MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- A former Florida State University student is looking to pay off her college debt by selling the very thing that got her into it - her diploma.

Stephanie Ritter, who attended FSU from 2007 to 2011,  is selling her diploma and "college experience" for $50,000 on ebay in order to pay off her school debt.

Ritter used various comments to accentuate her frustration of being underemployed since graduation by referring to her Bachelor of Arts Degree as, "Never been used to get a job before!"

She posted various uses for it including, "Write on your resume that you have it," "Pose proudly next to it for a Facebook picture," and "If your name is also Stephanie Ritter and you have $50,000 laying around for a really solid joke!"

Ritter's selling point is that by buying it, it saves time for other people wanting to get a degree.

She posted, "Why waste four years of your life going to a state school for a piece of paper when you can just buy mine? I graduated from Florida State University in 2011 and have yet to use my diploma, so save yourself the time and buy college experience**featuring diploma!"

To sweeten the deal, Ritter is also offering her "college experience" which means a tour around of FSU, access to her college Facebook pictures and even a home football or baseball game.

For those wanting to buy it or make an offer, the sale is open until September 23rd.
