A good idea for a future video would be an update on how many items from this box you sell, maybe six months from now, if you want to keep track. It would be very informative!
@@commontags Agree good to have update video, maybe mention in next video how long took to list and list value total, then maybe in 3 months (6 mo. too long lol we'll forget) update on sales. Based on what I saw I would have low expectations on about 70% of it. @commontags

I dropped over $400 on Boutique By The Box for 10 pieces each on For Love & Lemons & L’Agence pieces and I was literally in tears over how bad it was. Everything was in the sizes XXS, XS, 0, and 2 and I just barely scraped by selling enough to recoup that initial cost. I felt completely scammed with the garbage sizes and the For Love & Lemons stuff just being sold at Victoria’s Secret. I completely lost my support of the reseller RUclipsr that referred me. I’m glad you’re so honest with your reviews.
Same here, I still have Good American Jeans from last year. I paid $25 each one and a few months after they were offering same jeans in bulk for live shows $8 each one. Comps went straight to the floor.
I have never received a great box from any of the companies. That is why I stick to sourcing in person. Thanks for doing this video though. It serves as a good reminder. I wonder if these items came from an Everlane Outlet store or something similar.
I ordered 2 boxes last year from Boutique by the Box. Prana and Daydreamer. I've sold 2 of the Prana items and thats it. The styles were totally saturated on ebay and I've got 10 of the same flannel shirts and 10 of the same style of jeans. I could take them to consignment shops but I think they aren't buying winter anymore so I am stuck with all this unsellable inventory. The Daydreamer has sold a few more but they've taken forever to sell and I didn't get very much return on them. Every wholesale box I've ever bought from any company has really been stuff thats very hard to move. I give up on boxes. I think I'll stick to thrifting.
Hi Courtney, I thought I would chime in bc I have bought many NWT everlane wholesale boxes. I have learned what sells best in the brand for me. For me, their pants do best, not the leggings or activewear, but their barrel pants and straight leg. Also their silk tops that are solid color. They are known for their simple staples, so the weird colors don't do well for me personally. Good news, I have not seen any of the tops you got in your box, or the dresses, so hopefully it's not saturated. I love selling this brand. They def have a following. Hoping you sell a lot of this and I always appreciate your candid reviews. Also, you are so brave and beautiful to share your bra haul. xo Quenby
I got 2 Boutique By the Box Everlane Boot Boxes. 5 pairs for 200$, so 10 pairs total, 40$ a pair. I was hoping the would sell faster, but I just sold my 3rd pair after about 3 months. 1 sold for 84$, 1 for 120$, and 1 for 175$ (free ship), so Ive grossed about 295$. I probably will need to sell 2 more pairs before I break even, and 2 of the pairs I received I will likely not make much on as they are rubber rain boots (they did not disclose i could potentially get those). I estimate I will end up profiting about $250 once they all finally sell, but I dont think I would do it again. Too much money tied up for who knows how long, without a great return. I saw this box and after seeing your unboxing Im glad I didnt go for it. Ive been seriously burned by them before with a "high end legging" box of which I still have the majority or the no name bright yellow leggings that made up the bulk of the box. They did have an Everlane sweater box that could have potentially been the best of all their Everlane wholesale, but it was somethimg like 30$ a piece and sold out fast. Wholesale is hard.
I appreciate your honest take on this box. I ordered from them last year and still have most of the pieces because all the styles were so saturated from so many resellers getting the same stuff. I don’t waste my money on wholesale anymore. I know your far from buy sell trade stores but that might be an easier way to recover some money from this box.
OMG I love the items you showed from Parade! I need some new intimate pieces!!!! I will definitely be checking them out next week and will use your code if I purchase anything. Thank you for sharing and modeling for us!!! As for the box, not too exciting but I'm sure you will eventually sell the items as the label does have a loyal following. :) Definitely common for multiple items in these liquidation boxes.
You definitely find better things at the thrift! I think you may have to hold on for some of these pieces for awhile but some of them will sell. Do I think it was worth $400? No, but I enjoyed watching you open it! Always fun to try something new! Great video!
