Everyone loves a bargain, and one woman's secondhand find ended up with a designer touch.
TikTok user Amanda DeWitt was excited when she found her dream piece of furniture on Facebook marketplace, excitedly snapping it up for a fraction of the price.
'I found the most stunning Louis the XVI buffet on Facebook Marketplace, so obviously, I bought it,' she shared in a TikTok video.
'It's in my house. She's absolutely stunning, perfect,' the Dallas, Texas, resident gushed in the 90-second video, adding she got it for 'one-ninth' of the original price.
After colleting the marble-topped sideboard - which retails between $400 and $600 online - and taking it home, she then went to open all of the doors and draws to inspect everything.
'I'm unlocking the cabinets as one does,' she explains. 'Like checking all the draws, making sure everything is okay.'
'Please look what I found,' a stunned Dewitt continued. 'Literally no words.'
She then revealed the incredible find in the draws of the furniture, opening a door to show it full of orange Hermes boxes, and one blue box from Tiffany & Co.

'Literally no words,' she said in disbelief, taking the iconic-orange boxes out of the cabinet.
She opened one of the boxes to show a Hermes china plates in perfect condition. The gold-trimmed set included solid dessert plates with the Hermes logo in the center.
'All these plates are in perfect condition,' she gushed. 'I think there are 12 plates in total.'
'I mean, beautiful,' she declared, pulling out the plates. 'Literally what dreams are made of.'
DeWitt showed off the two designs - one, a dinner plate which retails for $250 per plate, and the other a dessert plate, which retails for $185 apiece.
'I have no idea if this china was left on accident or on purpose,' she shared.
The Tiffany & Co box contained a serving knife for a cake.
DeWitt assured viewers she did contact the woman she purchased the buffet from - and the seller responded reclaiming their forgotten designer china.

Users praised DeWitt for doing the right thing - as nice as having a full set of designer china would be
'It was fun while it lasted… but they did, in fact, ask to come to pick up everything after I messaged them about my discovery,' she explained.
In a follow up clip, the good Samaritan said she was glad she contacted the woman, because it was her and her husband's wedding china.
'I would just hate for anyone to lose their wedding china,' she shared. 'Especially collection as stunning as this one.'
Users praised DeWitt for doing the right thing - as nice as having a full set of designer china at home would be.
'I promise… Doing the right thing always pays off. I made a couple of selfish decisions in the past, and karma came for me at a later date! Honesty is fulfilling and euphoric,' one user wrote in the comments.
'That's positive karma and you'll be rewarded. Plus your conscience is clear. That's worth more than money,' chimed in someone else.
'Some of these comments worry me… you definitely did the right thing saying something to them,' agreed another.
Others think she should have kept it.
'But, who doesn't check all of the shelves before selling???' someone argued.
'This was so dumb of you,' berated another. 'If they're rich enough to forget that s**t they can get more. I would have waited one month max to see if they reached out and then started selling it.'
