Woman buys another person's luggage for $100 and reveals 'strange' discovery inside

A woman bought another person's luggage after it was left at the airport and found a rather 'strange' discovery inside.

You're probably thinking, how on earth Becky Chorlton got her hands on a suitcase that didn't belong to herself, right?

Well, Heathrow Airport in London holds onto lost property for three months from the date it was found or handed in.

And those items which are left unclaimed are sometimes given to auctions houses, who can then sell off the lost property to the highest bidder.

But often with suitcases, it's really luck of the draw, as you are not made aware what is inside prior to splashing the cash.

Nonetheless, Becky decided to spend $100 on a suitcase, and documented what was inside in a viral TikTok video.

Becky commented how she saw a lot of folks dub the scheme as a 'scam', but that certainly wasn't the case with her mystery suitcase.

In fact, the Brit realized she made her money back and then some.

The suitcase alone, a shiny blue Delsy suitcase, retails at around $300 - meaning Becky made her money back before she had even opened the case.

When she unzipped the suitcase, the TikToker was met with an anti-itch cream and some brand-new white underwear.

Certainly not the best start.

As she delved through the case, Becky discovered some pretty flamboyant items of clothing which she described as 'stunning traditional dresses and outfits'.

After discovering a bunch of other tops, including a Pink Floyd tee, Becky came to the conclusion that the luggage 'definitely' belonged to a woman.

Some pretty expensive items appeared in the case too, including a navy Tommy Hilfiger women's waterproof jacket, which retails at around $120.

A long green floral patterned maxi dress was also in the suitcase, and still had the tags on, showing its worth of $98.

Meanwhile, a pink Puma sports bra that usually costs around $25 was found at the bottom of the pile.

There were also a bunch of toiletries and health and beauty products found, including a Maybelline mascara, an Elf primer, an eyelash curler, and some used brushes.

Becky got particularly excited when she saw a black monogram Guess shoulder bag, a highly expensive designer item.

However, she quickly discovered it was a fake, and worth nowhere near as much as she originally thought.

Despite that, Becky couldn't really complain as to what she found in the suitcase.

"I was a little sceptical about buying this because most of the reviews say it's a scam. I'm just not sure what I think," she said.

"It's a little strange there's no socks or shoes and other things that you'd need for a holiday in this case."