Thank you for the positive comment and outlook! I think it’s worth trying things for YT, but I definitely have never had any luck with wholesale boxes.
Got the same, for what people pay was a bit disappointed, I never find everlane in my thrifts. I'm going to avoid Boutique by the Box for a long while last two boxes have been let downs.
lol, which is why I said in the title that I made a mistake. I also clarify a lot at the end of the video. Lots of people don’t read the details before ordering, so I’m not alone in that.
A couple positives... Some of the colors I do think are decent for spring. Everlane has a good name for quality so even those that haven't heard of Everlane leggings still might purchase to try them out at a discounted price than what they would pay at the store, and the men's flannels might actually be the first to sell. I would start out on the higher end of the middle prices on comps. You can always lower later if needed. Just my thoughts. If you get it listed quickly, prior to spring break trips I'm thinking you might actually make maybe $300. Not great considering time and investment, but it's definitely better than losing money.
Love the Parade review! I will check it out as I would love some non underwire bras. Regarding the box, i have heard resellers say they started with these boxes from Boutique by the box so thank you for trying one for us to see. I am not a huge fan of everlane as i like special pieces rather rhan essentials so this one would have been hard for me too. I am shocked that they didnt throw in 1 or 2 pairs of jeans as i feel like thats what they are know for. Hoping you make the money soon!!!
Wholesale boxes make me nervous with the high cog. I will look but have always ended up avoiding purchasing. I do appreciate that they were transparent on their site.
Yea, I threw away good money on this box as well. Other RUclips unboxing videos have threads of information about where this came from, evidently an outlet called Otrium closed. I can’t verify this, it’s just what I read on another channel
These were all from otrium's site. They're the exact same items I saw on there before they closed. They have otrium's inventory stickers on them as well, I can see in the video. I know so much about their inventory system because every time otrium would send a wrong item they wanted a photo of the inventory sticker on the bag so they could figure out how they messed it up.
Wow that XXL yellow and white striped top would have been the last thing I wanted to wear back when I wore an XXL! But then yellow is a bad color for me. For someone who looks great in that color, it could be a fun choice. (Or er a bold statement!)
I got the same box,and it was exactly the same items as in your box. I could spit nails because there was someone else on you tube that had an unboxing of the same exact box! All the same stuff! I had to buy wholesale boxes for the last 2 months, because I broke my foot in November and could not get out to thrift. Still can’t. Thanks for the vent Courtney
I’ve seen some great unboxing videos from Helpsy Source! Apparently they have an Everlane pants/jeans box NWT! The Grateful Queen did a video on it and said it was her favorite and she made a great return! Also, just a heads up about Outdoor Voices if you do one of those boxes… although there retail is high, I find that the leggings do not move at all resale and if they do they go for like $10-$18 if your lucky, sadly! Love your videos!! Hope this helps! 😊
Yep, I rarely pick up Outdoor Voices, but I like the brand for myself and I could sell pieces to people at my yoga studio, which would be the only reason I would try that one. I tried Helpsy when they were under a different name and I got a terrible box, so I won’t be buying from them again.
@@commontagswhen BBTB dropped that box I checked the comps for the outdoor voices leggings and the market for those seems to have tanked big time compared to a couple years ago.
I've been considering helpsy source, they seem to have quality boxes with items that actually sell. My only hang up is, like you mentioned, how many other resellers are getting the same exact items & how flooded will the market be.
I’ve ordered with Helpsy a few times. Mostly their NWT Halara boxes when Halara was really hot last year and I made bank off of them. I ordered one of their UO secondhand boxes and it was garbage. If you find NWT inventory that looks like a good brand to sell I’d recommend them as trustworthy, but highly advise against the secondhand boxes. It’s hard with them though because if they get a box that they see is blowing up after the first drop they massively jack up the price during their next drop (as in double thus double the cost per each item) so you really have to hit it at the right time.
@@teeresellsgoods This is my experience too. I've definitely gotten some not so amazing boxes from them but the few times I have reached out to them with a major issue they've made it right. It's not to say they're perfect but I've done so much better with helpsy boxes than BBTB (though that's not saying much)
I’ve never tried Helpsy under that name, but I tried them under their previous name and I did not get anything good, so I have no plans of trying them again. But, I’m happy to hear that some people have gotten good boxes. I only trust thrifting as a way to source.
