A WOMAN has revealed how she ended up with £40,000 worth of luxury designer items after buying a lost shipping container.
Hope, who often shares her bargain hauls on her YouTube channel HopeScope, spent just over £5,000 on her goods meaning she could be left with a potential profit of £35,000.
With the help of her partner Hope bid on a lost shipping container at the auction house Erkelens & Olson, marked up as ‘high end’ and claiming to contain thousands worth of unclaimed designer goods.
Opening her first container, Hope says: “This is either going to be a complete waste of money or the coolest thing I ever bought.”
While the pallet contains a few duds such as an Elvis Presley lamp and baseball cards, Hope is left with a sea of ‘designer’ goods.
She unwrapped no less than 19 Ralph Lauren trunks, seven Louis Vuitton wallets and three of their bags.
There were four pairs of Gucci glasses and two belts while Hope was delighted to discover four Hermes pendants at a value of £500 and three £3.7k Hermes bags.
Other highlights included two pairs of Yeezy Trainers, Louboutin heels and plenty of Michael Kors merchandise.

Having worked out the value of everything in the box, Hope says: “If all of this stuff ends up being real then this pallet is worth about $55,218 (£40,716).”
However, Hope is fully prepared for it to be far less than that.
She adds: “Auctions like this usually don’t make any promises about how authentic any of the things are, so that’s something we’re going to have to figure out ourselves.”
