Frequently asked questions

Items shown on Gathered Goods are purchased through the marketplace where they are currently listed, such as Vinted, eBay, or Facebook Marketplace. Gathered Goods Co. has no cart or checkout of its own. Every “View & buy on Vinted”, “View & buy on eBay”, or “View & buy on Facebook Marketplace” button opens the live listing, and you complete the purchase there.

Each is a separate marketplace with its own checkout, fees, shipping options, and buyer protection. Vinted holds the full current closet shown on this site; eBay and Facebook Marketplace are additional storefronts. Whichever you buy through, that marketplace’s terms apply to the order.

Prices are copied from the live Vinted listing each time the site’s listings are refreshed. The price on the marketplace listing is the one that counts, and the marketplace may add its own buyer fee and shipping at checkout.

Yes. Message the seller directly through the marketplace listing on Vinted, eBay, or Facebook Marketplace. That keeps your question and your purchase in one place. For anything else, email gatheredgoodscovintage@gmail.com.

Orders are typically prepared and shipped within 48 hours, excluding Sundays, postal holidays, severe weather, or circumstances outside our control.

Often. New finds are added regularly and pieces sell quickly. The site’s listings are refreshed from the marketplace daily, and the live listing is always the final word on availability.

Open the listing. The marketplace controls stock and sold status in real time, and every button on this site leads straight to that live page.
