Vinted's filter sidebar groups by price bands, not by exact price. Most buyers tick a couple of boxes — typically 'under £15' or '£10 to £15' — and never see what sits a pound the other side of that line. A £14.50 listing shows up in two of the most-ticked filter buckets.
A £15 listing shows up in the next bracket up, where it's competing against £25 items and looks like the cheap option in a more expensive room. Same item, two completely different shop windows. The fix is to price just inside the lower band, not the round number above it. £14.50 not £15. £24.50 not £25. £49.50 not £50.
The 50p costs you nothing in margin and buys you the more crowded, lower-bracket filter slot. VintSnap suggests prices based on sold comparables and rounds them down to the band edge automatically — but if you're pricing manually, the rule is: round down to .50, never up to the next pound.
