Angry Wife Gets Revenge Via eBay
Wednesday, June 22, 2005

Tim Shaw has gotten in trouble again — and this time it counts.

In February, as previously reported in Out There, the obnoxious British shock jock was suspended "indefinitely" from his radio DJ job for the on-air trashing of his boss' house.

Last Thursday night, he was doing his usual 10 p.m.-to-1 a.m. shift at Birmingham-based Kerrang! 105.2 FM — here's his bio page — when he told pin-up girl Jodie Marsh (search) on air that he'd be willing to leave his wife and two kids for her.

Unfortunately, his long-suffering wife was listening — and quickly put up his Lotus Esprit Turbo sports car for sale on eBay.

"I need to get rid of this car immediately — ideally in the next 2-3 hours before my cheating [jerk] husband gets home to find it gone and all his belongings in the street," Hayley Shaw wrote on the eBay description page, which as of Wednesday afternoon was still up.

"I am the registered owner and I have the log book. Please only buy if you can pick up tonight," she added.


The auction lasted exactly five minutes and three seconds. The car, estimated to be worth $45,000, sold for 50 pence (90 cents) and was soon driven away by a buyer who wishes to remain anonymous.

"I am sick of him disrespecting this family for the sake of his act," Hayley Shaw told a Birmingham newspaper. "The car is his pride and joy, but the idiot put my name on the log book [registration], so I just sold it. I didn't care about the money. I just wanted to get him back."

Last July, according to The Independent of London, Shaw upset his then-pregnant wife by saying on-air that he fantasized about sex with her sister. When she tearfully called to complain, he put her on air as well.

A month later, he nearly choked to death when a sausage he was simulating a sex act on broke in half.

A Kerrang! 105.2 spokesman said Tuesday that Shaw had taken a few days off to try to patch things up with his wife, who told newspapers "there is no hope for a reconciliation."
 
Damn that's funny. I can only hope the guy who bought it is a 16 year old kid who happened to be online at the time.

FYI: Here's a pic of Jodie:

I wish that I had known about it. I would have gladly bid 95 pence. Hopefully I could have found someone in England to pick it up for me.
Yeah -- but at 50p its almost right on the exchange rate for another of my favorite movie quotes:

"I'll buy that for a dollar!"

Surely that should have been somewhere in the 90's on the AFI list.

Guys like this idiot and Howard Stern get what they deserve. If you act like an ass continuously, don't whine when what goes around comes around-and try to say "it was just a joke".

90 cents for a Lotus-damn-my dad is still kicking himself for not buying a Ferrari Dino for $5,000 in the late 70s.......
