How long should a Vinted description be?

Short. Three to six lines is plenty for most items. Buyers skim on their phones, so lead with the facts they filter by and skip filler like 'lovely bargain, must go'.

What makes a good Vinted description

Vinted buyers scroll fast on their phones. The descriptions that sell answer their questions in a few lines, so they don't have to message you first:

What it is: brand, item and style in plain words ("Levi's 501 straight leg jeans").
Size and fit: the label size, plus how it fits ("runs small, fits more like a 10").
Measurements: pit to pit, length or waist and inside leg. These save more questions than anything else.
Colour and material: from the care label if you have it.
Honest condition: name any marks, bobbling or fading, and show them in a photo. It avoids "not as described" claims.
Postage: how quickly you send it.

What to leave out: "lovely bargain", "must go", long stories, and walls of hashtags. They push the useful facts off the screen.

An example description

This is the kind of description Snappy writes from one photo of a pair of jeans and a quick snap of the label:

Example listing Levi's 501 straight leg jeans, mid blue, W30 L32 Classic Levi's 501s in a mid blue wash. Straight leg, button fly, 100% cotton. Good condition: light natural fading, no rips or stains. Waist 15" flat across, inside leg 32". Posted within 1 working day. Suggested price: £18 to £24

The title follows the pattern that gets found in Vinted search: brand, item, detail, colour, size. For more on titles and photos, see how to write a Vinted listing that sells.
