For sale on eBay: 'Eight unopened Christmas presents from my cheating boyfriend'



Heartbroken Leanne Joseph has listed her unopened presents on eBay after discovering just three days before Christmas that her boyfriend was cheating on her.

Miss Joseph, 24, of Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, was shattered when a workmate claimed to have slept with her boyfriend of three years.

She could not face opening the presents he had bought for her and has posted them for sale on eBay as a job lot.



Not such a merry Christmas: Leanne Joseph is selling unopened presents from her love-rat boyfriend on eBay

She has pledged to donate the proceeds of the auction, which today crashed through the £200 mark, to a local hospice.

Miss Joseph said she was 'gobsmacked' when a friend revealed she had slept with her boyfriend.

'We had been together for three years,' she said.



Her eBay sales pitch reads: 'Here for sale are a lot of unwanted, unopened Christmas presents from my very ex-boyfriend.

'We fell out on the 22nd and we will definitely not be getting back together, so I do not want anything he had chosen for me this year.

'This is a bargain for someone as he always bought me nice gifts.

'One is guaranteed to be jewellery - he always got me something nice - and perfume. Everything will be nice.

'I am into pink girly items, bling and designer labels, so the gifts will reflect this. There was always a saucy little thong somewhere in there.'

Miss Joseph declined a potential buyer's request to also auction the 'personal' card her ex-boyfriend had given her along with the presents. The auction ends tomorrow at 12.14pm.



An eBay search for 'Christmas present from boyfriend' returns Miss Joseph's advert and that of another seller claiming she too has split with her boyfriend and cannot bear to open her presents.

The seller, who goes under the name 'angesgem' is auctioning three packages wrapped in red paper.

A second spurned girlfriend is also selling the unopened presents given to her by her ex-boyfriend

On the site she says: 'Here we have three unopened Christmas presents. They were from my now ex boyfriend and I have no desire whatsoever to open anything from him.

'I normally get some kind of jewellery so am assuming the small one is possibly a ring or earrings, but may be completely wrong.

'He was quite good at buying something I may have mentioned while shopping and had a good sense of humour.'
