Man puts wife's brain on eBayA man has put his wife's brain up for sale on the eBay as a joke.
Kevin Dulake says the brain is brand new and has never been used.
His ad also features a photo of his wife Verena's head and boasted her brain is "still in its box".
Kevin paid £1.40 to put the ad on the site. He told punters the brain was an "unwanted gift" and said he was happy to ship it abroad.
Nearly 200 people read the ad in its first week, but only four made bids. The highest for £2.20, saysThe Sun.
Kevin said: "My wife is always saying she needs her head examined to have married me, so I decided to get my own back. Very few people were interested in her brain - and I won't let her forget it."
Verena said: "At least it got some bids. No one would want Kevin's brain unless they were a psychiatrist."

you know, there is a category on eBay for really weird stuff. It's worth a trip just to see how bizarre our world can be.

A sergeant found himself on the island of Borneo during World War II. He stumbled into a village and was horrified to discover the cannibals were selling human brains for consumption. His interpreter told him that the cannibals sold the brains of soldiers and he better get out of their.
The sergeant realized he had plenty of firepower and he was intrigued by the displays and asked the interpreter to tell him what the signs said. The interpreter began reading: “Lieutenant’s brains, 25 cents a pound. Captain’s brains 35 cents a pound. Major’s brains, 38 cents a pound. Colonel’s brains, 42 cents a pound. General’s brains, $250 a pound.”
The sergeant sputters, “Why are general’s brains so expensive?”
The interpreter asked the cannibal, turned to the sergeant and reported, “He says to you know how many of those idiots I have to kill to get a pound of brains?”
I know this probably doesn’t apply to Mr Dulake’s wife, but it appears to apply to Weasley Cluck.
