfortable, but neither of us are rich: I'd say that financially, we are in a similar situation. We are both self-employed in the arts world and our properties are worth about the same. Prenuptial agreements didn't used to be binding in the UK, but I've consulted a lawyer who has told me that – done the right way – they can be. The problem is, setting up a legally watertight agreement could cost up to £4,000. My best friend is telling me that I'm being cynical and defeatist. Having known me for most of my life, she agrees that Steve is a far nicer man than my ex. I should embrace this happy new path with joy, she says, and not throw shade on the occasion by being negative. But she hasn't been through the pain of divorce: she hasn't seen how a white-wedding day can turn into a miasma of bitterness and hatred. I'm just not sure I could go through all that again. All I really care about is keeping this well-loved roof over my head, should we separate – this basic security is everything to me. 'We're both nice people,' says Steve. 'In the worst-case scenario we would sort it out, and I would never take your home from you.' But is it naive to believe this statement, uttered when things are at their rosiest? Surely one of the gifts of reaching midlife is learning from experience, and not making the same mistakes again. Should I listen to my gut and instruct a lawyer? Or am I being negative and doomy – and would my time (and money) be better spent on booking a super-luxurious honeymoon?

Parliament serves food off German-made plates – sparking huge patriotism row and calls for Palace to 'buy British'

THE UK Parliament is serving food off German plates - sparking a huge patriotism row. Furious MPs slammed the "outrageous" practice and called on the Palace of Westminster to put country first and 'buy British". The members dining room in the House of Commons is used by MPs and is one of the grandest restaurants in the building. Its elaborate menu boasts that "wherever possible we use British produce'. But it serves its grub on plain white plates and saucers which are made by Villeroy and Boch - a German firm founded in 1748. Gareth Snell, Labour MP for Stoke-on-Trent Central - known as 'The Potteries because of its proud ceramics industry - slammed the practice. He told The Sun on Sunday: "Britain has the best ceramics in the world - but our own parliament is serving food off German plates. 'This is outrageous and it is unpatriotic. 'Parliament should support businesses in areas like mine and buy British crockery.' 2 Britain's once booming potteries industry has been hammered by sky high energy costs. Many firms have shed jobs and some have closed. Mr Snell is launching a Buy British potteries campaign - and is urging the parliamentary authorities to lead by example and only use UK-made plates. Robert Flello, CEO of Ceramics UK, said: 'Why is the UK House of Commons using German cups and saucers and plates in the dining room used by MPs? 'It is outrageous. They need to be told to buy British. There is no excuse. 'Our potteries produce the best quality crockery. 'Buying British goods is a matter of national pride and will also help an industry struggling because our energy costs are going through the roof. 'If you go to any other country - France or Italy say - I bet their state institutions are using crockery made in their own country.' Parliament has lots of different restaurants and cafes serving food off a wide range of crockery bought from suppliers from around the world. While it uses some crockery made in the UK, it does not have a policy to only buy British. A House of Commons spokesman said:'We source a wide range of crockery from firms within the UK, as well as from those based elsewhere. All purchasing is in line with relevant legislation for public bodies, which prioritises value for money."
