REGA uses few words, and it always uses the same ones. Knowing them changes the way you read the screen: “widened” stops being a fault, “no cap” stops being a detail, and “Already used” stops being a compliment. This page is the product’s dictionary. Every entry gives the word exactly as it is written on screen — in English and in French, because REGA switches from one language to the other without moving anything — then what it means, then where it is explained in full. The product covers three worlds today: Vinted, Vestiaire Collective, and reshipping. They share a way of speaking, not a dictionary. “Parcel”, “sold”, “Autobuy” and “dispute” are spelled the same way in all three and do not name the same thing. This page keeps them apart first, family by family, then sets them against each other.
How to read this page. The table below is the index: one word, its translation, one line. The sections that follow are the detail, family by family, with the exact wording of the screen. Vestiaire Collective and reshipping keep indexes of their own, in the middle of the page: they are two different worlds, and several of these words come back there meaning something else. And the section “The words that look alike and do not mean the same thing”, further down, is the one that prevents costly mistakes — it is the only one to read if you read just one.

​
The index

These are the words of the Vinted screens, the core of the product. Vestiaire Collective and reshipping keep their own lists further down. This first index is Vinted’s. The two other worlds have their own, further down: “The words of Vestiaire Collective” and “The words of reshipping”.

What REGA looks for

rega's Filters screen, with numbered pins on its controls

The Filters screen. Every word in this section is here: “+ New filter”, “+ Group”, and the “Detections” and “Autobuy first” sorts.

What watches Vinted for you, permanently, whether your tab is open or not.In Settings → RADAR it reads in one word: “Active — the radar is sweeping” or “Stopped”. What it looks for is not a hidden setting: under “What the radar looks for”, the answer is two words — “Your filters.”
If a screen tells you “No filter — the radar is looking for nothing.”, that is not a fault: it is a radar running empty. Write a filter.
Your standing order. You describe the item you want; the radar runs that description against every listing as it is born.A filter’s card says it in one sentence: “Every criterion adds up. What is left blank is not narrowed.” In other words, a field left empty is not a mistake — it is an open door.On its row, a filter carries its detection counter, its regime, and — if it is armed — its cap or the words “no cap”.
A disabled filter detects nothing at all. The screen writes it on its row: “disabled”, and the feed picker adds “— filter disabled, it detects nothing”.
→ Everything is in Writing a good filter.
A folder of filters, and a little more than that: “A group creates a sub-page in the Dashboard and can hold several filters.” Its row even carries the badge “Dashboard sub-page”.So it is as much a screen as it is storage: the name you give it becomes a tab you will read a hundred times a day. Name it like a shop aisle — the example the product offers is “e.g. Leather goods”.
Deleting a group deletes no filter: “The group’s filters are kept, they go back to having no group”.
A listing that has just passed one of your filters. It is the unit of account of the whole product: filters sort by “Detections”, the statistics have a “DETECTIONS” column, and the matching alert is called “On every detection” — “A notification as soon as a listing passes one of your filters.”A detection is not a purchase, and not a promise either: it is a listing being shown to you.
On a wide filter, “Notify me” is a deliberate trap, and the product warns you: “No cap is applied: a wide filter will produce a lot of them.”
The pill every filter row carries. It does not say whether the filter is good — it says how fast its listings will reach you, and it is a direct consequence of the criteria you ticked.
The regime can be repaired: the filter’s card tells you which of your criteria costs the delay, under What slows it down: {liste}., and how to get out of it — “with a brand or a keyword, this criterion becomes immediate again”.
The Vinted site the filter watches, and therefore the sellers it can reach. The product defines it itself: “A market = what an account from that country sees. Choosing a market keeps the sellers it can reach.”On a filter’s card, the matching notice is Watching Vinted {pays}., and on its row, a marker Site: {pays}.
A market with no account from the same country detects, but does not buy. The screen says so plainly: No {pays} account is connected: this filter will spot listings, but no purchase can go out.
→ Watching several countries.
The platform itself: Vinted or Vestiaire Collective. It is the very first question asked when you create a filter — “Which marketplace?” — and it is final: “The two share neither their criteria nor their settings. This choice cannot be changed later.”An account group never mixes the two: “A group rotates purchases between its accounts, so it can only hold accounts from a single marketplace.”→ What the second marketplace changes about the work itself is in The marketplace, and how it differs.
The French word for it, “place”, has a second, unrelated meaning elsewhere in the product: in Settings → Subscription, {n} seats available. counts team seats (in French, “places” — the product changes word, we do not).

​
What REGA shows you

rega's dashboard with numbered pins on its controls

The dashboard. “+ Feed” opens a band; “Wall”, “Folder” and “Table” change its layout; the AUTOBUY panel and the paying account hold the words of buying.

