Цю інформацію вже спростував заступник начальника Департаменту патрульної поліції Олексій Білошицький. У своєму […]

I’ve made £18k on Vinted – my photos always stand out and it’s all about NOT taking them on a white background

A RESELLER who has made over £18,000 on Vinted has shared the genius tip she swears by to ensure her pictures always stand out.

Maisie regularly shares her tips and tricks with others on her TikTok page, and recently shared a clip explaining why she’s now opting against using a white background for her pictures to list on the selling app.

Instead, she’s chosen to take them on a grey background – and it’s working a treat.

“If you look at this grey background, the colour of this dress just shows up so much nicer,” Maisie said in the video.

“In terms of colour theory and on the colour wheel, grey is actually a neutral background, while white and black absorb all the colours.

“So to get an accurate representation of the colour, a grey background is apparently the best for photography.

“And obviously as resellers we want to make sure that we’re getting the most accurate and the most professional pictures for our listings!”

Maisie showed how she has been hanging her items against a grey wall for the pictures, but said that “lots of people have just a grey sheet of fabric, rug, whatever”.

And in the comments section, lots of viewers said they were keen to test out the hack themselves.

“Guess who is painting their wall grey now,” one said.

“Are you painting right now?” Maisie asked.

To which the person then replied: “Hahaha no! I did however check under my stairs and check what paint I had.

“THEN I texted my fella and woke him up asking if he still had any grey paint. He was not impressed!”

“That makes sense!” another added.

“I’ve got grey walls all around my house, just white doors.

“I need a hook on my wall now lol, thank you.”

“That actually makes so much sense,” a third agreed.

“That’s it I’m going grey lol!”

New Vinted rules to be aware of

IF you fancy clearing out your wardrobe and getting rid of your old stuff on Vinted, you’ll need to consider the new rules that recently came into play.

If people are selling personal items for less than they paid new (which is generally the case for second-hand sales), there is no impact on tax.

However, since January 1, digital platforms, including eBay, Airbnb, Etsy, Amazon and Vinted, must share seller information with HMRC as part of a crackdown.

You’re unlikely to be affected if you only sell a handful of second-hand items online each year – generally, only business sellers trading for profit might need to pay tax.

A tax-free allowance of £1,000 has been in place since 2017 for business sellers trading for profit – the only time that an individual personal item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is a profit from the sale.

However, firms now have to pass on your data to HMRC if you sell 30 or more items a year or earn over £1,700.

It is part of a wider tax crackdown to help ensure that those who boost their income via side hustles pay up what they owe.

While your data won’t be shared with HMRC if you earn between £1,000 and £1,700, you’ll still need to pay tax as normal.

“We’re all going grey!” Maisie laughed in response.

“I’ll have to paint a grey feature wall in my dining room now,” someone else joked.

While Sam, the Unbusy Bee, who was the first one to share the clever trick, added: “Perfectly explained!”

Thomas Frank is Daniel Levy’s biggest gamble yet after 13 managers in 25 years at Tottenham following Postecoglou axe

DANIEL LEVY was never going to win a popularity contest among the Tottenham fanbase.

But after his drastic action over the last week, he is now well and truly under the pump, as Ange Postecoglou might have put it.

Chairman Levy already had thousands of Spurs supporters taking to the streets to protest against his running of the club last season.

Yet since then he has ruthlessly sacked the man who delivered the club’s first trophy in 17 years and who gave many fans their greatest night following the team.

And he has replaced that man with a head coach in Thomas Frank who, for all the wonders he worked at Brentford, has no track record of delivering major honours.

It is the 13th hiring-and-firing of Levy’s 25-year Tottenham tenure — and his biggest gamble yet.

Fans already accused the 63-year-old of failing to place winning silverware at the top of his priority list.

Axing Aussie Big Ange just 16 days after he masterminded their Europa League triumph over Manchester United in Bilbao to finally lift Spurs’ trophy curse will only amplify that perspective.

Whether the views of many on Levy and the club’s ownership are too entrenched to be altered by now is hugely debatable.

But if this latest shove on the managerial revolving door in N17 goes badly, then the bad feeling towards the board could reach new decibel levels.

Frank, 51, will receive plenty of goodwill from many fans, who will respect how he had the Bees regularly overachieving during his near seven-year reign.

But they will also be extending a word of warning to the friendly Dane over his new employer and half expecting him to be out on his ear in less than two years — because that is what usually happens.

As a statement following Postecoglou’s sacking from protest group Change for Tottenham read: “The real issue is not who wears the tracksuit but who holds the power.

“Daniel Levy and ENIC have now overseen more than two decades of false dawns, short-term thinking and cultural decay.

“The manager may change but the problem stays the same.”

And 59-year-old Postecoglou — should Frank decide to seek out his opinion — will hardly paint a positive picture of his old boss either, having been strung along with radio silence for a fortnight before being cold-bloodedly handed his P45.

In fairness to Levy, making a change was not the easy, crowd-pleasing call.

That would have been sticking with the Australian, given how many of the fanbase — including the thousands that previously wanted Ange out — were now behind him. Nor was it the cheap option either, flying in the face of a consistent criticism in this instance.

Levy and majority owners ENIC have regularly been accused of not splashing the cash to a proportionate degree for their revenue streams.

Critics do not just include disgruntled supporters but current star defender Cristian Romero, who took aim at the board’s lack of investment during a TV interview in December.

Yet they have forked out around £5million to pay off Postecoglou and his staff, along with the £2m bonus the former Celtic boss picked up for his Europa League win.

And they have spent more than £10m on landing Frank, plus his highly rated No 2 Justin Cochrane, fitness coach Chris Haslam and analyst Joe Newton.

Levy believes the pitiful Premier League form under Postecoglou was more important than winning a European trophy.

Spurs finished 17th last season and Levy made his point with reference to “78 points taken from 66 games” in the announcement confirming Postecoglou’s sacking.

Defender Micky van de Ven has already described binning Postecoglou as “a strange decision”, summing up the mood of a squad who were firmly behind the Athens-born boss.

Whether it proves to be the right call or not, only time will tell.

But one thing is for certain, if it does not, the fans will be venting their anger in only one direction.