Helpsy is better than BBTB but I get nothing but outdated old stuff from helpsy..they give more variety in their items but only had 1 profitable box from them out of 5
Hi Courtney, wow I think the box is disappointing. It isn't anything that you would normally choose. The colours may be good for upcoming spring but the styles are questionable. I agree the flannel are the best. Hope you make your money back and your time as well. I appreciate you taking a risk and trying something new.
I’m so sorry I saw the add for that boutique wholesale….. I was very hesitant and value your input / I feel like they sent you last years spring summer items that did not sell for them I’m disappointed 😮
Their website clearly says “Wholesale Clothing For Resellers” so while a regular store can buy this stuff as inventory, they are marketing to resellers like us.
I didn't know so many people didn't like green lol! I love to wear it but really only the darker shades, yeah mint can be tough. Maybe with the y2k trends it'll come back lol. Another unboxing of this I saw was very similar; BBTB does tend to send out many of the same exact box somehow, and lots of duplicates within them.
I ordered and received the outdoor voices box yesterday. Not as many duplicates as the Everlane box, but many duplicates nonetheless, the issue I had with that box is the sizes were either extra small extra extra small or XXL. I am going to try to sell half the box and 10 piece slots for my cost and then try to sell 20 items. I hope that works! The worst box I ever received from BBB is the prana box I have sold only one item from it I really like this company, but I really need to think twice before I buy again.
Wow courtney. That’s a lot of same things. Well atleast they are brand new and some are really things people Should want Like flannel’s crop tops and leggings and possibly those dresses I bet they sell. Good luck. Hey you gave it a try that’s what counts
Yikes. So disappointing. I recently looked at their site too but won't be taking a chance. I sourced today from Whatnot. It "seemed" like really good deals so we'll see! I'm going to track it all and see how it goes. One show was all bundles for reselling but you were shown each item and they were NWT. I feel better at least seeing what I bought before I bought it and like you said about driving/time, the COG seemed very promising. But that's what I don't like about a lot of those places like what you are showing is not knowing exactly what you are getting most of the time.
Thanks for the Parade info, Courtney (from another woman with a larger top). Hoping to find a few styles I love! I'm afraid the Everlane box was a bit of a snooze, but they do have great quality items. Best of luck! Hope they all sell quickly!
Yikes, what a yawner box! Like you, I usually only buy wholesale boxes for fun - hopefully you’ll recoup. Thanks a bunch for your review/recommendation for Parade. I’ve been looking for new undergarments and these look really nice. Headed over to chk them out - will definitely use your code. Thanks, Courtney! -Laura 🌻
Do you know the definitive way to tell if a shirt is men’s or women’s? If you can do the “Napoleon“ (put your hand into the button area) it’s a man’s shirt. If you can’t it’s a woman’s.
I've ordered 4 boxes from them. Two of them were AWFUL and two were pretty good. I got the everlane dresses box and I've about doubled my money. Was a great box in the summer when I got it
By the way, only one item was in my size, the lavender leggings.they feel compressed but once you wear them you will love them. They are so warm and comfy. I don't want to take them off. The color is beautiful.
You will make a profit on it though Everlane NWTs around 20-30 depending on styles but may sit a while knits do better didn’t know they did athletic wear so that be cool to try. You could also grab few same sizes and lot them them 👍🏼
Picture this: you buy your first box from Boutique By the Box and the very first thing you posted sold for a $300 profit in less than an hour. You're a brand new reseller and that's your largest flip yet. You are RIDING THAT HIGH. So you go ahead and order EVERY LAST BOX THEY HAVE FROM THAT BRAND. And a few other boxes. Several thousand dollars later.... I've sold that initial piece and a few damaged items for very, very little. 😂😭😭😭😭
Their website clearly says “Wholesale Clothing For Resellers” so while a regular store can buy this stuff as inventory, they are marketing to resellers like us.
