A man in the UK tried to get away from his whining wife by putting her up for sale on eBay. When you have a barney with your other half, you might expect a bit of sulking, stomping off to the pub or stealing the last slice of cake. But what you likely wouldn’t expect is to find yourself listed on eBay.
It all started on Wednesday evening, when 33-year-old Simon O’Kane, a resident of Yorkshire’s Wakefield, returned home and said he was not feeling too well. The telecom engineer went on to post a picture of Leandra on the auction site alongside an advertisement titled “used wife”, detailing his reasons for selling her and the pros and cons of the “purchase”.

The post, read: “For sale one wife. Not new has been used but still got some good miles left in her. Reason for selling… I’ve had my fill and feel like there has to be someone me (oh dear God please let there be). He was stunned when the bids hit 65,880 pounds within two days and his wife, said she “wanted to kill him” when she discovered what he did the next day.
Simon said they did get a few “pervy” messages from potential buyers asking to see more photos, but said most of the responses were funny.
