The second-hand marketplace Shoppers Express Anger Over Size Updates
Shoppers are voicing their frustration following a change that caused listings displaying inaccurate size information.
This online marketplace has altered its size classifications for women's and children's garments failing to inform all shoppers about the modification.
Online Platforms Reaction
Numerous buyers and vendors have taken to social media stating that platform listings now display a different size category compared to what was initially listed due to the recalibration.
The company said the updated approach better aligns with comparable marketplaces.
It has advised users to review their products and update the measurements by hand where appropriate, which has left users frustrated.
Sizing System Updates
Earlier, the measurements included numerical and alphabetical indicators, for instance S/8 or M/10.
The new system has an alphabetical indicator and numerical range for example S/UK 8-10.
In some cases, the measurements have been reclassified - like an L measurement was formerly size 12 but currently displays as UK 16-18.
Member Stories
A fashion influencer, who produces content about larger sizing, stated the update "complicates both purchasing and selling".
"Few clothing companies classify XL as 20-22," which is what Vinted now does.
Another user, from Glasgow, stated items she posted featuring size 14 markings were displaying on the service as measurements 20-22.
"Should someone sized 20-22 purchase these they will likely be quite upset," she stated.
Required Changes
A different user, from Derby, said she had been left angered due to the update requiring manual adjustment the measurements for "each individual item".
"This situation is especially annoying, because of my ongoing medical condition and Vinted sales have been crucial following partial earnings loss," she said.
Service Background
The service features exceeding 100 million users, comprising 18 million UK members.
It has become a favored option versus similar marketplaces including eBay and Depop.
This is not the initial instance that an unexpected update on the platform has faced criticism: earlier, the platform withdrew an update concerning shipment methods due to shopper criticism.
