Here’s a way you can feel like a “porch pirate” without the risk of actually breaking the law by stealing.

There is a photo of a vending machine at a train station in Germany making the rounds on social media. This vending machine is not selling candy, or drinks or even travel necessities. It is selling unclaimed, unopened mystery packages.

These items in the packages would apparently cost more to ship back and restock than the retailer thinks they are worth. So, they are giving people the chance at buying them to get a surprise purchase.

The vending machine is called the “Mystery-O-Matic” and the post does not specify how much the packages cost.

People in the comments are calling it a micro version of “Storage Wars.”
