Speaking on her YouTube, she said: “Every single one of us has had something lost in the mail, but what happens when an entire shipment of cargo packages gets lost or goes unclaimed?
“They go to an auction where other people can BUY them for SUPER cheap!
“I bought a HUGE mystery box to see what treasures we can find.”
She explained how she headed to BidSpotter.com where she saw the box of clothes up for auction.
After winning the box and picking it up, Hope said: “I got a little bit of a sneak peek and I’m so excited for this.
“Literally every item is brand new with the tags on.”
The first item she opened up was an Essentials hoodie worth $127 (£93), and she also got a $60 (£44) Jordans Nike hoodie, a $90 (£66) Gym + Coffee hoodie and a number of $55 (£40) Princess Polly dresses.
She also got Fabletics joggers that originally cost $69 (£50) and Fenty Savage underwear.

Some of the items were dirty from the transit, and she said she would wash the items she wanted to keep, and donate the clothes she didn’t need.
She said: “In total there was probably about $13,000 (£9,582) worth of stuff in this box.”
Hope said she kept about $3,000 (£2,211) of it, and donated the rest.
