A woman made a shocking discovery after a hunk of household items slowed down from Facebook.
While she was thrilled to have the item on its own, hidden inside was a set of kitchen tools from a luxury brand.

“Jaws hit the floor!!” Tiktoker Amanda DeWitt (@itsamandadewitt) exclaimed in a recent post.
Amanda explained that she bought the “stunning” Louis XVI buffet through Facebook Marketplace for about a ninth of its typical price.
For reference, Louis XVI Buffet editions can go for more than $20,000, according to the listing on Wayfair.
So the deal wasn't nearly so sweet, but Amanda opened up some closets to find even more “crazy” value.

Inside was a complete set of Hermes china, including decorative plates and dish sets.
The distinctive orange boxes can be seen in the clip as Amanda takes them out of the buffet in shock.
“I mean beautiful, literally what dreams are made of,” the Tiktoker expressed.
Can't stay silent
Although it was a lucky find, Amanda said she couldn't continue to maintain the buffet unless she mentioned it to the vendor.
Considering the value of the luxury Hermès collection and potential sentimental value, Amanda decided to inform them that she had found beautiful china inside the antique buffet.
“I have no idea if this china was left in an accident, on purpose – obviously I'm not like, a terrible person so I messaged [seller] “I bought it,” Amanda explained.
Despite her hopes that they didn't want to return to the Hermes collection, a follow-up video showed that they came back to get it.
Amanda can be seen with her face in her hands in disappointment.
Good Samaritan
Although this wasn't the outcome the Tiktoker wanted, many praised her for doing the right thing and reaching out to the seller when she couldn't just say something and kept the entire Hermès collection.
“You did the right thing. I hope they treat you honestly,” one commenter wrote.
Valuable cavity finds were uncovered

Another wrote: “You can't put a price on a clean conscience.”
A third added: “The five seconds you had were still worth it. Good job on being a good person.”
Another person argued that they were waiting a little longer to contact the seller to see if he would reach out first.
Others criticized the move as selfish.
Either way, this wouldn't be the first time someone has turned on an item only to find that it had much more value than expected.

One shopper purchased an $18 smartwatch from a blind store before discovering it was a popular $10,000 design.
After searching and finding a “Dream” dresser at Goodwill, the buyer discovered that it was actually more than $4,000.
