Buy evidence of my husband's adultery on eBay
CANBERRA (Reuters) - An Australian woman has taken revenge on her cheating husband by putting a photograph of his lover's underpants up for sale on the auction site eBay.

In the listing the woman says she is selling a picture of a pair of lacy black knickers and an empty condom wrapper "size small" found in her bed after her husband had an affair with another woman.

The seller -- identified on eBay only as annastella007 -- provides a rather unflattering description of the knickers.

"They are so huge I thought they may make someone a nice shawl or, even better, something for Halloween perhaps."

The eBay listing, entitled "Empty condom packet & a photo of 'The Tart's' knickers," also includes a detailed account of the events leading up to the discovery.

24. i'm seeing a 'non-paying buyer' resulting from her auction...
but i'm thinking that ebay's system will ding her for the fees, and then let her apply for a refund if/when the winning bidder doesn't pay up.

26. Maybe it's Snapple again!

Just like they bought a bridesmaid spot in that woman's wedding last month.

Perhaps their newest flavor is "Dirty Aussie Bastard Lemonade"?

;)

29. 399,469 views so far....
93 bids, high bid is $25,500 ... unbelievable!

I hope she set limits om who could bid... a few posts above mentioned non-paying bidders, but Ebay can and will collect the money. Your bid is a binding contract to purchase.....

31. i got to wonder
the wife makes catty comments about The Other Woman's size, but if she's so unattractively fat why was her man sleeping with her? sometimes things just go their natural course, and if mrs. catty vengeance gets her rocks off by making a big public stink about it, good for her, hope it makes her feel superior.
