| For
those still wary of shopping online, here is a farmhouse
for thought. Jammu resident Madhushree Singh has listed
online a farmhouse and land for sale in Rajasthan?s Nawalgarh.
The starting price: Rs 11.30 crore!
This makes the 79,000 sq m plot,
with a farmhouse, the most expensive item ever listed on
eBay India. The entry has received over 2,200 unique visitors
till date.
A premier online marketplace,
eBay was launched in India in 2000. The portal was earlier
known as Baazee.com.
The house, located in the heart
of Nawalgarh town, has a commanding view and overlooks the
farm from a height of 35-40 feet. The property was once
used as an outhouse and farm by the erstwhile rulers of
Nawalgarh.
Says Madhushree Singh: ?I have
inherited the farmhouse and due to financial challenges
would like to dispose of it and pick up a place in the city.
The response on eBay has been amazing. I have received more
than 100 offers and most of them are from the US. In India,
I was contacted by buyers from Delhi, Mumbai and Jaipur.?
?Being married to an army officer,
I have to move every two years. Selling on eBay is convenient
as I am able to manage my shop from the remotest part of
the country and at the same time reach out to international
buyers,? she adds.
