I'd love to know if this guy will actually collect the money for this AD:

If he does, he should get to be on the tonight show... LOL

A few hours ago it was at over $4 million. Now it's back down to $25k. When I saw it yesterday it was at $600.

Not a freak, Agro but a guy trying to come to terms probably. Hopefully he sells it for the price it states..

thanks for the link!
The guy is far from a freak!!
I would imagine going through a divorce (even if you want her gone) is somewhat traumatic. They say laughter is the best medicine. In his case, "making others laugh" looks like a pretty good prescription too !!

If you say so Tom. But a guy who puts his x-wife's dress on, poses in it, has pics taken of himself in it, and then posts it all on ebay is a FREAK in my book. He could have very easily put it on a hanger to take the photos. Yes a divorce is "traumatic" and it sucks for the guy, but that's what therapy is for.

Agro,
Did not intend my statement to become a debate. You get the last word, congratulations..

Not trying to get the last word Tom. I just don't think dressing up in your wife's dress and taking pictures of yourself is a healthy way to, as you put it, "come to terms" with a divorce. There are much better ways and outlets for seeking help during a mentally stressfull period in ones life - dressing up like a girl may be funny, but it doesn't solve the problem. Again, just my .02...

Chris - Just reading your intro I guessed it might be this guy and his dress.

Saw this on our local news last night.

Geesh, how is this guy a "freak"? He's a GENIUS for getting a $1200 used dress bid up to $15,000!! He's likely a very schrewd well-adjusted person...heck the whole story is probably made up.
