Heartbroken after his wife, Laura, left him for another man, Usher came up with the idea of making a clean break and auctioning his entire life on eBay.
Everything in his airy three-bedroom, two-bathroom house in Perth, Australia, reminded him of Laura, he declared. So he would sell it all, and walk out with only his wallet and passport, and the clothes on his back. As of Sunday, the open-plan house in a leafy suburb - along with Usher's Mazda car, Kawasaki motorbike, Jet Ski and parachuting gear - belongs to a mystery bidder. The buyer, who uses the name "mslmcc" on the online auction site, lives in Australia and is bona fide, unlike some hoaxsters who made bogus bids of up to AU$2.2 million (US$2.1 million) last week.
