I set out on a treacherous journey to find this and at last I have found what I desired

It just never made sense to me I can very easily spot a fake but how do people make them convincing

I know the bend method and the eye glare in the photo and all that

Like is there a way that this could be avoided during the process of producing it

So I’ve done this a few times maybe 5 idk.
What you want to do is a have a reputable Facebook Marketplace shop/account and start selling “mystery boxes” and range you prices on the size of the box like small is 15 dollars and so on. After you get a sale just run down to a thrift store local small ones work best as their more prone to negotiate prices and spend like twenty dollars on stuff that doesn’t look like it’s from a thrift store toys, shoes, cds etc. they should be pretty cheap but always try to run that shit down as much as possible and that’s pretty much the whole sourcing step.
After that you want to meet them somewhere open to the public but almost out of public eye for example a grocery store but way out in the back of the parking lot also MAKE SURE YOU GET THE MONEY FIRST SO WHEN THEY OPEN IT THEY CANT GET MAD AND THROW A TANTRUM. Remember it was a “mystery box” after all BUT make sure to toss something actually decent in every like 2-3 boxes as it’s like gambling and once someone gets that dopamine rush they’ll be chasing it hoping for that same high.

Also leave feedback let me know if it works for you too!
