Not worth the money
I bought a small mystery box, a graphic tee with an incorrect quote and a screaming goat. The t-shirt and the goat are good items and I love them, but the mystery box is really not worth the 50$ it costs. The mystery box items were a bunch of useless stuff, a lot of candy and a sour soda. Most of the candy I didn't like, and the only non edible item that were good was the big playing cards. I don't see candy as valuable at all since it'll get eaten right away or given to others if one doesn't like them, which makes it down to 2-3 non edible items which are mostly useless stuff. I had high hopes for this box since I love vat19 and Jamie seems like a good guy. Hopefully you'll cut out the candy and get something cool and valuable in your mystery box (; The delivery was quick and smooth. This is an honest review and I've heard many other creators talk about how cheap the items in the mystery box are after I ordered.

Hi Lena! Thank you for your honest review—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and for supporting us with your purchase! We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed the graphic tee and the screaming goat (we think he's a star in his own right 😄). We also appreciate your kind words about our team and Jamie—that means a lot. We’re sorry to hear that the Mysterious Box of Mystery didn’t live up to your expectations. Our goal is always to surprise and delight with a mix of quirky, curious, and occasionally edible items that reflect the spirit of Vat19. While we understand that candy isn’t for everyone, we do consider it part of the fun and value of the box—especially since we curate treats that are unusual, rare, or nostalgic. That said, your feedback is incredibly helpful as we continue to evolve the mix of items we include. We're always experimenting and trying to strike the right balance between novelty, value, and pure weirdness—sometimes we nail it, sometimes we learn. We'll take your comments to heart as we plan future boxes, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another shot down the line. Thanks again for your support and for being part of the Vat19 community! Best, Jamie Salvatori, Owner Vat19
