SHE thought it was something else when she picked it up in a charity shop for £3.

But little did Liv know that she’d actually stumbled across a plush toy that was going to bring in a massive profit.

And sold it on for a whopping £73 profit as it’s from 1986 and very rare

She took to her TikTok page to share her story, as she held up the soft toy in question.

“I picked him up a while back from the charity shop for £3,” she began.

“I picked him up because I actually thought he was from something different!”

However, she soon found out that the toy was actually from a show called Terror Teds, and was made way back in 1986.

“I’d never even heard of it before,” she said.

“But I did a quick eBay search while I was in the shop and saw that they go for a lot of money and they’re quite rare!”

She initially listed the bear for £85, and “waited out the sale for a couple of months”.

And now she’s accepted an offer of £76 – as she reminded viewers once again that she’d paid just £3 for it.

“Our guy has sold!!” Liv in the caption.

“Can’t believe it hahaha – it just shows the random little gems you can find when you’re out and about!

“It isn’t often I find really good profitable items but it’s great fun when you do.”

People were quick to take to the comments section, with one writing: “Oh my god I’ve seen them in my charity shop I go to!

“There was 3 of them – I know where I’m heading in the morning!”

“Omg!!! Go get them!!” Liv replied.

“That’s fricking amazing Liv – amazing find!” someone else praised.

“And incredible profit!

“He was born same year as me! He’s old!”

“Woohoo!! Love finds like this!” a third commented.

“It always happens with the most unexpected things as well!”

“Well done! I love a good rummage in the teddy basket,” someone else smiled.

“At first I thought he was Five Nights at Freddy’s.”

“Same – that’s why I originally picked him up!” Liv responded.
