A Briton put up his wife for sale on e-commerce portal eBay in an ad modeled on an ad for used cars. Within hours, the bids hit nearly 66,000 pounds and his wife declared that she wanted to kill him.
It all started last Wednesday evening, when Simon O’Kane (33) is a resident of Wakefield, Yorkshire. He returned home on Wednesday evening and said he was not feeling too well.
He later said that she was burning the candle at both ends and was basically just whinning at me, though I thought that I am going to put up his wife on sale. His wife, 27-year-old Leandra, a mother of two, apparently was not much concerned.
As per the report of Daily Express that the telecom engineer visit the post a picture of Leandra on the auction site with a titled “used wife”, detailing his reasons for selling her.
The post read as: “For sale one wife. Not new has been used but still got some good miles left in her. Reason for selling… I have had my fill and feel like there has to be someone me (oh dear God please let there be).
He highlighted her on the post as “decent bodywork and skills in the kitchen”.
He further wrote on the post that “Good points: Body work and paint work still in decent shape and has some skills in the kitchen”. He also wrote about the bad points about her wife on the post as “Bad points: Often makes this noise that cannot be silenced unless you order brand new shiny parts of metal.
He further wrote that Sometimes them [sic] skills in the kitchen result in you ending up in hospital. All in all not a bad model for the year, I’m sure some lucky guy will get lots of use. Offers welcome, may consider a part exchange for a younger model.
He was shocked to the post, when the bids hit 65,880 pounds within two days. His wife said that she wanted to kill him when she discovered what he did the next day.
A beauty Therapist – Leandra said that I wanted to kill him. Everyone saw it and were laughing their heads off. Not only did he put me up for sale but also he used such a bad photo.
Simon said that I was disappointed the listing was taken down by the eBay, mainly because I wanted to see how high it would go, but it was for a laugh so I was not actually gutted.
