I spent £106 on a thriller field of misplaced parcels from Royal Mail

A woman who bought a box of lost parcels for £106 has revealed how she bagged nearly £1000 worth of goodies, including a Michael Kors bag, an expensive silk top and Adidas trainers. 

Becky Chorlton, from Lymm in Cheshire, bought the stray packages from a company called Unboxing Heaven, a third party company who sell on lost Royal Mail packages.

The content creator, who is known for her thrifty tips and tricks, often posts about finding hidden gems at charity shops or car boot sales.

Recently, she has posted clips of her opening lost luggage from Heathrow Airport, returns from Amazon and mystery boxes from various websites. 

The first thing she opened was a parcel from Stone Island and it was a simple black sweatshirt with the logo on the sleeve, a video posted to her TikTok shows. 

Scott , Liam Gallagher and even politician Sir Keir Starmer have been pictured wearing Stone Island clothing.

But Becky put it into a website called Certilogo, which checks the authenticity of a product, and the garment turned out to be fake.

She then unwrapped the next box and it was a nail set from Sassy Saints, which retails for around £69 meaning she has made more than half of her money back already.

The influencer then opened the next package, which turned out to be a teddy bear from the horror series Murder Drones.

Plush toys from the television show can range from around £7 to £16, depending on where you buy them from.

The next surprise item Becky got was a pair of brand new Adidas trainers, still in their original box.

The shoes are the Spezial edition made from nubuck suede in navy with light blue stripes and retail for £90 on the website.

This style of jumper usually retails for around £275 and A-listers such as Drake, Travis

But they were a size 7.5 and did not fit Becky, meaning she is likely to sell them on. 

She next uncovered a ‘random’ pair of pink-framed glasses worth £4 and a soft grey jumper from Lily Silk which retails for £225.

 Becky then unwrapped two dupes of the Gucci monogram-style bags. The original branded accessories can sell for upwards of £1,000. 

The next garment was a white Represent hoodie with black graphic writing, which has a recommended retail price of £159.

The influencer then went on to open random items such as a Champions League trophy replica, oil for thinning hair and a portable steamer. 

Becky then got other accessories, such as two black shopper bags from Longchamp – which would usually retail for around £120 – but she questioned the authenticity of the products. 

Last but certainly not least, Becky unwrapped a Michael Kors Mirella Logo Tote bag, which retails for around £120 online.

Altogether, the estimated cost of the products was around £866 to £922, meaning Becky made hundreds of pounds in profit. 

She bought the lost parcels box from Unboxing Heaven, who sell mystery boxes from upwards of £50. 

In 2011, the BBC via a freedom of information request that Royal Mail made almost £1million in 2010 from selling off goods at auction.

Becky’s clip racked up thousands of likes and comments with users expressing their views on buying mystery boxes. 

One wrote: ‘I ordered one of these, was a load of junk, mostly fake but I did get one good thing which was a projector worth £75 which was a bonus, not stopped using it so not out of pocket.’

Another penned: ‘Definitely buy at your own risk as other[wise] won’t receive stuff, unfortunately only the ones [with loads of] followers.’

Others asked Becky whether she was selling on the stuff that did not fit her or that she did not want.
