Issue: Vinted Listings Slow
Symptoms: Vinted listings take very long to create

This is normal - Vinted has no API
Expect 1-2 minutes per listing
Don't create too many at once (rate limiting)
Check Vinted for CAPTCHA challenges
Ensure Vinted credentials are up to date
See: How to Connect Vinted for session management
Issue: Account Suspended
Symptoms: Marketplace reports FLUF accessing account
Solutions:
Platforms allow third-party tools via OAuth
