Should I Send an Offer After Someone Favourites a Vinted Item?

Sending a sensible offer to an interested buyer can help, but you do not need to discount every favourite immediately. Know your minimum price first.

Plain EnglishPractical seller answerUpdated September 2026
Short answer

It can be worth sending an offer when you have room in the price and you would be happy to sell at the discounted amount. A favourite shows interest, not a promise to buy, so use offers selectively rather than automatically cutting every item.

What is really going on?

Some buyers favourite items to compare later, wait for payday or build a bundle. An offer can remove price hesitation, but too much discount can turn a healthy margin into a weak sale.

What I would do

1. Work out your minimum acceptable sale price before sending anything.

2. Use a modest first offer when the item has fresh interest.

Use this as a practical test, then judge the result from your own views, favourites, offers and sales rather than guessing.

3. Avoid racing straight to your absolute minimum.

4. Track which discount levels actually convert so future offers are based on your own data.

Simple example

If an item is listed at £25 and you are happy at £21, a £22–£23 offer leaves room without immediately giving away the full margin.

Do not do this

Do not send a deep discount simply because someone tapped favourite seconds after you listed it.

How to judge whether it worked

Give a meaningful change enough time to collect evidence. Look at views, favourites, offers, final selling price and days-to-sell together. One number on its own can be misleading. Vinted can change features, ranking behaviour and marketplace rules, so use the current in-app guidance for anything policy-specific.
