Aussie Bloke Tries To Sell Ex-Wife’s Wedding Dress For Fishing Gear And Beer

Not the worst way to get some cash

Getting rid of mementos from past relationships can sometimes be an emotional experience. The mere sight of seeing a photo or piece of clothing can spark feelings of regret or unhappiness.

But not for Scott.

This legend has decided that his ex-wife's wedding dress is taking up too much room in his place and he'd rather go fishing and enjoy a few cold ones - so he's posted an advert on a Facebook page for people in Darwin looking to buy, swap or sell various items.

Scott is selling the dress for $200, which is a steal considering he paid ten times that much initially. According to NT News, the post reads: "I was actually going to have a dress burning party when the divorce became final, but then thought some lucky bloke would be glad to pay only $200 instead of $2000 for a dress.

"The dress cost about $2000 that my ex-father-in-law swore up and down he would pay for, but didn't, so I got stuck with the bill - luckily I only got stuck with his daughter for eight years.

"I think it's funny that one picture makes it look like the chest plate off an Imperial Storm Trooper. Personally, I think it looks like a $2000 shower curtain, but what do I know about this?"

But he saved his best moment for last when making the final sell to potential buyers: "Ladies, you won't regret this. You may regret the dude you marry, but not the dress."

It's not the worst way to claw back some funds after splashing out on a wedding that didn't end happily ever after. But it seems like Scott isn't the only one looking to get rid of old memories.

Dan Campbell posted a savage ad on Gumtree after his mate's marriage ended because the wife was allegedly cheating. The hilarious ad reads: "Wedding Dress for Bride Seeking Eventual Infidelity."

It adds: "Due to be married soon? Not planning on staying faithful? Want to sleep with one of your soon-to-be husband's closest friends? Then THIS is the wedding dress for you!

"This stunning, tuille swathed, ivory bridal gown has a proven track record of producing an adulterous, deceitful, double-crossing and traitorous soulmate.

"A one of a kind garment designed by Benedict Arnold, believed to be derived from the very cloth Judas Iscariot himself wore to the Garden of Gethsemane to betray the only son of God - Jesus Christ."

Well, hell hath no fury like a woman (or man) scorned.

Hopefully these guys either got managed to get some closure, or got enough cash to go fishing and get some beer.