Three nested words, and the product never confuses them.
  • “the whole stream” — all your detections, with no filter restriction. The picker even offers “Open a feed on the whole stream — no filter restriction”.
  • A feed — a band on screen, opened on a filter, a group, or the whole stream. You open several side by side, you rename them, you pin them (“Pin (keep on screen)”).
  • The “General feed” — the one the others inherit their buying settings from, as long as they have none of their own.
A feed pushed off screen is not switched off. The product insists, twice: “There is no room left on screen; it carries on detecting and counting.” and, on the tab, “— as a tab: it detects and counts, click to bring it on screen”.
A feed opened on a group of filters becomes a “feed group”, and as such it can carry its own buying scope — that is, buy with a different account from the rest.The “SCOPE, FEED BY FEED” table lists them all, with the rule underneath: “Without a setting of its own, a feed group follows the general feed: it still buys.”
“It still buys” is the half that surprises: setting nothing on a feed group does not stop it buying. It makes it buy like the general feed.
The three layouts of a feed. They change only the display: the same detections, presented differently.Table is the only one with a size condition, and it explains it: “The table aligns seven columns: it is offered only from a 1280 px window upwards.” Nor does it share the screen: “The table compares rows aligned across the full width: one feed at a time. Switch to wall or folder to open several.”
Two close words the product keeps apart consistently.
  • A listing is the page published by a seller on the marketplace. It is born, it can be hidden, it can disappear. That is what the radar sees: “Many listings at a glance”.
  • An item is the object itself, the one you watch and the one you buy: “The list of tracked items — sold, withdrawn or still on sale”, “No watched item”, “Cap per item”.
Remember it when reading a counter: the statistics count listing detections, the watchlist counts watched items. They are not the same populations.
The watchlist is the list of items you have set aside. You get in through the heart on a card: “No watched item — the heart on a feed card adds the item here.” On a phone, the tab is called “Tracked” (in French, “Suivis”).A check is a re-reading of a watched item’s price and availability. The banner announces the rhythm, one check every {duree} — in practice 15 minutes, and an item’s card confirms it — This item is checked about every {cadence} — the same rhythm as every watched item, whatever its age.
A directly usable consequence: at that rhythm, a price drop reaches you about a quarter of an hour after it happens. That is fresh enough to trade on — provided the rhythm is holding, which is exactly what the banner below tells you.
If the banner shows checks slowed ×{facteur}, nothing is lost, but the fifteen minutes stretch: “None is lost, they are served more slowly: the real interval is about {reel}.” The banner spells that real interval out, so you never have to guess how old a price is.

​
What buys

Automatic buying. The pill at the top of the screen arms and disarms it, and two lines in the AUTOBUY panel say where it runs:
  • “Autobuy” — “from detection, even with this tab closed”
  • “Where automatic buying runs” — “on our servers — closing the tab does not stop it”
That second line states a fact, it does not set it. Automatic buying runs on our servers: it survives closing the tab, closing the browser, and switching the machine off. The only thing that stops it is disarming it — confirmation: “Autobuy disarmed”.
On a filter, the same word comes back under “Autobuy on this filter” — “Automatic purchase as soon as it is detected.” An armed filter carries the badge “Automatic purchase armed”.
They are named almost the same and they do not bound the same purchases. From widest to narrowest:The “Purchase ceiling” describes itself: “Above this amount, the purchase is refused and you are told. Empty = no ceiling.” Once set, it also refuses an item whose price is there but cannot be read as a number, rather than attempting the purchase on a figure nobody could read.A filter’s “€ max” is set under the hint “Cap per item — leave empty to impose no cap”. Left empty, the screen warns you once, in red: “No cap: this filter will buy whatever the price.” After that, all that remains on the row is a discreet “no cap”.→ The full detail is in Money.
The setting that answers a single question, and the panel’s title asks it as such: “WHO PAYS FOR PURCHASES”.A scope designates either “One specific account” (“no rotation”), or “A group” (“rotation within the group”), or “Every account” (“rotation across all”), or nothing at all — and in that last case it “Inherits from the general feed”: “follows the setting above”.The “SCOPE, FEED BY FEED” table shows, feed by feed, the “Pays with” column and the “At the next purchase” column.
When no account can pay, the scope says so plainly instead of failing later: “No purchase will go out”, or “No account can pay with this setting.” followed by what to do about it.
An account group is something other than a group of filters: “A group gathers accounts in an ORDER. Deleting a group deletes no account.”Rotation is moving from one account to the next, in that order: “When a buying scope designates this group, purchases move from one account to the next, in the order below.” The rhythm is set under “SWITCH ACCOUNT EVERY … PURCHASES” — at 1, that is “Next account on every purchase.”
An account that is out of service does not break the round: “A disconnected account is skipped without shifting the others”.
To keep an account out of a single feed, do not remove it from the group — the product tells you: “Excluding an account for a single feed is done in the buying scope: removing it here would remove it for every feed.”
The “BUYING ACCOUNT” panel shows the account that will pay for the next purchase, with its state: “connected · ready to pay”, or “not connected — the purchase would fail”, or else “no account to buy with — sort this out in Accounts”.On an account’s card, the same verdict is broken down point by point — Login, Address, Bank card, Phone, Pickup point — and summed up in one line: “Ready to buy” (“A purchase started from the radar will go through to payment.”) or {n} things to sort out before buying (“A purchase would stop before payment.”).
There is a third state, easy to miss: “Ready to buy — one setting could still be improved”. Nothing is missing, so the account will buy. Only two of the five points can put it there, and they do not cost the same thing: Pick-up point at “chosen at purchase” — no point saved yet, so every purchase pays ~1.3 s to choose one — and Phone at “not verified” — a number filled in but not confirmed, which slows nothing at all. Read which of the two it is before you go hunting for lost time.
Vinted is reviewing the listing. It is not a refusal, and it is not a withdrawal.Depending on the screen, the wording shifts slightly but the fact is the same:
  • On the feed: “Under verification — the purchase starts as soon as it is verified”
  • In Orders, the “Being checked” tab — “Items being checked by Vinted — the purchase starts as soon as they are cleared”
  • In Sales: “The listing is temporarily hidden by Vinted. This is NOT a withdrawal: we keep checking it.”
  • In the watchlist: “a purchase started now joins the queue”
A purchase started on an item under review is not lost: it waits, and it goes out on its own as soon as Vinted is done.

