Verdict: which one has fewer problems?

Across the latest 600 App Store reviews we collected, Vinted has the lowest share of reviews with a complaint (8%) and eBay the highest (76%). The biggest single difference is in bug complaints: 31% of eBay reviews mention them, vs 4% for Vinted. Each app's own biggest complaint theme: Vinted, pricing / subscription (14 reviews); eBay, bugs (93 reviews). Average star rating in the samples ranges from 1.4★ (eBay) to 4.61★ (Vinted). Time span of each sample: Vinted 4 days (2026-10-19 to 2026-10-22); eBay 315 days (2025-12-12 to 2026-10-22). Because Vinted's sample covers a much shorter period, a single recent update or outage weighs more heavily in its numbers. Samples that reach back many months (fewer reviews per day) show long-running issues rather than the effect of one recent update.
