Man auctions life on eBay

Some people dream about living in paradise, while other goes ahead and live the dream. But occasionally the dream ends and there is nothing else to do other than either get on with life as it is or return to where you had originally come from.

For Ian Usher, he lived the dream in Perth, Australia, until his marriage break up, and the dream was then over for him. Unable to stay down under he decided that there is no alternative other than to come back to the UK, but before he is able to do that there are few things that need sorting out.

So in order clear up his affairs in Australia as quickly as possible where else could you sell everything you own quickly and easily? He turned to eBay and has placed his entire Australian life on the auction site including a car, motor bike and his house. It is estimated that the auction could raise around $500,000 (£230,000).
