Vinted seller using famous 'business partner' to help sell clothes online

A Vinted seller has come up with a hilarious marketing strategy in an attempt to speed up the sales of her items on the online marketplace.

Selling second hand items is a huge market, it has become even more popular in the past few years. Due to the popularity of selling your own second hand clothes, it is important that you stand out from the crowd when doing so.

One Vinted seller has definitely set herself apart from the crowd on the popular app. How, you wonder? By using using a surprising “business partner” to model the items that are for sale, reports the Mirror.

The online seller is known on Vinted as Harryinmystyles. She cleverly posts items she sells being modelled by a Harry Styles life size cardboard cutout.

Harryinmystyles, who's real name is unknown, wrote in their Vinted bio: "Just me and my business partner, Harry. Clearing out my wardrobe and making some cash."

Items on sale range from blazers and jackets, to bright floral dresses and shoes. The Vinted seller has been rated five stars by people who have purchased items from her. One of the reviews says: “Product received and everything is all good here. Say thanks to Harry for me too”. Another happy reviewer commented: “Fantastic seller, lovely dress in immaculate condition, thanks”.

The man behind this funny marketing technique, Harry Styles, has not yet commented on the Vinted account but his modelling counterpart remains active on the online marketplace.