​
What delivers

The physical place where your parcel waits for you. Two objects carry that name, and confusing them is expensive.1. The place. In Orders, the “Pick-up points” tab groups “Parcels waiting at a pick-up point, grouped by point”. In Accounts, the section is called “WHERE YOU COLLECT YOUR PARCELS”.2. The setting. In Settings → BUYING, “Automatic pick-up point”: “rega chooses the collection point during the purchase. Turned off, the purchase fails for want of a pick-up point — leave it on.”
That setting is on from the start, and it must stay that way. Turned off, the purchase fails — it does not pause and it does not ask anyone anything. The sentence you will see is: “No pick-up point could be selected for this order.”
The choice rule is set just below, under “Which point”: “Nearest”, “Usual” (“The one Vinted puts forward for you”) or “Cheapest”.
The carrier is who ships the parcel. One sentence on the Accounts screen sets the logic of this whole section: “It is the seller who chooses the carrier, not you”.To prepare a carrier is to have Vinted memorise a pickup point for it — and Vinted only memorises one on one condition: “Vinted only keeps one after a first purchase actually paid with this carrier — once, a few euros.” The button says what it does: “PREPARE THIS CARRIER”, with underneath “A real purchase of a few euros, once.”Each carrier then carries one of three states:
The gain does not add up. Preparing a second carrier does not save you 2.6 s: the seller chooses the carrier, so preparing several carriers widens the share of your purchases that save those ~1.3 s — never the gain itself.
It is optional. With no carrier prepared at all, the purchase still goes through; it is simply ~1.3 s slower, and the screen puts a figure on it: It works, but it costs {cout} on every purchase.
An order is a paid purchase, followed through to confirmation. Its states, as they are written:
“Delivered” means arrived at the pick-up point, not in your hands — the product writes it in brackets on purpose. And “To confirm (48 h)” is a Vinted countdown, not a REGA one.
The Sales screen tracks what sold among the items your filters watch. Its vocabulary is that of an item leaving the market:
“Sold” and “Removed” cannot always be told apart. The product does not hide it: the last price read “is not a confirmed sale amount (a sale and a withdrawal produce the same signal)”. The “Sold” tab therefore only shows sales “carrying Vinted’s sale marker — no caveat”.

​
Where each word comes in

The same item, from the moment a seller publishes it to your pick-up point — with, at each step, the word the product uses.

