How to Build Bundles That Actually Sell - and How You Can Do the Same

How to Build Bundles That Actually Sell - and How You Can Do the Same

At United Vintage, Packs Often Sell Faster Than Single Pieces. Why?
Because a well-curated bundle isn't just a pile of clothes - it's a ready-to-wear, shootable mini-wardrobe with a vibe. Here's how we build our bundles, and how you can use the same method for Vinted (or even Instagram).


🧠 1. Rule #1: A Theme That Speaks

At United Vintage, we don't handpick each piece one by one - we open bales and sort. That's where it starts. When we spot 2-3 items with a shared vibe, we know we can build a pack that sells.

Example lots we offer:

  • Y2K Mood - iconic 2000s brands like Evisu, True Religion, G-star

  • Summer Mix - branded summer-ready items (Lacoste, Nike, Adidas, Ralph Lauren...)

  • Spring Mix - hoodies, sweatshirts & warmer pieces from top brands (Nike, Adidas, The North Face...)

➡️ The customer sees the pack and instantly pictures an outfit or aesthetic. No guesswork. And that sells.

🎨 2. Consistency = The Key to Selling

Colors, fabrics, style - everything should flow.
We avoid chaotic mixes. A destroyed jean, preppy polo, and a kimono? That's a no... unless it's a bold, intentional look.

👉 What works:

  • Colors that match (e.g., beige + green + light denim)

  • Complementary fabrics (e.g., cotton + denim + light linen)

  • One consistent style (e.g., all streetwear, all 90s, all chill)

And we always ask: will this look good in photos?


🧩 3. Mix It Up - But Thoughtfully

A good bundle is like a mini capsule wardrobe.
✔️ We aim for:

  • One top

  • One bottom

  • One standout piece (like a jacket or overshirt)

Examples:

  • Festival Ready - colorful shirt + denim shorts + tee

  • Soft Girl - pastel sweater + pleated skirt + jacket

  • Streetcore - logo tee + cargos + flannel

Avoid 3 of the same item unless it's the point (like a "3x 90s Sweatshirts" pack - cool, if they're all unique and stylish).


💰 4. Pricing That Feels Like a Steal

We often price our lots slightly lower than the total of individual items.

Example:

  • Jeans: €25

  • Tee: €10

  • Jacket: €30
    ➡️ Total: €65
    ➡️ Bundle price: €50 → it feels like a deal to the buyer.

💡 Try "2 for 1" deals, or toss in a little freebie (like a tote or cool accessory).


📸 5. Visuals Matter - Always

Whether it's for your website, Insta, or a resale platform, photos sell the pack.

What we do:

  • Try-ons: always more effective - if you're selling it, wear it (or ask someone to).

  • Flatlays: all 3 pieces laid out together, clean background

  • Detail shots: logos, textures, tags

  • Clear descriptions: sizes, brands, condition - no surprises

And yes - we clean and steam everything before the shoot. Even jeans.
