'Just make sure you price your items correctly, do your research.

'It's a very, very popular brand at the moment.'

Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted?
QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted...
The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it.
Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017.

'Just make sure that if you are clearing out your children's toys, you are checking the tags - even if it's books, some books are by Jellycat, so have a look at the labels.
'Make sure that you aren't giving anything away or selling something at a car boot sale that is actually worth quite a lot.
'Jellycats are increasing in popularity, so these do so well on Vinted.'

She also advised: 'Just make sure that they are genuine - there are a lot of fakes. Google how to tell if they're real.'
Trainers
As well as this, Chloe urged sellers to upload their trainers to the marketplace app, as she explained: 'Trainers always do well on Vinted.
'If you have a pair of old New Balance or Nikes, specifically vintage, early 90s sort of shoes, they do really well.

'Make sure you do your research - don't just sell it for £2,' she voiced.
Crochet items
Similarly, if you've got crochet items you haven't worn in years, you'll need to get uploading them quick.
Chloe claimed that 'anything crochet,' including bags and ponchos, will sell fast.
Why I hate Vinted, a real-life view
Fabulous Associate Editor Sarah Barns opens up on why she hates Vinted:
It's the king of second-hand fashion but I hate Vinted.
There I said it. Yes, it stops items going into landfill. Yes, it helps create additional side-hustle income for many.
And yes, you can get things at bargain prices. But it is just not my (shopping) bag.
From personal experience, I've bought 'cheap' bundles of children's clothes only for them to arrive dirty and misshapen.
Plus, with postage and buyer protection they didn't feel like such a great deal. I much prefer going to my local charity shop or supermarket for kids' stuff.
I've also bought more premium high-street items - a dress from Arket and a skirt from Cos - only to find they didn't fit properly and the colours were faded.
I attempted a bout of selling stuff but gave up after my £110 Veja trainers got lost in the post and I spent two hours on the phone to Royal Mail.
A major gripe with it is that it still encourages you to spend, spend, spend. I'm not sure I needed the items I did purchase, I just didn't want to miss out.
Also, the reselling of fast-fashion items - a £5 Shein top on Vinted for £17.50 - makes me feel a bit queasy.
Clothes shopping has become a daily hobby for a lot of people when really it should be something that's done once or twice a year as a necessity.
But the 18 million Vinted app users clearly disagree with me.
She acknowledged: 'People wear a lot of crochet items just as a little cover up for holiday and festivals and things.

'I'll add some ponchos to my favourites and they sell so quickly.
'Specifically ones from Per Una, old Marks & Spencer, those sorts of brands."
Silk items from Monsoon
Finally, Chloe revealed that anything silk from Monsoon is sure to make you cash fast.
She concluded: 'Anything that is Monsoon that is silk - I have sold so much of this.

I wish I'd kept all of my extremely noughties clothes now

'I think I've sold about five silk Monsoon items within the last month, it does really, really well - specifically little cami tops and dresses.
'Make sure you check your labels, because nine times out of 10 people don't realise that they are silk and then someone else gets a bargain, looks, sees that it's silk and then puts it on for double the price.'
