Want to Sell Your Vintage Pieces Fast on Vinted or Other Platforms? Start With the Photos!
Photos are the first thing buyers notice-and a great image can make all the difference 🚀. Here are our best tips to help your items sell faster 🔥
📸 1. Use Natural (and Soft) Lighting
Nothing beats natural light to highlight the colors and textures of a vintage piece.
➡️ Avoid night shots or harsh flash. The best setup? Take your photos near a window or outdoors in the shade.
💡 Looking for inspiration for your photo shoots? At United Vintage, every item in our bundles deserves a beautiful setting. Check out our boxes to hunt down your next vintage gems [see our offers].
🧹 2. Keep the Background Clean (Simple = Better)
A busy background distracts from the item. Stick with:
-
A white or plain wall
-
A light wooden floor
-
Or a clean, smooth sheet for flat lays
👉 Every piece from our United Vintage bundles deserves a clean, attractive presentation to maximize your sales. Our customers often say their items sell fast from the very first photo!
👗 3. Show the Item Worn
Buyers love to see how the garment fits:
-
Wear it yourself (just for the photo is enough)
-
Or use a mannequin or a well-positioned hanger
Pro tip: take multiple angles (front, back, close-ups).
🔍 4. Zoom in on the Details
It's the little things that make the difference:
-
Show brand tags
-
Highlight unique patterns
-
Photograph any small flaws (builds trust and avoids disputes)
👉 Our mystery bundles are full of unique pieces-sometimes it's those special details that seal the deal. See what you could find inside here.
🔄 5. Add Multiple Photos
Never post just one picture! 4 to 6 photos per item is ideal to help buyers visualize and decide faster.
