Famous on eBay 2

So here's another one...
I couldn't find the actual listing on eBay for this one, but it was on the http://www.comcast.net/news/strange today (and as it's the only news I read...lol) So anyways this woman is selling her house with herself included! It's crazy:
The article reads as such:

Interested Homebuyer Can Get House ... And Wife

(CBS) DENVER A woman has opened up bidding on eBay for both her Denver home and herself as a wife.The opening bid is being set at $600,000, and the bidder who gets chosen (presumably a male) would get Deborah Hale's furnished house in Washington Park and her hand in marriage.
Hale, 48, said decided to sell her home in Washington Park on eBay in hopes she might find a husband. She said she tried dating services, blind dates and connections through friends, all to no avail."I'm looking for what every person out there is looking for, and that's true love," Hale told CBS4.
Hale created a Web site to showcase the house for sale and posted pictures of herself. eBay offered an opportunity for a "non-binding" transaction, which according to her site "provides a means to advertise with neither party being obligated to complete the transaction.""If they like the house, I'm open to that, of course, because the goal was to sell the house," Hale said. "If they like me and not the house, I'm open to that as well."
On the Web site, she writes "I hope to find that special man, who wants to build a life with me and share this special home with me. Ideally that man is between 40 and 60 years old, is well educated and well spoken, and has a professional career."
Hale's neighbors said that at an asking price of $600,000, any man would be crazy to pass up the deal."I think if you buy the house and the wife, you have a ton of kids on the street already, so you have friends for the future," said a neighbor.
Interested buyers and suitors can apply either online or by mail.
Hale says she will make her choice on Valentine's Day.
