Sydney: Bidding at an eBay auction selling the 'life' of a man in Australia currently stands at over Dh7.7 million.
Ian Usher, 44, is offering his house, job, clothes, friends and a host of other items to the winning bidder. Bidding began on Sunday, with the starting price of one Australian dollar.
Usher, who moved to Australia from the UK six years ago, decided to put his entire life up for grabs following the break up of his marriage.
He said he was auctioning his life as "a package". As well as his house and car, the winner of the bid will receive all of Usher's possessions, including his music collection and an introduction to his friends, as well as a motorbike, jet ski and spa.
"Hi there, my name is Ian Usher, and I have had enough of my life! I don't want it any more! You can have it if you like!," reads his website, which has a link to eBay for bidders.
"When it's over, I will just walk out the front door, take my wallet, my passport and start a new life," he said.
Usher said his ex-wife had heard of his auction. "Her last comment was, 'it seems a bit mental to me'," he said.
The auction closes on June 29, and has currently received 114 bids.
