- I paid $100 for this box and I have no idea what's inside.
(whooshes and squeaks)
(playful music)
I am about to go shopping on Ebay right now
to buy mystery boxes.
What's in a mystery box?
Nobody knows except for the Ebay seller,
they just throw some stuff in a box
put it on Ebay and apparently people buy that sometimes.
Now you might be asking what kind of idiot
would buy something before knowing what it is,
this idiot right here is gonna do it.
It just says mystery box and the photo is a picture
of a question mark that looks like it was drawn poorly
in Microsoft Paint.
I have to buy this.
It's $15.
This listing is also vaguely insulting.
It says, just buy it, it's $15 you cheap ass.
I have low self esteem so
I'm gonna buy it.
This $50 mystery box says, totally strange
and also something totally useful.
I don't know what that could be, what's both strange
and useful, and costs $50?
Like a turtle, I don't know?
I'm gonna pull the trigger on this $100 mystery box
because I gotta, I gotta see
what an expensive mystery looks like.
It could literally be anything, someone out there could have
farted in a box, put it on Ebay for $100
and I'm gonna buy it.
I can't believe I spent so much money on mystery boxes.
(upbeat music)
Just got my first mystery box in the mail.
Very excited.
- I want to know, can I open it?
Can I open it and not tell you what's in it?
- Thank you.
So this box is pretty small, smaller than I thought.
I don't even remember which one this is
but it's light.
This is the big one, the granddaddy,
the $100 mystery box, it's finally here.
This is my stack of mystery boxes.
(dings)
I've never been more excited to open something
in my entire life.
I'm either gonna look like an idiot
or this stuffs gonna be really cool.
But I'm probably gonna look like an idiot.
(mysterious music)
This was the cheapest mystery box.
It was $15, it's very lightweight.
I don't have high hopes for this.
(shakes)
- I want to say it's a fanny pack.
- Like a clutch or wallet.
- Its some trendy glasses.
- The listing was very aggressive.
So I'm a little scared.
(shakes)
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- This could just be a box of hair.
- What if this is a treasure map?
- What if it is like
poison, I don't know.
It's probably not.
I'm scared to look.
Okay, okay.
Okay,
okay, okay.
What is this?
Is this like a broken iPhone?
What the hell?
(laughs)
This is literally like a broken part of an iPhone.
I paid $15 for a small box of garbage.
(heavenly music)
Okay so let's hope that the mystery boxes get better
when they increase in price.
This box was $50.
- Maybe it's like a Roomba?
- Cooking machine and it only cooks hot dogs.
- Now that I know it can definitely be garbage,
I'm a little bit, worried to open this.
- Maybe like a watermelon?
- There's a lot of stuff in here.
- It kind of feels like very heavy shoes.
- What?
This has a little smiley face.
What is all this stuff?
Oh my god.
Are these fireworks?
I don't.
Smells like smoke.
This just says here is a bag of strange.
What have I done?
Are these dead batteries?
What is this?
The (beeps).
Is this a gumball, is this a loose?
This is a loose gumball.
Is this just, no?
This is a bag of garbage.
(laughs)
What the hell, what is this.
This is something to catch flies.
There's a loose gumball
I can't.
Moist towelette.
A tiny Mickey statuette.
The thing that's really got me upset is this floss pick.
Like if this is used that's horrifying.
Oh God.
There's actual stuff in here but this person
just threw in a bonus bag of garbage
with a little smiley face.
There's a book called How to Speak Southern.
Spinach seeds.
Watermelon seeds, whoever said that there was a watermelon
in here is not wrong.
Sonic the Hedgehog game.
Vintage salt and pepper shakers.
This is not total garbage its kind of cool.
(magical music)
(exhales)
Okay, $100.
Let's find out what $100 of mystery looks like?
- Can I shake it?
Why?
- $100?
And you don't even know what it is?
(laughs)
- This is like scary Christmas.
- Probably is a tacky lamp.
Yeah, a tacky lamp.
- It's gotta be like an insane amount of jeans.
- Okay.
What is this?
It smells weird,
this is like some stuff, okay.
This doesn't look like trash,
which is very exciting.
First thing I see is a, oh my goodness,
it's a biography of Ronald Reagan.
Wow, there are pants in here.
There's a lot of pants.
There's a straw purse, this is kinda cool.
This is definitely like, lady stuff.
Is there anything in this purse?
There is, oh my goodness.
Ha,
okay there's this belt.
(gasps)
What the?
This looks like someone's like wallet,
this is so weird.
So here's this like, I do not know what this is,
are these perfumes?
These are,
no,
these are used like little on the go toiletries.
Breath spray, what does that mean?
I feel like these are partially empty.
So it's not like it's new.
Oh tweezers.
From a stranger.
Got some shorts, Armani exchange.
Okay, we got a skirt.
Alright a skirt.
God there's like weird stuff coming out of this box.
A bunch of cloth napkins.
Oh my god.
I feel like instead of going to Goodwill
this person just put all this stuff in a box and shipped it.
Which is probably more work than just dropping it off
at Goodwill, then again they did get $100
for worthless junk.
Oh that's musty as hell.
Oh wait there's one more thing.
It's maybe breakable.
What is thi?
(coughs)
It's like dust.
Oh my god is this like a piece?
(laughs)
It's a pipe.
(laughs)
So I believe this is drug paraphernalia,
for smoking marijuana.
So there's a bunch of like lady clothes.
A Ronald Reagan book.
And a pipe.
For marijuana.
(ethereal music)
These were the most exciting boxes I've ever opened.
Even though they contained trash they were very fun to open.
I don't think any of the things that were sent to me
were worth any money at all.
But, it was exciting, it was exciting,
it did bring some mystery into my very dull life.
If you want like maybe 30 seconds os excitement.
And then hours of disappointment
and wondering why you wasted money,
get a mystery box from Ebay.
It makes me want to put my junk in a box
and try to sell it on Ebay but I don't know
if there's as many dumb people out there like me
that will actually buy it.
Part of me wants to chew this gumball.
I know I shouldn't chew this gumball but like,
I do love gum.
