A WOMAN has revealed that she bought a huge bundle of lost post packages for just 78p each.
Sarah Grace, a content creator from the US, was left stunned when she looked inside the parcels, only to find a huge range of posh tech gadgets.
Not only did she nab phone cases, even one from Apple, but she also got her hands on a pricey security camera too.
Thrilled with her haul, Sarah took to social media to show others, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting online, Sarah gave her followers a close-up look at her huge pile of lost post packages.
The influencer said: “I bought lost mail packages for $1 [78p] each.”
She then began to look inside each package and her first find was a security camera.
Sarah confirmed that the Canary View Indoor Security Camera was worth $100 [£78], and came complete with the box and necessary leads.
Not only this, but in the next parcel, she found an Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max case.
Sarah claimed that the smart, black silicone phone case, which was in its official box, is normally priced at $60 [£47].
And that wasn’t all, as she was also left beaming when she opened a parcel to find an Amazon Echo Show.
This posh touchscreen device is designed around Amazon’s virtual assistant Alexa and Sarah claimed that they can be bought for $70 [£55].
If that wasn’t enough, the brunette beauty was equally as stunned when she found a variety of other tech items, including a wireless speaker, a funky ring light that’s great for selfies, and another phone case.
Overjoyed with her lost post packages, Sarah beamed: “Crazy what kind of packages get lost in the mail!”
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.
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.