O no 😩what a terrible box. Everlane is a beautiful brand but the resale is not great if it had been jeans jackets sweaters etc on the positive it’s a lesson learnt! Thanks for the content your the only reseller I still follow love the videos 🌹🫶🏻
They’re such a hit or miss company. I bought this same box, mostly because of the hype from Helpsy Source’s Everlane box. I’ve sold one pair of leggings so far. I also bought two of their Everlane sweater boxes on the same day, so 40 pieces worth, and have already sold 6 of them and they’ve only been listed a week or so. I was really worried because I had 10 duplicates of one item and 10 of another out of that lot which seems excessive to me, but if they move then that’s great. I’ve had a few really good boxes from them, but more often it’s either a complete flop (their Prana & Ted Baker) or they just do okay and I make a little more back than I spent.
Thanks for your honesty. I am sure I was subscribed to you, but just noticed that I am no longer subscribed. I am not sure what that is about. Just an FYI
I just checked the everlane website and I can’t find any leggings or athletic wear except for sweatpants. So maybe they were getting rid of all their athletic wear 🤷🏻♀️
Ugh, fingers crossed you make money on the box. I ordered from boutique by the box a couple years ago. It was a trial mix box of new with tags items. While I got a mix of items, it was only 5 or 6 items and 4 had flaws, which wasn’t mentioned. So I’ve never ordered from them again.
I mean it's not great - but it's exactly what they said it would be/what the photos showed. Probably going to be hard to move this stuff as everyone who bought this box probably got the same items.
lol this serves as a good tip for consumers to not go directly to the stores and just shop secondhand since the prices for these expensive brands are so low 😂
I’m sure you will make your $400 back, but would be surprised if you doubled it! Not a fan of most of what you received, but the leggings look nice. Know you know! 🤷♀️
Oh my..This is awrful. Clearly all the stuff they could not sell on their own website. You should in future check to see if duplicates and max number of dups are in a box. Colors and terrible and hard to sell, styles are just so not stylish. I wish you the best in recouping your investment. If you think about it as a learning/education for yourself and your viewers, i'ts worth it! hopefully you make more than $400 on this video from youtube! I have never bought a box like this and never plan to. I have moved into rare vintage so finding that perfect piece is my new normal.
I definitely wouldn’t have ordered this without the YT money, and hopefully it’s helpful for other resellers to see. I do feel bad for all the people that ordered it for inventory only. These companies have never been great, and I don’t think they will ever be worth it, IMO.
Looks pretty cheap and it cost way too much for what you get. You could have done better at that good place your mother went to and got you really good items way cheaper than that box. Good luck on getting some of your money back.
I have bought from this company YEARS ago and everything they sell is the same items for everyone. NOTHING sells for me. I wasted 400 on a prana box last year the box was mainly duplicate jeans not one pair of Jean's has sold. I sold some flannels but will never buy from them again. There is no variety.
I got this box and really regret it. I do well with Helpsy's Everlane boxes. Apparently, BBTB bought out the Everlane from another Liquidation company and they went out of business. Most of the boxes I have purchased from BBTB I haven't done well with mainly because they send the SAME items to everyone.....
You are being too nice. This is a bad investment of $400. Imagine what you can do at the bins for that money. Good for content though. And a warning to whoever wass thinking of getting one.

I hope so too!
I dropped over $400 on Boutique By The Box for 10 pieces each on For Love & Lemons & L’Agence pieces and I was literally in tears over how bad it was. Everything was in the sizes XXS, XS, 0, and 2 and I just barely scraped by selling enough to recoup that initial cost. I felt completely scammed with the garbage sizes and the For Love & Lemons stuff just being sold at Victoria’s Secret. I completely lost my support of the reseller RUclipsr that referred me. I’m glad you’re so honest with your reviews.
I feel that they were probably good before the referral codes came out and everyone started buying from them. Now everything they sell is saturated.
Oh my! That is such a bummer! So sorry you got a bad box as well, but I appreciate you sharing!
Same here, I still have Good American Jeans from last year. I paid $25 each one and a few months after they were offering same jeans in bulk for live shows $8 each one.
Comps went straight to the floor.
Seem like the common thread, they always give the xxs, xs 0 , 2 PS, type of inventory so they don't have to sale or deal with it.