​
The words of Vestiaire Collective

Vestiaire Collective is not a second Vinted, and its words say so. A listing there only goes online once a member of the marketplace’s staff has validated it by hand, at an hour nobody can predict: there is no birth to catch, and so no moment to be sitting in front of your screen for — you arm the radar and you leave it armed. What the screen counts is “watch rounds”, a word that exists nowhere else in the product, and the sign that this screen keeps a vocabulary of its own. Several words do come back — Radar, Filter, Autobuy, Check, Pick-up point — and not one of them means quite the same thing. Everything below is written on the Vestiaire Collective screen, or on the cards it feeds into your main feed.
Here the radar carries its own button, at the top of the Vestiaire Collective screen: “Arm the radar”, which becomes “Disarm the radar”. The header reads “Radar armed” or “Radar disarmed”.But the button is not what holds. An active filter is the arming request: creating one arms the watch by itself, and disarming by hand survives neither a restart nor the creation of a filter while an active filter remains. The corollary is the only thing to remember: to stop detecting, untick “Active filter” — not the radar.
An armed radar with no filter keeps nothing, and the screen says so: “No active filter: nothing will be kept. Create one in the Filters tab.”
One exception, worth knowing before you hunt for a fault: re-ticking “Active filter” on a filter that already existed does not arm the radar there and then. If the header still reads “Radar disarmed”, click “Arm the radar”.
“watch rounds”, “listings seen”, “detections”, “usual delay”, “longest delay”, “refusals from Vestiaire”. The first three count three different things:Only the last tile of the six is worth watching every day: “refusals from Vestiaire” turns red from 1 onwards, and at zero all is well.
A seventh joins them in italics for the first five rounds — “starting up: the first listings are the backlog already online”. It is not an avalanche of new listings: it is the inventory of what was already there. While it is on screen, the “usual delay” is not worth reading.
A Vestiaire detection is wiped after 48 hours. Anything that has to survive goes into tracking or into the watchlist before then.
Two durations, and they do not tell the same story.
  • “usual delay” — “Time between the listing going live on Vestiaire and the moment we saw it. Fixed at discovery.”
  • “longest delay” — “Nine times out of ten, we see the listing in less than this.”
These two durations are not to be judged in the absolute, but on their drift: your own tiles from yesterday are the yardstick. If they climb, the tile to read is not this one but “refusals from Vestiaire” — that is what pushes these two up.
“Fixed at discovery” is the part that matters: a card’s delay never moves again afterwards. It says what that listing cost on that day, not what the radar is worth today.
The one tile on the header you want at zero: “Vestiaire asked us to slow down, or did not answer. A rising figure means listings are getting past us.”It is the radar’s health reading, and nothing else. It says nothing about the quality of your filters.
The three switches of a Vestiaire filter. They are not criteria: they decide what happens after a listing has been kept.Autobuy’s help text states its own limit, and that is deliberate: “As soon as a listing matches, rega reserves an account, fills the basket and prepares the payment — then warns you. You are the one who confirms with your bank: without your confirmation, nothing is charged.”
A filter with no criterion at all keeps everything, and the screen says so before you save: “With no constraint, this filter will keep every listing.”
Two counters, two moments.
  • “On Vestiaire right now” is the form’s preview: how many listings answer your criteria at this instant, at the marketplace. It is there to help you write the filter, not to judge it.
  • The “hits” on a filter’s row are what that filter has actually kept since, with the mention last {quand}.
The preview does not count your keywords, and it admits it: “Keywords are not counted here: they are checked at detection time, against the title and the description.” A wide preview and zero hits is therefore a normal state when a keyword is narrow.
