Primark shoppers have hit out at some Vinted sellers for listing the budget retailer's viral jumper for almost £40. It comes as Primark's £17 'jumper of the season' has been so popular that some stores have reportedly sold out as shoppers race to get their hands on the 'warm and chic' garment. On TikTok, fashion bloggers claim the jumper has been so hard to find in stores lately that they've described it as gold dust.
However, there is one platform where the jumper is being sold - Vinted. Some Vinted resellers have listed the jumper with a hefty price increase. But Primark fans are being urged by fellow shoppers not to pay more than they need to.
One user asked: "Why are people trying to sell the Primark jumper on Vinted for like £35? It's £17...
. If you don't actually want it, don't buy it when someone that wants it could've had it. Stop trying to profit off of something just because it's gone viral on TikTok, especially when you're just buying it to sell it on.
" Another user called Loistallantox claimed: "This jumper will go out of stock, and will keep coming back into stock, while we are going through winter. You will, somehow, be able to get your hands on this jumper whether it's sooner than you'd like it or later than you'd like it. You will get this jumper from a Primark store eventually.
Please do not go on Vinted and pay this." Loistallantox then showed an example of the jumper being sold on the platform for £35, which goes up to £37.45 with postage and Buyers P.