Brave of you Courtney, to model those bras. You go girl❤😊
lol, they are just comfortable bras 😊 I’ve seen tops that are more revealing than these.
I have never received a great box from any of the companies. That is why I stick to sourcing in person. Thanks for doing this video though. It serves as a good reminder. I wonder if these items came from an Everlane Outlet store or something similar.
Not sure, but I did find most of them on the regular Everlane website with the old listings.
I ordered 2 boxes last year from Boutique by the Box. Prana and Daydreamer. I've sold 2 of the Prana items and thats it.

I’m so sorry I saw the add for that boutique wholesale….. I was very hesitant and value your input / I feel like they sent you last years spring summer items that did not sell for them I’m disappointed 😮
I purchased a box of skims that I thought would be all nwt. Maybe 30% was nwt the rest looked to be returns. Not a fan.
I guess it makes sense in that if you were opening a cute little brick and mortar one would want multiples in different sizes hanging on the racks?
Their website clearly says “Wholesale Clothing For Resellers” so while a regular store can buy this stuff as inventory, they are marketing to resellers like us.
I didn't know so many people didn't like green lol! I love to wear it but really only the darker shades, yeah mint can be tough. Maybe with the y2k trends it'll come back lol. Another unboxing of this I saw was very similar; BBTB does tend to send out many of the same exact box somehow, and lots of duplicates within them.
Thanks for sharing!!
I ordered and received the outdoor voices box yesterday. Not as many duplicates as the Everlane box, but many duplicates nonetheless, the issue I had with that box is the sizes were either extra small extra extra small or XXL. I am going to try to sell half the box and 10 piece slots for my cost and then try to sell 20 items. I hope that works! The worst box I ever received from BBB is the prana box I have sold only one item from it I really like this company, but I really need to think twice before I buy again.
Thanks for sharing!
This is what I like to call “taking one for the team”. Thank you for the great content so we are all warned on what to expect if we buy this box.
lol, I’m always happy to take one for the team and be honest about these companies.
I’m hoping since we are in winter the comps will do better soon. Plus some athletic wear too. 😅
Classic boutique by the box. When their boxes are good, they are really good but when they are bad, they are really bad.
lol, yikes!
Wow courtney. That’s a lot of same things. Well atleast they are brand new and some are really things people Should want Like flannel’s crop tops and leggings and possibly those dresses I bet they sell. Good luck. Hey you gave it a try that’s what counts
Yikes. So disappointing. I recently looked at their site too but won't be taking a chance. I sourced today from Whatnot. It "seemed" like really good deals so we'll see! I'm going to track it all and see how it goes. One show was all bundles for reselling but you were shown each item and they were NWT. I feel better at least seeing what I bought before I bought it and like you said about driving/time, the COG seemed very promising. But that's what I don't like about a lot of those places like what you are showing is not knowing exactly what you are getting most of the time.
Thanks for the Parade info, Courtney (from another woman with a larger top). Hoping to find a few styles I love!
I'm afraid the Everlane box was a bit of a snooze, but they do have great quality items. Best of luck! Hope they all sell quickly!
Thank you! I think it was worth trying. Hope you find some cute items with Parade.
Yikes, what a yawner box! Like you, I usually only buy wholesale boxes for fun - hopefully you’ll recoup. Thanks a bunch for your review/recommendation for Parade. I’ve been looking for new undergarments and these look really nice. Headed over to chk them out - will definitely use your code.
Thanks, Courtney! -Laura 🌻
Awesome! Hope you like them!
I ordered a denim box from Boutique by the box last year and I didn’t sell any single item. Consign and recupe some money back. Never again .
Oh wow!
Well, that was painful to see all those duplicates ☹️ Reminds me back in 2021 I think with posh boss Blake and the B&G boxes 😉
Yea, I have one of those boxes in my channel as well. They all seem to be bad….😕
Do you know the definitive way to tell if a shirt is men’s or women’s? If you can do the “Napoleon“ (put your hand into the button area) it’s a man’s shirt. If you can’t it’s a woman’s.