When the preview returns zero, it gives the most frequent cause instead of leaving you to search: “No listing matches these criteria. Most often, two category levels contradict each other.”
The floor below which Vestiaire refuses an offer. An item’s panel sums it up: Price {price} · minimum offer {min}.The window always names where that floor came from, and the two sentences are not worth the same thing:The amount is typed in whole euros, and the slider moves one euro at a time.
The floor rises to your own amount, and never comes back down. The warning sits above the button, before the gesture: “The minimum rises permanently to your amount: after an offer at −10 %, you can no longer go down to −30 %. Aim right the first time.” Offering at −10 % takes −30 % off the table for good.
An offer covers the item alone: “Your offer covers the item only. Shipping and fees are added at payment time, and the gap is not fixed — the basket total is what counts.”
The Vestiaire buying tunnel reads in its buttons, and only one of them costs money.Two more words complete the family when a payment stays open: “Resume” finishes it, “Cancel payment” closes it and empties the basket.
Preparing empties first the account’s Vestiaire basket, and the product asks before it does: “Preparing this purchase from {compte} first removes everything sitting in its Vestiaire basket. No payment is triggered.”
On Vinted a purchase belongs to an item. Here the basket belongs to the account: one purchase at a time, preparing empties whatever was in it, and the map of pick-up points cannot be drawn at all unless something is in it.That single fact explains the refusal you are most likely to meet — “A purchase is already under way on this account.” — and the banner that brings a waiting payment back to you, on the dashboard and on the Vestiaire screen. → Buying on Vestiaire.
A Vestiaire account carries one state out of six, in this reading order — the first true one wins:A Vestiaire connection is worth 30 days and does not roll over: after a reconnection, the screen announces “Connected. The connection is to be renewed in 30 days.”The “Check” button exists because a connection can be whole for browsing and refused for paying. Its verdict is plain: “Connected — this account can buy.”, or “This account cannot buy. {detail}”.
“to be renewed soon” asks nothing of you. The account will buy this evening exactly as it bought this morning. It is a forecast, not a fault.
The three values each of the five health points of a Vestiaire account can take: Connection, Delivery address, Saved card, Delivery method, Pick-up point. They read in that order, which is the order in which you unblock them.It is not a score: all five have to be green for the screen to write “This account can buy”. Short of that, it writes “This account will not buy” — and each point carries its own gesture, with a “Fix →” link.
A point that was inferred rather than checked again is marked as such: “Inferred from what we knew — not checked again.” The screen would rather say it than let you believe in a check that never happened.
The share Vestiaire takes from the buyer. The word has no equivalent on Vinted, and it reads in two places: on a sale’s row, buyer fees {m}, and in the watchlist, next to the price excluding fees.The tooltip says exactly what it is, and above all what it is not: “The marketplace charged this amount to the buyer ON TOP of the seller’s price ({hors}). This is not a discount.”
Those fees are already included in a listing’s displayed price. What is added on top is postage and, outside the European Union, customs — an item displayed at €34.00 was billed €102.12 in the basket during one measurement.
A listing number does not say which marketplace it belongs to. The same number can exist on Vinted and on Vestiaire Collective.That is why everything following an item carries its marketplace beside its number, and why you read the tag Listing seen on {place} on sales, on the watchlist and in the feed. It is also why a Vestiaire sale alert has no link to the item: the number it would use opens a real, unrelated listing on the other marketplace. → Following what sells.
A watched Vestiaire item carries two figures a Vinted one does not: the price excluding fees — what the seller takes home — and the buyer fees. The price shown is their sum. Both are absent on Vinted, which is correct rather than missing: the concept does not exist there in this shape.

