I thought I’d hit the jackpot with Stone Island & Michael Kors goodies in a reclaimed mail haul, then realised my error
SHE knows all too well that taking a gamble doesn’t always pay off.
But savvy shopper Becky decided to take the risk by splashing out on a £100 box of unclaimed mail, to see what she got.

Things started pretty well with a pair of adidas trainers, although sadly they weren’t in Becky’s sizetiktok.com/@beckysbazaar
She couldn’t believe her eyes when she spotted this Stone Island sweatshirttiktok.com/@beckysbazaar
Luckily it had a QR code on it that she could scan – and she found it it was faketiktok.com/@beckysbazaar
And she thought she’d hit the jackpot as soon as she opened it, and saw some well-known brands inside.
Becky began the unveiling of her haul with a cute patterned handbag and a mini backpack in the same design.
Next was a pair of blue light glasses, which Becky was quick to try on.
But it was the next parcel that really got her heart racing – when she spotted the adidas logo.
“I got so excited when I opened this parcel,” she said.
“It was an Adidas box with trainers inside!”
Sadly they weren’t her size, so Becky urged anyone with 7.5 feet to get in touch if they wanted them.
Next was a brand new teddy, as she then said: “This is where things got very interesting!”
She pulled out a brand new black jumper from the coveted brand Stone Island.
“I literally have no idea if it’s real or not,” Becky noted.
But she did say that there was a QR code on the label, so she’d be able to scan it and see.
The ‘designer’ goods continued with some bags that looked like Longchamp, which retail for around £100 in Selfridges.
And there were also backpacks in the same style.
She then began the second part of her video by scanning the QR code on the Stone Island jumper to see if “it was legit or not”.

“Drum roll please everybody,” she said.
“It was fake.
“I don’t know why I sound so happy about that, I was actually kind of sad!”
Where to find mystery boxes
MYSTERY boxes are becoming more and more popular, with people keen to take a gamble in buying one. But where can you get one from?
Charity shops
Lots of charity shops have started putting together mystery boxes as a way to get rid of stock that they’ve been otherwise unable to sell. While you can never guarantee what you’re going to get, these boxes are usually cheaper than ones bought elsewhere.
eBay
Many retailers use eBay to sell their stock, with options on the auction site including unclaimed luggage or parcel returns, all put together in a mystery box. It’s not like a normal ‘auction’ though – there will usually be a buy it now price so it’s just like any other internet transaction.
Online retailers
As the popularity of mystery boxes increases, other retailers have started selling them in the hope that they will be a hit among customers. Have a look on sites such as Amazon, Etsy and Wowcher, and you’ll often find the mystery boxes are listed by genre too.
Google
If there’s a particular niche mystery box you’re looking for, it’s always worth searching for it. There are so many websites out there selling mystery boxes, you’ll undoubtedly find what you’re after.
As with buying anything online, make sure you are purchasing from a trusted retailer and a secure website.
She did manage to get a 100% cashmere jumper from the brand Lily Silk, which are going for £225 on the website.
“How crazy!” she exclaimed.
She then pulled out a bag with the Michael Kors name on the front, but Becky was under no illusion that the bag was “definitely fake, but still cute”.
The next parcel contained a Sassy Saints manicure set, which retail for around £100, followed by a white Represent hoodie which “definitely felt fake but it’s still cute”.
In the next box, Becky found five pairs of sunglasses, before she got to open the one she’d been most excited about.
However, it was somewhat disappointing, as it contained a huge silver cup trophy – which someone pointed out in the comments was a replica Champions League cup.
She concluded the haul with a clothes steamer, a box of hair thinning essential oils, more of the Longchamp dupe bags and a necklace making kit with “chains and charms”.
People were quick to comment on the unboxing, with one writing: “I got my box … loved it !!!”
“I love @Sassy Saints, you’re so lucky!” another gushed.
