UK Teacher Leaves £43,000 Post as Vinted Resale Venture Matches Her Pay

Her disciplined, multi-platform approach now matches her former salary, improving family flexibility.

Overview

  • Jess Morton says she has generated about £30,000 in 10 months, averaging roughly £3,000 a month, with £4,300 reported in just 16 days this month.
  • She began by listing clothes after significant weight loss in October 2024, expanded to eBay, Depop and Whatnot in December, resigned in May and has sold full time since July.
  • She reports budgeting £500–£700 a month for stock, buying bundles from wholesalers and pricing items such as Y2K denim at £18–£25 and vintage Nike/Adidas at £25–£40.
  • Morton cites unsustainable workload and administrative demands in teaching and says reselling gives her control of hours and time with her children.
  • Local outlets agree on her earnings and operations but differ on whether she has taken a rented business unit, with some saying she has and others saying she is still working from home.
