AN Amazon shopper made a surprising discovery after purchasing a sweater from the site.
The fashion fan found the exact same item available from Shein for considerably less.
In her video, Bri (@bri4nn4.mp4) explained: “So I decided to order this sweater from Amazon, I saw this girl wearing it and I thought it was cute.
“It was $44 on Amazon and I was like ‘OK, that’s fine’ and then I read the comments.”
The TikToker showed her audience the beige mock-neck sweater with long sleeves.
In the reviews, Amazon shoppers criticized the sweater’s thin material for its price point.
Bri decided to “do a little digging” and after a reverse image search, she discovered what she originally thought was a dupe on Shein.
However, after ordering the $14 sweater, she discovered it was almost identical to the Amazon item.
In fact, she revealed that the Shein product was of slightly better quality.
“I actually think that it’s thinner and the material is not as great,” she said as she held up the Amazon sweater.
Bri then showed her followers a close-up of the tags on each of the sweaters.
“Looks to me that the Shein tag has just been cut off,” she told her followers.
“I’ll definitely be returning this one, bye Amazon,” Bri explained.
She concluded: “It just goes to show you should be reverse image searching all of your items before you buy them on Amazon because somebody is probably up charging you a ton of money.”
In a second clip, Bri modeled the Shein sweater with a pair of gray plaid pants.
TikTok users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on Bri’s discovery.
“Every time I see something on Amazon I want I always search for it on Shein and usually find it cheaper,” wrote one viewer.
Another follower said: “This has happened to me so many times and I even caught them forgetting to cut off the Shein tag once.”
“I have noticed this! Everyone buys bulk on Shein and triples prices,” commented a third person.
