Why are you selling this for so little?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seller sighed and said, \u201cIt\u2019s actually my husband\u2019s car. He ran off with his young secretary. Last week I got a message from him that said: <em>\u2018In Miami. Need money.

I\u2019ll find another dress. This day is about you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days later, they found her mother a beautiful replacement.
