A WOMAN who bought a box of Amazon returns thought she'd hit the jackpot when she found winter essentials like a dehumidifier and a heater inside. <\/p>\n

Becky admitted she was "genuinely shook" by what she found in the box, which she'd ordered from eBay. <\/p>\n

Kicking off her TikTok video, Becky said: "I fully thought I was gonna be scammed but this rocked up at my door yesterday.<\/p>\n

"I haven't opened it yet so let's see what's inside.<\/p>\n

"Honestly it feels quite heavy!"<\/p>\n

Opening up the top of the box, Becky looked inside and said: "My God, there's so much in here!<\/p>\n

I spent $480 on an Amazon pallet – pricey items were worth over $1.3k<\/h3>\n

"I don't know if any of this stuff works, so I'll have to test it and let you know."<\/p>\n

The first thing she got out of the parcel was a pink mini fridge.<\/p>\n

"That's sick – it honestly doesn't look like it's been used at all," she said. <\/p>\n

Next was a gel mat, and a "cool lunch box". <\/p>\n

Despite admitting she'd "always wanted one", Becky was disappointed to open it up and find out it's properly broken – with a huge crack in the lid too. <\/p>\n

Next up was a dehumidifier\/air purifier – perfect for this time of year – and what looked like a mini heater. <\/p>\n

She took a travel bag out, which she loved until she realised it had a huge rip in it, followed by a feather duster, and two disposable dehumidifiers.<\/p>\n

The next item – a cute cabin-sized suitcase – was also packed with bits and pieces. <\/p>\n

"This is insane – I actually needed one of these," Becky grinned. <\/p>\n

Inside the case was a pack of smiley face slinkies, a random pair of glasses, a picnic blanket, a book and stationery set, some LED light strips, a kids learning pad and a cute keychain with a quote on it. <\/p>\n

Concluding the haul was some under cabinet lighting and even an air bed.<\/p>\n

"I can't believe I got all of this stuff for \u00a326!" she said. <\/p>\n

"Do you think it was worth it?"<\/p>\n

"Genuinely shook at what was in this box!!" Becky added in the caption. <\/p>\n

"Watch till the end for a huge surprise. <\/p>\n

"Was it worth \u00a326, let me know??"<\/p>\n

People were quick to comment on the video, with one writing: "Definitely worth it!"<\/p>\n

"That\u2019s actually really good!" another added. <\/p>\n

As a third wrote: "I need that mini fridge!" <\/p>\n

But others weren't as convinced, with one sharing a warning about one of the machines inside the returns box. <\/p>\n

"Be careful, I bought that heater and they were recalled for setting on fire," one wrote. <\/p>\n

"My bank blocked my card the time I tried to do this," another added. <\/p>\n

As a third commented: "I don't think it was worth it, not great!"<\/p>\n

"Only worth it if you need random stuff," someone else wrote. <\/p>\n

With Becky promising: "I\u2019ll make use for everything don't worry!"<\/p>\n
