Channel Ten star left devastated as she makes shocking discovery about her partner's finances: 'We could have had a house deposit' READ MORE: Melanie Bracewell drops the F-bomb in front of Anthony Albanese By Kinta Walsh-cotton For Daily Mail Australia Published: 23:21 EDT, 22 May 2024 | Updated: 23:21 EDT, 22 May 2024 e-mail View comments Network Ten star Melanie Bracewell made a heart-stopping discovery about her partner Shaun McCullough's finances which led to the pair losing out on thousands. The New Zealand comedian, 28, took to TikTok recently to reveal her boyfriend had some bad luck re-selling valuable virtual 'stickers' for the online multiplayer game Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO). Shaun discovered an in-game item he previously bought and sold for US$12 (AU$18) was now worth US$42,832 (AU$64,668) on the online marketplace.
If Shaun had held onto the downloadable content, he and Melanie would have been sitting on a sizeable chunk of a house or apartment deposit . Melanie, who co-hosts the comedy show The Cheap Seats, explained: 'My boyfriend is going through his CS:GO collection of things that he's sold and stickers he's customised his gun with and seeing how much they're worth now.' Barely able to contain her laughter, she turned the camera to her boyfriend, who was at his computer looking at his CS:GO profile, and asked him to explain what had happened.
Shaun went on to tell viewers that 'back in the day' he bought a 'nice little' AK-47 skin for his in-ga.
