How does condition grading affect Vinted price?

Condition grading

Condition grading on Vinted is seller-selected. Across categories we have measured, the gap between the best and worst grade is large — on the order of roughly 3.5× to 7× in median asking price at departure — and the step from “very good” to “good” is often brutal. Treat the exact multiple as indicative; over-grade is how sellers ask for a price the item will not fetch.

We grouped sold listings by the condition the seller selected. The direction is solid: better grades leave at higher asks. The exact multiple is indicative — an item listed new-with-tags is also more likely to be a newer, more desirable model, so not all of the gap is condition alone.

On Nike sneakers, the measured shape ran roughly €70 new with tags, €50 new without, €30 very good, €15 good, €10 satisfactory. The drop from “very good” to “good” halved the median. Grade in daylight before money moves. If you cannot stand behind the grade, do not buy it.

Are Vinted condition labels trustworthy?

They are seller-selected. Over-grade is common because one step of honesty can halve the median on sneakers. Check the item, not the badge. Manual: https://resaleiq.dev/manual/condition-and-authenticity
