Bidding Climbs to $85K for eBay Wedding Dress – Can You Spot the Reason?

Share X Facebook Email

A woman is selling her $2,600 wedding dress on eBay for close to six-figures, and the garment comes complete with “the stench of betrayal”…

KFORย has more on the unlikely story:

Samantha Wragg hadnโ€™t had time to dust off her wedding dress and take it to the cleaners before she found out her new husband was cheating on her.

So, what did the British woman who works in social media do? List her dress onย eBayย to help foot the bill she said her husband has left her with for the divorce.

Heeding the advice of her brother, she spiced up the listing by revealing some of the dirty details, she reports on herย blog.

In the days since, bidding has climbed from the initial $2,600 asking price to cover what her parents paid for it new in 2014 to roughly $85,000 with less than two days to go.

Wrapp apologizes for only including two pictures with the listing but, when the cheating came to light, โ€œI pretty much burned/permanently deleted everything with his disgusting face on it!โ€

POPSUGARย notes the โ€œgeniusโ€ post mixes details about the size 6 Art Couture ivory lace dress (โ€œGreat condition but needs dry cleaning before wearing to get rid of the stench of betrayalโ€) with her own story (โ€œHope this dress brings you a lot more happiness than it brought me in the end and if not โ€ฆ well you can always sell it on here!โ€).

ITV Newsย reports the 28-year-old has forgiven her ex-husband in spite of his โ€œterrible and really hurtful mistakeโ€ and she is โ€œvery happy now so I hope he is too.โ€

In all the messages of support, she said sheโ€™s even had a couple marriage proposals.