​
The words of reshipping

Reshipping is a service of its own, on its own site, with its own navigation and its own language switch. Seven destinations — “Dashboard”, “To review”, “Warehouse”, “Parcels”, “Disputes”, “Addresses”, “How it works” — four of which fit in a phone’s bottom bar, the other three under “More”. Almost nothing in its vocabulary comes from the rest of the product — and the two words that do, carrier and check, do not mean here what they mean anywhere else. One reading rule governs all of it: an item carries three independent facts, and they never merge. Where the goods are, what you answered, what we obtained.
Where the goods are (“In warehouse”), what you answered (“Issue reported”) and what we obtained (“Dispute rejected”) are three independent facts, and all three can be true at the same moment. That exact combination is an ordinary situation: the item is on our shelf, you did flag something, and the claim did not succeed.Fusing the three into one status would produce a couple of hundred labels, almost none of which ever happen — and it would make the real combinations unsayable. Reading them as one progress bar is the fastest way to misread a sheet. → Your warehouse.
Where the goods are, and nothing else.
The Warehouse screen shows only the four states where the goods are with us — Received, Review pending, In warehouse, In a parcel. What has left is followed from the Parcels screen, not from the warehouse.
“Review pending” is the only state that commits you. It is the moment, and the only one, where a clock runs against you.
The second axis: what you answered to the inspection.
Silence counts as approval, never as a dispute. The screen warns you beforehand: “With no reply from you, the item will be approved automatically and enter the warehouse.” And approving is irreversible.
The third axis: what we obtained from the marketplace.
It is the outcome of the dispute that decides the fate of the goods: two outcomes out of three leave it in the warehouse, only one sends it back to the seller.
The verdict of an inspection, in three values and not two.Three and not two, deliberately: “Matches the listing” and “Major defect” would be enough to decide, but not to say. A missing tag deserves to be reported without pushing you towards a claim you would lose.Each defect found also carries a type — nineteen are provided for, from “Stain” to “Authenticity in doubt” — and a severity: “Minor” / “Major” / “Deal-breaking” (Mineur / Majeur / Rédhibitoire).
A named defect is clickable: it takes you back to its photo, at the exact spot where it was pinned. Naming a defect without showing where it is would force you to search through ten photos.
Of the nine states an item goes through, exactly one expects a gesture: “Review pending” — “Look at the photos and tell us whether everything is fine.” Everything else is us working, or your goods waiting.The countdown on that screen is ours, not the marketplace’s, and it closes earlier: a claim is written and filed by a person, inside working hours. If the marketplace’s window ends at three in the morning, the recourse died at eight the previous evening. → Checks and photos.
A parcel with us is not a seller’s parcel: it is a box we make up, with its reference and its quote.
A paid parcel does not become editable again: “This parcel is paid: its contents can no longer change. To modify it, cancel it and start a new one.” A paid quote describes a set of contents; letting them move would send out something other than what was billed.
Cancelling a parcel loses nothing: “Cancel this parcel? The items go back to your warehouse.”
A quote is a firm price, for one carrier, payable for seven days — Valid until {date}. Several quotes for one parcel are the rule, not the exception: you compare two or three side by side.The lines a quote can carry, in the order they appear:Three pills help you choose: “Cheapest”, “Fastest”, “Tracking included”; the button reads “Choose this carrier”, and the quote you retain then carries “Chosen”.
A line at zero is not shown, except Shipping and Payment fees, the only two always true. That last one carries its explanation in plain words: “These are the fees taken by our payment provider, passed on unchanged.”
An expired quote has no button at all — not greyed out, not a trap. It carries its sentence: “This quote has expired. Request a new one.”
Days spent in the warehouse, counted per day started and per item. The counter does not start on arrival: it starts when the item enters the warehouse — by your reply to the inspection, by the reply deadline passing in silence, or by a dispute being closed on that item. The days spent waiting for your reply are ours. A closed dispute starts a counter only for an item that had never entered the warehouse — it restarts none, and the days an item spent under claim count like any others.
The silent path is the one we always write to you about: an email headed “Approved without a reply”, which carries the number of free days with it.
An item’s total is capped at €50.00, and the tiers add up instead of replacing one another. The screen’s sentence holds the lot: “The first {n} days are free. After that, fees accrue per day and per item, and are settled when you ship.”
With no shipment, a piece eventually joins the list of possible abandonments — after 180 days. An item’s sheet has a sentence for it, “Without a shipment before {date}, this item will be treated as abandoned.”, and the dated warning you can rely on is the “Abandonment approaching” block on the Warehouse screen.
Nothing is taken as you go: the fees are settled with the shipment. Asking for three quotes does not bill you three times.
There are exactly two fixed fees, and each has a name of its own: the “Consolidation fee” — a flat €10.00 per parcel, one item or twelve — and the €5.00 asked when you open a dispute, charged separately and only while a claim can still be filed.Everything else on a bill is carrier shipping, something you ticked, storage, or the payment provider’s cut. → What reshipping does for you.
One figure, two jobs. The declared value is what you write on the parcel: it feeds the customs declaration, and it is the base the insurance is priced on if you ask for it.Insurance is optional, and off until you switch it on: the premium is 3 % of that value, never less than €2.00 and never more than €60.00 — and it is never computed on more than €2,000.00.
Ticking insurance without giving a value is refused, and that is deliberate: “State the value to insure.” At zero, you would be paying the floor for cover of nothing.
That €2,000.00 caps the amount the premium is computed on — it is not a promise to pay out. And the declared value itself is never clipped: it also goes onto the customs declaration. Customs and insurance says what is written and what is not.
Two documents, two audiences.
  • The “Packing slip” is the sheet that travels inside the box: contents, weights, dimensions, options, declared value. It opens at any state of the parcel, draft included.
  • “Share tracking” creates a link you can give to anyone. Its help text, shown before the button, states its exact scope: “A link you can give to someone: it only shows tracking, never the contents or the price.”
Stopping the sharing is irreversible. The link already sent stops working, and sharing again afterwards gives a new one — the old one never comes back.
It is the reading rule of the whole service: “—” means we do not know, and “€0.00” or “Free” means it genuinely costs nothing. Neither is ever printed in place of the other, on a screen or on the packing slip.The same discipline explains a second habit: no button is ever greyed out. One that cannot act dims, stays clickable, and clicking it writes the reason beside it — “Add at least one item.”, “Choose a delivery address.”, “Choose a carrier first.”
The Free for {n} more days counter does not start when your parcel lands. It starts when the item enters the warehouse — which happens by your reply to the inspection, by the reply deadline passing in silence, or by a dispute being closed on that item. And the silent path is the one we always write to you about: an email headed “Approved without a reply”, which carries the number of free days with it. → Storage and what it costs.
Rows of identical matte tiles on a dark background, a single one lit in green

