Molly Mae's highly anticipated clothing line Maebe sold out in minutes after its first release - but now cheeky shoppers are flogging it online for huge profits.

Fans have been left raging that they missed out on the limited first drop of the new clothing range that included a blazer, detailed jeans, tops, cosy knit cardigans and oversized shirts. Molly Mae also hosted a pop-up shop in London ahead of the launch to promote her brand, where shoppers could purchase limited edition pieces including printed vests and tank tops, while getting a closer look at what is to come in the first launch.

The event was free, but tickets sold out within minutes as fans were desperate to see what the 25-year-old entrepreneur had designed, as well as get their hands on the items. But now, those who lost out on the chance to get first dibs on the sought-after garments have been left fuming with greedy sellers marking up the clothes for five times the price.

T-shirts that retailed for £40 are being sold on Vinted for £120, while a vest marked up as £30 is going for £75. Other sellers are also flogging the signed Molly Mae thank you cards from the event for up to £25 a card.

Shoppers have taken to social media to share their disbelief over the prices, with one TikToker, who goes by the name @bethclark19xo, shared a video of the vest that was sold at the event for £30, and then being sold on Vinted for £150. She captioned the video: "Why was that too predictable," followed by three laughing emojis and added: "£150 in case anyone was looking."

People were quick to comment on the video, as one person wrote: "Surely no one is going to be paying £100/£150 for this," to which the TikToker replied she'd seen someone selling a signed card for £60. Another simply wrote: "Not fair," followed by a string of sad faces.

The note, which was a thank you by Molly Mae and signed had been given out for free, but people have been trying to cash in and make a profit over selling them, much to the disgust of many fans. Molly fans have also been left baffled over the sizing of the Maebe items on sale, with some slamming the unfair sizing as "disgusting".

Many were quickly left disappointed by the sizing and prices of her products. There are 14 items of clothing for sale on the site, which sold out in minutes. However, as part of the promotion for Maebe, Molly-Mae revealed she wears an XL or 2XL jeans from her brand.

A size guide was also published, that shows a large is classed as a UK size 12, an extra large at a UK size 14 and a 2XL at size 16. Her products range from a 2XS, which is a UK 4, and 4XL, which is a UK 20. In response to the sizing, one fan said: "Does make me quite sad that a UK size 12 is marked as a 'large'."

Another added: "That's disgusting." Someone else commented: "So nothing for the plus size girlies? That's a shame. I was really looking forward to it!" A fourth wrote: "Wish it would fit me but nvm." Another shared: "I'm sorry but what the f*** is this molly-mae? I'm a size 18 and in Primark I fit into their XL but if I was to buy from maebe I'd be a 3XL? I thought we were over different brands using individual sizing measurements?"

However, others defended the 25-year-old as one said: "The prices aren’t even bad, she’s selling nice quality basics you’ll have for years not £3 Shein tops." Another agreed: "If you don’t like the price don’t buy. The material of clothing is very high you could feel the quality when we went to the pop up store. Roll on 7pm." A third supported Molly on her new venture: "On the plus side this collection is stunning you’ve smashed it."
