Kelly Greaves says she鈥檚 plotting a 鈥渜uiet and a private revenge,鈥 after her boyfriend jokingly listed her on eBay 鈥 a prank that even led to a $119,000 bid.

After being friends for ten years, the London resident said the couple鈥檚 humour is 鈥渄efinitely鈥 why their dating relationship works.

鈥淚 think we got similar personalities. We鈥檙e both quick witted,鈥 she told CTVNews.ca. 鈥淚 think I鈥檓 one of the only few who dare to rib him back and such.鈥

鈥淲e鈥檒l try and humiliate each other 鈥 in a nice kind of way,鈥 Greaves, the director of a heating company, added. 鈥淏ut I think that鈥檚 what we like about each other. We like to stand up to each other and like to poke fun."

Greaves鈥 boyfriend Dale Leeks, a private landscaper, had jokingly put her up for bidding as a 鈥渕iniature collectable鈥 on eBay, as revenge after the two playfully whipped each other in a horse riding shop.

In the ad, he compared Greaves to a used car that made 鈥渃onstant whining noise鈥 and whose 鈥渞ear end leaks a bit but nothing that can鈥檛 be plugged.鈥

The post garnered 81,000 views in less than a day and even prompted a $119,000 bid before eBay removed the ad, citing an attempt to sell human body parts or remains.

When it came to describing Leeks, Greaves didn鈥檛 mince words either.

鈥淒ave is a little bit of a cave man and doesn鈥檛 do a lot around the house. He鈥檚 a bit like a naughty child,鈥 she laughed. 鈥淗e鈥檚 very caring. But he鈥檚 lazy, I will say that.鈥

But she says he鈥檚 not lazy where it counts. 鈥淢y kids absolutely adore him which is lovely,鈥 she said, adding that they鈥檙e raising children together from previous relationships.

Before the eBay ad was seen by anyone else, Leeks showed it to Greaves and the two laughed about it. Greaves even posted the eBay post on Facebook to 鈥渟how him up鈥 to her friends as if to say, 鈥渓ook what I got to put up with now.鈥

鈥(But) all of his friends were liking it and thought it was hilarious 鈥 and my friends thought it was hilarious,鈥 she said. Greaves joked that she felt sad to see that none of them were bidding.

She said: 鈥溾橝ww, I鈥檓 not getting any bids鈥 鈥 which I think that鈥檚 ultimately what he wanted. He didn鈥檛 want it to go very far.鈥

When the post blew up online, she said they were both taken aback. She felt a 鈥渓ittle bit shocked,鈥 and a bit 鈥渦ncomfortable.鈥 However, she quickly took it in stride.

Greaves was quick to add that the prank is just one sliver of their relationship.

鈥淲e both get each other,鈥 she said, adding that Leeks understands her interests, including her love of riding horses. In fact, it was their trip to a horse riding shop that inspired Leeks鈥 prank, she said.

Greaves thinks that critics of her boyfriend鈥檚 prank are 鈥渂eing a little bit too sensitive.鈥

She stressed that there was nothing alarming about their relationship and that his prank wasn鈥檛 an endorsement of human trafficking, as some people said.

鈥淭hat鈥檚 not what was going on. But I can see their point of view. But Dale is not P.C. [politically correct] at all. If you get offended easily, stay away from him.鈥

She added that running their own businesses has helped her and Leeks develop thick skin.

鈥淚f it offended me, I never would have gotten far (being together) because it would have been over a long time ago,鈥 she said.
