Commentary for Ketubot 117:15

מתקיף לה רבי ירמיה מי דמי התם בידו להקדישה הכא אין בידה לגרש את עצמה הא לא דמיא אלא לאומר לחבירו שדה זו שמכרתי לך לכשאקחנה ממך תיקדש דלא קדשה

Yirmiyah raised a difficulty: Is that similar? There [the seller] has the right to consecrate [his field]; here [the woman] has no power to divorce herself! Rather this is similar to the case of a man who said to another, “This field which I have sold to you shall become consecrated after I repurchase it from you,” where it does not become consecrated.
