“I bought a box of lost parcels from Royal Mail,” she wrote.
“Worth it?”
It’s important to note that mystery boxes are just that – a mystery, so there’s no way of knowing what you’ll get inside or if it’s worth the money.
But it seemed that for most of the contents, Becky got lucky after spending £106 on the box.
She first saw a Stone Island hoodie and was excited to open it as they cost around £275.
Liam Gallagher and even politician Sir Keir Starmer have been photographed wearing Stone Island gear.
But the bargain hunter was devastated to discover it was fake and then moved to the next package containing £69 Sassy Saints nail set.
The discovery meant that Becky had already received half of her money back.
Becky also arrested a murder Drones Teddy, which retails for £5, alongside a highly sought-after pair of navy and blue Adidas Spezial trainers, which retail for £90 but are constantly sold out.
The pair of shoes were a UK size 7.5 and didn’t fit Becky, so she would probably sell them and make a profit from the mystery box.
She then picked up a ‘random’ pair of pink-rimmed glasses worth £4 and a light gray sweater from Lily Silk, which retails for £225.
Becky then discovered two Gucci monogram style bags, but unfortunately they were fake, the brand’s original accessories can sell for over £1,000.
The next item of clothing was a white Represent hoodie with black graphic writing, which has a recommended retail price of £159.
Becky also got two black Longchamp bags – which usually cost £120 – but she questioned the authenticity of the products, as well as a Michael Kors Mirella Logo Tote bag, which retails for around £120 online.
Where to find mystery boxes
MYSTERY boxes are becoming increasingly popular, with people interested in taking a chance on purchasing one. But where can you get one?
Charity stores
Many charity shops have started putting together mystery boxes as a way of getting rid of stock that they would otherwise be unable to sell. While you can never guarantee what you will receive, these boxes are usually cheaper than those purchased elsewhere.
eBay
Many retailers use eBay to sell their inventory, with options on the auction site including unclaimed baggage or package returns all bundled together in a mystery box. It’s not like a normal ‘auction’ though – there will usually be a buy now price, so it’s like any other internet transaction.
Online retailers
As the popularity of mystery boxes increases, other retailers have begun selling them in hopes that they will be a hit with customers. Take a look at sites like Amazon, Etsy, and Wowcher, and you’ll often find that mystery boxes are also listed by genre.
If there’s a specific niche mystery box you’re looking for, it’s always worth seeking it out. There are so many websites out there that sell mystery boxes that you will undoubtedly find what you are looking for.
As with purchasing anything online, make sure you buy from a reputable retailer and a secure website.
The knowledgeable woman also unpacked random items like a replica Champions League trophy oil for hair loss and a portable vaporizer.
Becky revealed that she bought the box of lost packages from Unboxing Heaven.
The total value of her box was around £866 – £922, meaning Becky made a profit of at least £760.
The clip went viral on his TikTok account @beckysbazaar with more than 273 thousand views and 5,000 likes.
Viewers quickly asked Becky to sell the products for them.
One person wrote: “The shoes!!!!!!!!”
Another commented: “Bargains!”
“I feel like if I did that I would be rubbish,” wrote a third.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: “We need to get into this.”
“Sell me the shoes,” said a fifth.
Someone else added: “OMG I need the specials.”