Rows of identical tiles, and only one of them lit. Two words can be spelled the same way and name two different things.

​
The words that look alike and do not mean the same thing

This is the most useful section on the page. Every line is a confusion with a real cost.
The only thing they share is the word. A group of filters buys nothing; a group of accounts detects nothing.
They carry the same hint — “Cap per item” — in two different places, and they are not the same caps.
  • The one in the AUTOBUY panel starts at €120 and is only kept in this browser. Another machine, another browser, a private window: it goes back to 120.
  • The one on a filter’s card — the “€ max” field — follows your REGA account everywhere, and that is the one that bounds that filter’s automatic buying.
The control gesture: Filters screen → “Autobuy first” sort → re-read the caps column row by row. Anything showing “no cap” will buy whatever the price.
  • “Automatic pick-up point” (Settings → BUYING) is on from the start and required in practice: turned off, the purchase fails — “No pick-up point could be selected for this order.”
  • “PREPARE THIS CARRIER” (Accounts screen) is optional: it is a real purchase of a few euros that saves ~1.3 s on later purchases with that carrier.
One prevents a failure, the other saves seconds. Never replace the first with the second.
  • A detection is a discovery: a listing that is born and passes a filter. It arrives once, and it is timestamped.
  • A check is a re-reading: REGA reopens an item you already watch to see its price and availability, every 15 minutes.
The statistics count the former. The watchlist counts the latter.
  • “Table” is a feed layout, next to “Wall” and “Folder”.
  • “Dashboard” is also the name of a tab on the Sales screen — “The tracking aggregates”.
  • “Dashboard” is the name of the home screen in the sidebar, in English as in French. On a phone, that same screen is called “Feed”.
Three uses, one word. Context is enough to tell them apart — provided you know they exist.
  • In filters and accounts, “marketplace” means Vinted or Vestiaire Collective. In French, the product says “place”.
  • In Settings → Subscription, {n} seats available. counts team seats. In French, the product says “places” — the same word as marketplace.
English lifts an ambiguity that French carries. That is a good reason to know both columns of this page.
  • “Being checked” — Vinted is reviewing a listing. The purchase queues up and goes out on its own.
  • “Check” — a login step for an account, on the Accounts screen.
  • “To confirm (48 h)” — the state of a delivered order that you have to confirm on Vinted.
Three completely different moments in the life of a purchase.
  • The Vinted radar is read in Settings — “Active — the radar is sweeping” — and what it looks for is “Your filters.”
  • The Vestiaire radar has a button of its own on its own screen, “Arm the radar”, and among its tiles it counts one thing the Vinted radar has no equivalent for: “watch rounds”.
They are two separate watches, not one watch covering two sites: starting one does nothing for the other, and each is read where it lives.
The same word, two very different amounts of trust — and it is the costliest confusion between the two marketplaces.On Vestiaire you have 15 minutes to confirm with your bank, and doing nothing drops the purchase with nothing charged. Nothing on that second path can reach the step that charges a card. → Buying on Vestiaire.
The practical consequence is one sentence: an armed Vestiaire Autobuy and a client who does not answer give zero purchases, and that is normal. An armed Vinted AUTOBUY and an absent client give a paid purchase.
No cap is armed on the Vestiaire path, by an explicit and repeated decision — not on a purchase, not on an offer. The upper bound in the offer window is the marketplace’s own, never a guardrail of ours.What replaces the constraint is visibility: the basket total, delivery included is written on every purchase that waits for you, and it is the only figure the product ever quotes there.
  • On Vinted, a sale is reconstructed: the listing disappears, and “a sale and a withdrawal produce the same signal”. Hence the “Removed” status, and a “Sold” tab that only shows what carries Vinted’s sale marker.
  • On Vestiaire Collective, the marketplace says it: a sold listing keeps its page and carries a sale date, while a withdrawn listing answers that it is no longer available. Sold and withdrawn are two different answers, never the same one.
The consequence is visible on screen: on a Vestiaire sale, sold in {d} is a measured duration — both dates come from the marketplace, not from our checking rhythm.
Same word, different machinery.
  • On Vinted, “Automatic pick-up point” is a setting, on from the start, and it must stay that way: turned off, the purchase fails.
  • On Vestiaire, there is no equivalent setting but a map, and it has a counter-intuitive condition: it can only be drawn once the purchase has been prepared. Before that, the marketplace returns no point at all, without an error — which reads, wrongly, as “there is nothing near you”.
  • In reshipping, the word does not exist: your parcel goes to an address you saved in “Your addresses”.
A second trap on Vestiaire: “no point near here” and “this order does not ship to a pick-up point” are not the same thing, and they do not call for the same gesture. The second one is common: plenty of orders ship to your address only.
  • On Vinted, “It is the seller who chooses the carrier, not you” — which is the entire reason “PREPARE THIS CARRIER” exists.
  • In reshipping, the carrier is one of the offers on your quote, and choosing one commits you to nothing until you pay.
In both places, a carrier’s name is never translated: it is a brand, not a word.
Two more meanings, on top of the three above.
  • “Check”, on a Vestiaire account, is a button. It probes a buying page and answers “Connected — this account can buy.” — because a connection can be whole for browsing and refused for paying.
  • “checks”, in reshipping, are inspections: the queue counts them, {n} checks shown out of {total}. The most urgent are first.
Neither has anything to do with a watchlist reading, or with Vinted reviewing a listing.
  • On Vinted and on Vestiaire Collective, a parcel is the one a seller sends you. You choose neither its packing nor, on Vinted, its carrier.
  • In reshipping, a parcel is a box we make up for you: you decide its contents, its packing options and its carrier, it carries a reference, a quote, a packing slip, and it goes through eight states.
The first one arrives at your door; the second, you compose.
Two gestures that follow one another, and that people take for one.
  • Reporting is always possible, always free, and always recorded. The item does not even change state: it stays at “Review pending”.
  • Opening a dispute is the claim we then file with the marketplace. It costs €5.00, and it is only due while the recourse window is still open.
Out of time, you can still report, and the product says so plainly: “The claim window has closed: there is no dispute left to open, and nothing to pay. You can still report the problem to us.”→ The exact border is in When something is wrong.
The Orders screen knows nothing about Vestiaire Collective. A purchase there ends on the sentence “The payment has been requested.”, and from that point it lives in your Vestiaire account: no history, and no state read back.In reshipping, what the marketplace calls an order becomes an item on a shelf. Two words for the same purchase, on purpose: one describes a transaction, the other describes a thing we are holding for you.

Which “group” do you need?

