There are so many weird stuffs you can stumble upon on eBay. Now here’s a cool way to get over your romantic partner and land a spot on Yahoo’s Odd News section.
Meet Ian Usher, a 44 year-old Brit who moved to Perth, Australia in the name of love and now selling practically all his belongings at eBay in the name of love (lost) once again.
The Telegraph reports Usher is selling everything including his three-bedroom house, car, jet ski, motorcycle, job in a rug store (with employer consent) and even his friends to the highest bidder so he can forget the bitter memories he had in Australia after a failed 5-year marriage. You can check out the complete details at www.alife4sale.com.
This so-called “life package†is his clever exit strategy as well as starting fund to start all over again. Usher expects to get £230,000 out of this online bidding.
So if you’re bored with your life, want to experience the adventures of Usher from a first-person perspective, and most importantly have enough money to win the bid, this whole weeklong bidding fiesta will kick off on June 22. Wife sold separately.

I think he should not do it. You are a handsome fellow and you deserve better than what you had, face it life is not a bowl of cherries darlin but you can go on with your life. Even if he sales everything his heart will still be very empty. You know I have been where he is too, but I survived and now I remarried and I am very happy with the new love of my life, lets face you don’t need eharmony to find the right person for you, you need to follow your heart because I know that sometimes you can’t help with who you fall in love with. I all say is give yourself the life you deserve without feeling so depressed. Thanks for reading this take care.

I don’t think he should do that too… what i think he should do is learn from it and continue with life as it is no matter how bitter it is. Face life! not run away from it..
thats only my opinion though

I think he’s doing something original and will follow his listing on ebay. I’m always amazed at why people sell on ebay and (in this instance) what people will sell too.
I’m sure he will still keep in contact with his friends. He will find another job. All he really is doing is selling off all his stuff with a great story behind it. Cause of this story I’m sure he will get plenty of attention from people bidding on his stuff.
I can’t wait to see how much he gets for his stuff.

Selling friends? I’d like to know how that’s done, as I have a few I’d like to sell, myself.
