Mystery boxes are the hottest trend in clearance shopping — but are they really worth it? For just Rs. 1,999 or Rs. 2,999, you get a sealed package with a surprise mix of products. Some shoppers swear by them, claiming they scored perfumes, electronics, or fashion items at a fraction of the retail price. Others remain skeptical, fearing they’ll end up with unwanted stock. To uncover the truth, we decided to put ReBox mystery boxes to the test.
What Goes Into a Mystery Box?
Mystery boxes are designed to clear overstock, unboxed items, and seasonal leftovers while giving customers a sense of thrill. At ReBox, mystery boxes usually include a mix of:
- Cosmetics and perfumes
- Small electronics and mobile accessories
- Home essentials
- Kids’ toys and stationery
- Fashion accessories (bags, watches, glasses)
The value of the box is often 2–3x higher than the price paid.
Our Mystery Box Experiment
To test the hype, we ordered three different ReBox Mystery Boxes. Here’s what we found:
- Box 1 (Rs. 1,999): Included a Bluetooth speaker, branded shampoo, kids’ coloring set, and a pair of sunglasses. Retail value = Rs. 5,200.
- Box 2 (Rs. 2,999): Contained a men’s perfume, a cosmetics bundle, two phone covers, and a branded t-shirt. Retail value = Rs. 8,700.
- Box 3 (Rs. 1,999): Packed with a women’s handbag, earphones, a toy car set, and a home decor piece. Retail value = Rs. 6,400.
Average saving: 65% across all boxes.
Why People Love Them
- Thrill Factor → The surprise element makes unboxing exciting.
- Value for Money → Actual retail value often double or triple.
- Perfect for Gifts → Works as ready-made gift bundles.
- Variety → You get products across multiple categories in one box.
The Downsides You Should Know
- You might receive products you don’t immediately need.
- Sizes and colors for fashion items may vary.
- Stocks are limited, so items change often.
However, ReBox addresses this by ensuring a balanced mix (electronics + lifestyle + essentials) and by maintaining condition grading (Unboxed, Overstock, Box-Open).
Tips for Buying Mystery Boxes
- Start with a smaller box to experience the process.
- Look for category-based boxes (Cosmetics Box, Family Box, Student Box).
- Join WhatsApp communities or ReBox social handles for early drops.
- If you don’t need something, resell it — many shoppers make profits this way.
Final Word
Mystery boxes aren’t just about clearance — they’re about excitement, value, and discovery. Our experiment showed consistent savings of 60–70% with a wide variety of useful items. Whether you’re a deal hunter, a reseller, or just someone who loves surprises, ReBox Mystery Boxes are worth the hype.
