Can customers sell and buy items on Shopify like Vinted?

[Chylo]

Hey there!

Does anyone know if Shopify allows a  customer to customer type marketplace? Something similar to Vinted's business model where customer can sell their own items, but also purchase items from other customers

I have seen a multi vendor marketplace add on, however I'm not sure users will be able to purchase items if set up as a "supplier"

Many thanks!

Hello,
I am also interested in this topic. Is there a way to create a kind of escrow account with a Shopify merchant account? 
In the same cart, a buyer orders and pays:
- for  item 1, the payment is on hold, the payment is released the seller after the buyer receives the item 1. (C2C marketplace)
- for a item 2,  the payment is sent to the merchant account. (standard ecommerce journey)
Thanks

While I'm not 100% sure about the specific add-on you mentioned... I can assure you that Shopify is a highly versatile platform that offers a wide range of features and options for online businesses. They do have a multi-vendor marketplace add-on called Marketplace that might be worth exploring further.

If you're looking for more customization and control over your marketplace,, working with an online marketplace development company could be a fantastic solution. They can help tailor the platform to your unique needs and ensure a seamless customer experience.

Also interested in this option. Lots of multi-vendor options available, but they're all b2c focussed like Amazon. I'm looking to create a c2c marketplace like ebay, vinted etc. User has one account that allows them to buy & sell.

Hello, 

I recommend this plugin called Shipturtle. I have used it for my client's clothing store. 

The C2C functionality is an add-on feature which can be purchased for around $50. All you need is an active Shopify website and a subscription to ShipTurtle's basic plan. Find Shipturtle here. https://apps.shopify.com/shipturtle

Users on my website can now be both suppliers and buyers. 

I hope this is what you're looking for. 

Thanks.

Hi, 

I can think of this plugin called Shipturtle. I have used it on my client's clothing store sometime back. 

It offers C2C functionality as an add-on for less than $50. 

All you need is an active Shopify website and a subscription to Shipturtle's basic plan. 

Hope that helps!

Hi, 

Try ShipTurtle. It's available on the App Store. I have used it before in my client's clothing store. 

They provide C2C functionality as an add-on for about $50. All you need is a subscription to their basic plan and of course, an active Shopify store.

Hope that helps!
