Selling electronic goods (Vinted)
I know you can get shift buyers anywhere but for any of you reading this that have sold (AND POSTED) electronic goods online, is yous experience generally good or have you had any horrors?
I've sold a fairly wide range of things as I've been clearing the house out but generally my rule has been no electronics to be posted, because I don't trust the other person basically. Especially on something like eBay where the buyer holds all the cards. I just think they're a high risk item.
Currently have something for sale on marketplace but it's not really generated any interest, even though it's pretty much brand new.
Considering trying my luck with Vinted but I'm only new to it this week & from what I can see it's postage only.

For anything even slightly expensive I’d choose eBay over Vinted any time. For anything cheap I’d choose Vinted.

I think I'll stick to Marketplace & just hope for the best.
Absolutely don't trust eBay & their 'buyers are angels and never do any wrong' policy.