I ordered this box too and got the same items and duplicates. I’ve received good boxes from BTTB, but this wasn’t one of them.
Aww, so sorry you got a bad box as well!
I've ordered 4 boxes from them. Two of them were AWFUL and two were pretty good. I got the everlane dresses box and I've about doubled my money. Was a great box in the summer when I got it
I got one. A lot of resellers got this box. All I've seen have the same items. I just started listing.
By the way, only one item was in my size, the lavender leggings.they feel compressed but once you wear them you will love them. They are so warm and comfy. I don't want to take them off. The color is beautiful.
I’ve kept one of those and two teal leggings. I like them all. I’m also giving my boyfriend a flannel, so that helps a little. Thanks for sharing!
Love your video's Coutney! Not great box but you have to try for sure! I saw some good Boxes by this company but you never know. Take care;😄
You will make a profit on it though Everlane NWTs around 20-30 depending on styles but may sit a while knits do better didn’t know they did athletic wear so that be cool to try. You could also grab few same sizes and lot them them 👍🏼
Great suggestion!
Picture this: you buy your first box from Boutique By the Box and the very first thing you posted sold for a $300 profit in less than an hour. You're a brand new reseller and that's your largest flip yet. You are RIDING THAT HIGH. So you go ahead and order EVERY LAST BOX THEY HAVE FROM THAT BRAND. And a few other boxes. Several thousand dollars later.... I've sold that initial piece and a few damaged items for very, very little. 😂😭😭😭😭
I think that is why it is called "boutiqe". Boutique owners by in "lots".
Their website clearly says “Wholesale Clothing For Resellers” so while a regular store can buy this stuff as inventory, they are marketing to resellers like us.
Terrible box. As to Parade, they look very comfy but also pretty. You are a wonderfully confident woman!! Kudos!
Thank you! They are so comfortable and fit great, so I wanted to share 😊
O no 😩what a terrible box. Everlane is a beautiful brand but the resale is not great if it had been jeans jackets sweaters etc on the positive it’s a lesson learnt! Thanks for the content your the only reseller I still follow love the videos 🌹🫶🏻
Thank you!! 😊
They’re such a hit or miss company. I bought this same box, mostly because of the hype from Helpsy Source’s Everlane box. I’ve sold one pair of leggings so far.
I also bought two of their Everlane sweater boxes on the same day, so 40 pieces worth, and have already sold 6 of them and they’ve only been listed a week or so. I was really worried because I had 10 duplicates of one item and 10 of another out of that lot which seems excessive to me, but if they move then that’s great.
I’ve had a few really good boxes from them, but more often it’s either a complete flop (their Prana & Ted Baker) or they just do okay and I make a little more back than I spent.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your honesty. I am sure I was subscribed to you, but just noticed that I am no longer subscribed. I am not sure what that is about. Just an FYI
Welcome back!
1/3 of my business is selling Everlane that I buy from BBTB et al. I hope people stop buying it so the prices go back down honestly lol
lol, well, I hope your stuff is better than this box.
box cutters are really cheap. i have 2 small circular ones with razor blades. takes 3 seconds to open any package.
I have two box cutters. Sometimes they aren’t next to me when I’m filming. Not a big deal.
Yep would not have been happy with that box. I have a feeling you will sit on a lot of it
I just checked the everlane website and I can’t find any leggings or athletic wear except for sweatpants. So maybe they were getting rid of all their athletic wear 🤷🏻♀️
Yea, probably.
Ugh, fingers crossed you make money on the box. I ordered from boutique by the box a couple years ago. It was a trial mix box of new with tags items. While I got a mix of items, it was only 5 or 6 items and 4 had flaws, which wasn’t mentioned. So I’ve never ordered from them again.
Yikes! Thanks for sharing!
Same here. I ordered the same and got the same
Aww, so sorry you got a bad box as well!
I mean it's not great - but it's exactly what they said it would be/what the photos showed. Probably going to be hard to move this stuff as everyone who bought this box probably got the same items.
New sub here ! Thanks for sharing !
