A wife who recently discovered her husband’s infidelity uses the ultimate revenge ‘card’. A woman in Japan put up her husband’s enviable collection of Yu-Gi-Oh! trading cards on sale on the Yahoo! Auctions website.
The listing contains a total of 26 multi-pack boxes of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, at least 25 of which appear to be unopened. Many of them are from early series in the game’s history, and the set includes packs from the Magic Ruler, Pharoah’s Servant, Curse of Anubis, Thousand Eyes Bible, Mythological Age, and Spell of Mask booster sets. The cards are posted along with the following message:
“This is my first listing on Yahoo! Auctions. As an act of revenge against my husband for cheating on me, I have decided to sell his collection. The items are unopened, so I’d be happy if I can get a good price for these…The boxes have been on a shelf with a cover over them, so they aren’t even dusty. I don’t have much familiarity with collectible card games, but to my untrained eyes the items have no damage or tearing, so please accept their condition as-is. Thank you.”
Bidding opened on Saturday at just one yen. Now, the bids reached 6.5 million yen (RM246,479.87). The woman received mixed reactions to her actions.
“I know he cheated on her, but isn’t it going too far to just sell his belongings like that?”
“If he’s going to be angry at someone, he should be angry at himself for cheating, not his wife.”
“A single unopened early series box can go for several tens of thousands of yen by itself, so this is going to sell for a ton of money.”
“I wonder if the husband is one of the people bidding, trying to get his collection back.”
Some comments even contain some nerdy and hilarious Yu-Gi-Oh! reference.
“Did the other woman use a Change of Heart card on him?”
“And then his wife played Burst Stream of Destruction.”
Considering the items are collectors classics and some still unopened, the price is likely to climb higher still before the auction ends this Saturday.’
