"I wanted it to be irreverent like 'Sex in the City,' or like what would happen if Beyonce got dumped, what would she do about it.
Encouraged by her friends, the Australian-born Acton decided to set up a kind of eBay for bitter brides and disgruntled grooms and other broken-hearted, the New York Post reported.All this pathetic 'Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all' was sappy. I wanted something spunky," she said.

Website helps jilted lovers discard unwanted gifts from bad relationships"They need to move on and not cry in a pile of tissues, eating ice cream."
The sellers are required to post the "real world" price of the item, the discounted "break-up" price, a photo of the item, and have to blog about their break-up.
Tara Jackson, 25, a product-development consultant from Lower East Side, disposed of a piece of jewellery within a week.
She said that she loved the diamond bracelet her long-time boyfriend gifted her a few years ago, but after he dumped her, it simply had to go.
"I would kill myself if I ran into him and I was wearing it," she said.
After selling the 500 dollars bracelet for 230 dollars, she felt she had taken a bit of revenge.
"So in a way, the site was me getting the last laugh," she said, calling the Web site a "gathering of the sisterhood," although guys are also on it," she added.

Happy 48th birthday, Michelle Obama! While the first lady has been known to rock everything from dramatic, fashion-forward Jason Wu gowns to Narciso Rodriguez silk ensembles, she's also a fan of affordable fashion. In recent years, she's donned bright J. Crew sweaters, colorful H&M dresses and trendy Asos.com printed shirts.
We're celebrating Michelle's special day by looking back at some of our favorite looks from the past year:
Michelle Obama is ready to do any experiments, if they do not go beyond her own personal style. The combination of bright colors and monochrome outfits, colorful prints and shiny textures, the style of 60th and luxurious evening wear - all made a special style of Michelle Obama. She has managed to become one of the most stylish women of our time, while choosing his main criterion for self-restraint, which miraculously did not become a hindrance to her love for all the bright and unusual.
"For me fashion is fun, and it’s supposed to help you feel good about yourself," the first lady told Women's Health in 2009. "I think that’s what all women should focus on: what makes them happy and feel comfortable and beautiful. I wear what I love. Sometimes people like it, sometimes they don’t. I’m fine with that.”

Queen's Award for Jewelry Thanh Truc won 100 million in cash and some other gifts. Candidates First runner Kim Anh won 70 million and second runner-Hong Kim Thuan won 50 million.
“All of the guests were men; some were even older than my dad. I happened to know some of them, and they were really surprised to see me as they knew I was not a hostess. I was so ashamed.
Through these acquaintances, I found out that anyone who joined that dinner had to pay US$ 200.”
According to Hoa, many of these young contestants passed out while serving these men, as they were exhausted from a long practice day and were brought straight to the restaurant without being allowed to rest.
Cao Thai Ha won best performance .
“Those who fainted were taken out, woken up, and forced to go back and serve again.
When too many of us collapsed, the restaurant brought us down to its basement and gave us food. We had to serve again after we felt better.”
Hoa said she would not have signed up for the contest had she known she had to do this.
Cao Thai Ha, who won Best Jewelry Wearer, said she could not take anymore at the party and had to call her family to come and take her home.
“My family had to confront the organizers and get into an argument with them in order to bring me home, because as contestants we can’t come and go as we want.”
Pham Thi Hien, another contestant, said she had to lie that she had an eye allergy to avoid the dinner party, “I called Dinh Hong Son, my manager, for help.”
Son said she came to the restaurant immediately, but its staff was keeping Hien’s ID and said if they returned it, they would be fined by the contest’s organizers.
