A New Pair Of Earrings With A Side Of Spite

Posted by Steve Spalding in Featured | View comments

Ex-Boyfriend Jewelry is like eBay for jilted hearts. You can buy, sell, trade and otherwise pawn off the remnants of your last failed relationship to willing purchasers across the Internet. Along with the usual commerce features you would expect out of an online storefront, you can also tell the story of why these precious gifts deserve to be sold off at Fire-sale prices.





Story Time

The stories range from the banal: cheating, heartbreak and revenge, to the truly incredible, “Six months later, Mr. Thoughtful broke up with me out of the blue, over the phone, while I was recovering from brain surgery.” After reading some of these you realize that “‘buying stuff” is barely the point, it is the sort of catharsis that anyone who has ever loved and lost can get behind.

One last thing for the bargain shoppers in the audience. If you look hard enough, some of the items are being given away for free. The money isn’t half as important as the platform to tell someone off. All in all, if you’re in the market for an emotional white sale — this site is worth a look.
