Rachel Riley Instagram – Sent myself down a Vinted maths rabbit hole…
Bundles discounts means that if there is a big difference in the prices of the items you’re selling, you could be giving actual huge price decreases for more items. Obviously the process isn’t legally binding so you can still cancel orders once they’re placed, but it almost defeats the point of this system and I bet plenty of busy people have been caught out not expecting this to be a thing!
For non-Vinted-ers, sellers can set their own bundle discount incentives to encourage more purchases. In this example, the seller offers 10% off for 2 items, 20% for 3 and 30% when you buy 5, which means there’s an amount the extra items can cost up to that results in the discount actually decreasing the total price (maths geek details in final shot). I’ve found absolutely loads of accounts accidentally offering these discounts. A better system could be add a discount to the lower priced items so the total price never actually goes down.
Anyway, pretty much all my kids’ wardrobes are from @vinted, love them but get your maths together 😆