They feel very compressed. We all do it😁
lol this serves as a good tip for consumers to not go directly to the stores and just shop secondhand since the prices for these expensive brands are so low 😂
Ugh I got this box and was so disappointed. I have ordered their Madewell multiple times and it has always been super good.
Oh, that is good to hear! I probably still won’t try anymore of their boxes though.
I ordered a sample box, and they were all the same I was so pissed off; I don't want to spend money on the same thing.
These exact items are all over What Not. Most sellers are getting about $10 per item in auctions.
Sounds accurate.
So glad to hear about parade, I have gift card I need to use
I love comfort! Hope you find some good ones to try!
Lots of summer stuff.
Yep!
Omg this box is so sad that I’m laughing not to cry
lol, it’s okay! It was for a video and hopefully it is helpful for other people 🤞
Making your money back is great....working for free stinks!!! Get it moving and go to the thrift store...lol
lol 😂
I wouldn't order again.....
Oh Courtney, so glad I did not ordered this one, these are too basic for $10
Agree!
That is painful, i really hope you get your money back and it doesn't take 3 years.
lol, I’m guessing half of it will sell in 3 years. I’ll probably give away the rest.
I think they are considering the leggings as bottoms, but that’s pretty misleading.
Oh man. Horrible but thank you for doing this .
Marie
Hmm...I think the price point is really high for these items.
Agree!
I’m sure you will make your $400 back, but would be surprised if you doubled it! Not a fan of most of what you received, but the leggings look nice. Know you know! 🤷♀️
100%
I got the starter box and not so impressed either.
I tried wholesale once, and I'll never do it again! More than not, it sucks!
Yea, I’ve never had a good wholesale box from any company, but this one might be the worst one.
I think the times that we now live in don't help...
Oh my..This is awrful. Clearly all the stuff they could not sell on their own website. You should in future check to see if duplicates and max number of dups are in a box. Colors and terrible and hard to sell, styles are just so not stylish. I wish you the best in recouping your investment. If you think about it as a learning/education for yourself and your viewers, i'ts worth it! hopefully you make more than $400 on this video from youtube! I have never bought a box like this and never plan to. I have moved into rare vintage so finding that perfect piece is my new normal.
I definitely wouldn’t have ordered this without the YT money, and hopefully it’s helpful for other resellers to see. I do feel bad for all the people that ordered it for inventory only. These companies have never been great, and I don’t think they will ever be worth it, IMO.
Looks pretty cheap and it cost way too much for what you get. You could have done better at that good place your mother went to and got you really good items way cheaper than that box. Good luck on getting some of your money back.
Can you ask for pants?
They have a separate just bottoms box!
Ouch on a dud box. Honestly I wasn't expecting the modeling of sheer bras under bright lights on this channel. 😳
lol, it’s just bras. We all wear them.
😂 Now your an underwear model!
lol, there are worse things! I’ve seen girls wear more revealing tops than these comfortable bras 🤷♀️
If you got 6, EVERYONE got 6.
I have bought from this company YEARS ago and everything they sell is the same items for everyone. NOTHING sells for me. I wasted 400 on a prana box last year the box was mainly duplicate jeans not one pair of Jean's has sold. I sold some flannels but will never buy from them again. There is no variety.
In three pieces, not worth it.
I got this box and really regret it. I do well with Helpsy's Everlane boxes. Apparently, BBTB bought out the Everlane from another Liquidation company and they went out of business. Most of the boxes I have purchased from BBTB I haven't done well with mainly because they send the SAME items to everyone.....
Yea, it sounds like a lot of people are disappointed with this wholesale company.
No,not worth the price!
Agree!
That green button down 🤢
Sorry Courtney
lol, and I have 6 of them….sigh
I think you are lucky if you break even😢
lol, I have the same feeling!
Women's buttons are on the left. But now days they are starting to change that.
Yep, definitely more inconsistent these days.
That’s a terrible box. I’m sorry.
That’s okay. Hopefully it is helpful for other people considering this wholesale company.
you got robbed.
lol, well, hopefully it’s helpful for other people.
@@commontags indeed
You are being too nice. This is a bad investment of $400. Imagine what you can do at the bins for that money. Good for content though. And a warning to whoever wass thinking of getting one.
