Cashing In On Your Ex

Very well produced piece. Check out this pod: http://current.com/items/90942192_through-stills-of-life-the-annenberg-space-for...

To all you ladies who think this is a smart way of cashing in for some money, you should realize how much thought and time goes into getting those gifts. I understand there are such things as sour break ups, but for a time, that gift meant the world to you, if not the person, so why not keep it? Being a guy, I don't really get diamond rings or gold necklaces, but I promise you I have stored away the even more valuable love letters, pictures and everything that that person gave me to bring a smile to my face. Money is not everything, I guarantee you.

Ew. Sickening what people will do for money. Here's a suggestion, GIVE IT AWAY TO CHARITY.

hey, how about a website that allows you to cash in on the blockbuster rewards points accrued by your significant other on YOUR rental card?

any interested venture capitalists?

honestly, what is wrong with some people??

if you ask me, selling something that someone else bought for you as a gesture of affection is kind of sick. if keeping those earrings is SUCH a burden on you, why not just give them away?

this is great, i would love to sell some of the gifts i have got from my ex's, but its all trashy. i just keep it all in a box stuffed under my bed, out of sight.

I dont think this is a good idea.
Those jewelry prolly has the karma of previous owners.
I would not buy any of those.

It's always been interesting to me that people have emotional attachments to inanimate objects. To me, if it's not alive I can only consider it on a economic level; not because I had a great/bad time with someone with a particular object.
Possibly, another methodology of Capitalism to institutionalize consumerism through the media.

bleh... I think I just vomited in my own mouth...

I think my favorite part was when the website creator told the story of how she took her ex's jewlery to the pawn shop and he offered her $70 for everything.

The look on her face when she thought about all the dudes she did just to get $70 out of the deal... priceless

Someone find Megahn Perry's ex-husband and get the REAL meaning behind "great guy" "but I was too young"

@squidteeth

Right on. Exactly what I thought and that is when I was officially turned off by this whole thing. I was already knocking on the door of "turned off" from her first appearance on camera.

The pod is very well produced, but I hate the story. This girl shouldn't get any attention.

A creepy site for your creepy exes.

"I was married breifly when i was young

...and i was just... not ready to be married."

=
I cheated on him.
and kept the rings.

and now i'm selling them for money i dont deserve.

Now if there were only a site to sell all the boxes of now relatively worthless pictures and letters.

This is an excellent pod! I love the music and it was interesting and very well produced.

WHY WHY WHY DID SOMEONE BROKE YOUR HEART OR IS ALL ABOUT THE BENJAMIN. COME ON, YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT.

That's great. I had some messy break ups with left over jewelry that I don't where and wouldn't after the relationship was over and I had a pawn shop tell me the same thing. I just ended up giving it to friends.

I was turned off by the woman who started the site. I found her unappealing. The pod however was great.

I think a lot of the success and popularity that will come from the site is due to the fact that the users get to post and read gossip.

dang why didn't i think of this, i sold my ex stuff to the pawn shop

i do not wear jewelry

but sweet website i guess...
