A man, who identifies as a "charity shop hunter" and shares his finds online, recently made what he called his "greatest charity shop find ever." He discovered a Barbie complete DVD collection, styled as a pink jewelry case with 19 animated movies, in a British Heart Foundation shop. The set was priced at only £8 but is valued significantly higher by retailers, with CEX listing it at £190 and recent eBay sales reaching up to £167.10.
During his visit to Burton upon Trent, he also purchased a Blu-ray of "Krull" for £1, which has a resale value of £18. His total spending for the day at the charity shop was £9. While many were amazed by his profitable find, some commenters expressed a preference for people to enjoy items rather than solely reselling them for profit.
