What I Wish I Knew Before Using Vendoo: A Real Reseller’s Review

When I first started using Vendoo, I was desperate to stop wasting time copying listings from one platform to another. Everyone talked about how it made reselling easier, but no one really told me the full picture—what it’s great at, where it could improve, and how to make the most of it without getting overwhelmed. So if you're thinking about signing up or you're just getting started, here’s what I wish I knew going in.

1. It’s Not Magic, But It’s Really Efficient

Vendoo saves a lot of time, but you still need to do the work. When I started, I expected it to completely automate my listings. Instead, it streamlines the process, helps you stay organized, and cuts out the repetitive stuff—but it’s not “set it and forget it.” You still need solid listings and consistent activity. That said, I went from listing on one or two platforms to four with very little extra effort, and that was huge.

2. The Learning Curve is Quick (But You Should Start Small)

I tried to use every feature right away, and honestly, that was overwhelming. If I could go back, I’d start by just importing a few listings, crossposting them, and getting used to the dashboard first. There’s inventory management, analytics, delisting tools—it’s amazing, but it’s best to layer on slowly.

3. The Import Feature is a Lifesaver (Most of the Time)

Vendoo lets you import listings from marketplaces you already use, which is super helpful. Just know that depending on the platform, you may need to tweak a few fields or re-upload images. Still, it cuts down on so much busywork. I now import from Poshmark and then push listings to eBay and Mercari in one sitting.

4. Analytics Help You Sell Smarter

I used to list randomly and hope for the best. Vendoo’s sales data showed me which platforms actually perform and what categories move fastest. I never expected to care about this kind of data, but it helped me stop wasting time on platforms that weren’t converting for my niche.

5. It’s Worth Paying For—Once You Hit Your Groove

I started with the free plan and quickly hit the limit. When I upgraded, it paid for itself in a week from crosslisted sales. You can choose plans based on how many listings you need per month, so it’s flexible, but it only really pays off if you’re consistently listing and selling.

Final Thoughts

Vendoo isn’t perfect, but I genuinely wish I had started using it earlier. It makes reselling feel more manageable, especially if you’re doing this alongside a full-time job, school, or life in general. The key is starting slow, learning the features that matter most to you, and using it as a tool—not a crutch.
