RADIO DJ Jo Wiley has raised a few eyebrows after trying to flog her secondhand lights online – despite her monster pay packet.
Jo, 58, earns a whopping £230,000 a year from the BBC to host the airwaves on Radio 2.
But fans were left doing a double take when they noticed her trying to sell two gold and white wall lights for £300.
Jo listed her cast offs on Instagram and told fans she was getting rid of them following a “bathroom upgrade”.
The mum-of-four was then left backtracking after being mocked by her army of followers.
Red-faced Jo even compared herself to Del Boy – played by Sir David Jason – from the iconic sitcom Only Fools and Horses.

Alongside a snap of her old lights, Jo had explained: “Looking to sell these lights. Excellent condition.
“Selling because I’ve had a bathroom upgrade and gone chrome.
“Astro Versailles 400 dimmable wall lights.
“Retail at £280 each. Selling these for £300 for the pair.”

But writing underneath, one bemused fan replied: “Cost of living must be bad!”
Others also poked fun out of Jo for flogging her secondhand goods on social media.
Taking it in good spirit, however, Jo has since deleted the ad for her lights and compared herself to Del Boy.
Alongside a snap of the cockney trader, she wrote: “No… I wasn’t hacked.
“I really shouldn’t be allowed on social media. My kids are going to have a field day with this one!”
Jo also posted several ‘crying with laughter’ emojis.
Sports presenter Gary Lineker is the highest earning star at the BBC, taking home a staggering £1.35million a year.