Our advice

1

Make the “Autobuy first” sort your weekly inspection

Filters screen → “Autobuy first”. Every armed filter comes to the top. Re-read the caps column: each “no cap” is a filter that will buy whatever the price. It is the most profitable control gesture in the product, and it takes thirty seconds.
2

Read the regime pill before concluding that a filter is slow

“widened” is not a fault: it is the price of a criterion that does not arrive with the listing. Open the filter, read What slows it down: {liste}., then add a brand or a keyword — the product announces the way out itself: “with a brand or a keyword, this criterion becomes immediate again”.
3

Name your groups like aisles, not like folders

A group creates a Dashboard sub-page: its name becomes a tab you will read a hundred times a day. “Leather goods” or “Sneakers 42” read at a glance; “Group 2” never does.
4

Clear the “things to sort out before buying” counter before arming anything

That counter, on an account’s card, is the only one that predicts a failure before it costs you an item. Until it reads “Ready to buy”, the sentence beside it is final: “A purchase would stop before payment.”
5

Tell “Already used” from “Ready” on your carriers

Both look reassuring; only one is. “Already used” means Vinted did not offer a point again at the last purchase: a point will be chosen on the spot, {gain} more. Only “Ready” saves those ~1.3 s.
6

Prepare the carrier your sellers use most, first

The seller chooses — so preparing widens the share of your purchases that save time, never the gain. Look at your recent orders, spot the carrier that keeps coming back, prepare that one first.
7

Learn the four short words of the phone

On a small screen, the bottom bar keeps only four tabs, and they change name: Feed, Filters, Orders, Tracked. They are exactly the same screens as Dashboard, Filters, Orders and Watchlist. The rest lives under “More”.
8

Use the language switch as a dictionary

Changing REGA’s language moves nothing: not your filters, not your caps, not your scopes. If an English word leaves you in doubt, switch, read the French word, switch back. It is also what makes the product usable by a French-speaking employee without duplicating anything.

​
What surprises people

The word describes how listings arrive, not how many: “they arrive in batches, at a regular interval”. A “widened” filter keeps no more and no fewer items than a “fast” one — it shows them in waves instead of showing them at birth.
Opening one feed too many does not switch it off. The product writes it twice: “There is no room left on screen; it carries on detecting and counting.” Your counters stay right even when the band is no longer visible.
You would expect nothing set to mean nothing goes out. It is the opposite: “Without a setting of its own, a feed group follows the general feed: it still buys.”
Not the filters — “The group’s filters are kept, they go back to having no group” — and not the accounts: Group deleted — {nom} · the accounts are kept. A group is storage, not a container.
When a price is there but cannot be read as a number, a cap that is set refuses the purchase instead of attempting it. That is deliberate: buying on a figure nobody could read is how a cap gets stepped over. Conversely, a filter with no cap has nothing to check — and buys.
The item exists, it simply cannot be bought yet. A purchase started now joins the queue and goes out on its own: “the purchase starts as soon as they are cleared”. Many buyers walk away at that moment — you do not have to.
The product refuses to guess: “a sale and a withdrawal produce the same signal”. That is why there is a “Removed” status, and why the “Sold” tab only shows what carries Vinted’s sale marker, “no caveat”.
On a large screen, the sidebar says “Dashboard” and the button says “+ Feed”, in French as in English — because a feed is an object of the product, not a translation. But the phone tab says “Feed” in English and “Flux” in French. Both words point at the same screen.

​
On a phone, the words get shorter

rega's dashboard on a phone screen

The dashboard on a phone. The bottom bar keeps only four tabs — and two of them change name.

Below 900 px wide, the sidebar disappears and gives way to a bottom bar of four tabs. The labels there are shorter — it is the only place in the product where the vocabulary changes word for the same screen. The four remaining screens — Accounts, Sales, Stats, Settings — live under the “More” button, in a sheet titled “NAVIGATION”.
Two feed layouts are not offered on a small screen, and the refusal is written: “On a phone there is only one layout.” → REGA on your phone.
Reshipping has a thumb bar of its own. It lives on its own site, so it carries its own navigation: below 900 px, its seven destinations become four tabs — Dashboard, To review, Warehouse, Parcels — and a “More” button holding Disputes, Addresses and How it works. Unlike the main product, not one of the four changes name. → Your first parcel.

​
The limit of this glossary

This dictionary covers what a client sees: REGA’s eight main screens, the Vestiaire Collective screen, and the seven destinations of reshipping. It also covers only what is written on a screen — the words of the product, in both of its languages. Here is where it stops.
  • The administration console. It has a vocabulary of its own — composing a verdict, issuing a quote, setting a rate card — and its button does not appear on your account.
  • The words Vinted and Vestiaire use themselves. We quote the ones that reach your screens. The rest belongs to their sites, and they change it without telling us.
  • What does not exist yet, and therefore has no word. Every page of this guide ends on its own gaps.
The words a marketplace uses are not ours. “Never worn”, “Exotic leather”, the labels on a Vinted listing, the names — or the absence of names — on a size scale: those belong to Vestiaire and to Vinted, and we serve them as they stand rather than tidy them into something you could not check against the site. The costliest example is “From Europe”, which is the marketplace’s own grouping of 29 countries: it leaves out Denmark and the Netherlands. If you want either of them, tick it by hand rather than rely on the group. A carrier’s name is never translated, on either marketplace or in reshipping. It is a brand, not a word. And a word does not carry from one world to the other. Radar, Filter, Autobuy, Check, Pick-up point all exist twice and mean two different things; “parcel” does not name the same object in reshipping — “The words that look alike and do not mean the same thing” is the list. The choice of marketplace is made when a filter is created, and “This choice cannot be changed later.”
