What do people want to buy?
Being bored and hopping onto ebay I noticed the new "pulse"...
The "ebay pulse" tells you what the most popular things people are looking for, watching, etc... now... When I looked, the most popular searches were...
[all calculated by "number of searches"]
cds, tops, dvds - I can understand. These are logical things to want to buy. But, the numbers 12,4,5 and 7? are people bonkers? [in case they are, I've a "number 12" that I'll sell quite cheaply... ]

What's a "top"? Spining top? Clothing top? Muffin tops?
Mmmmmm, muffin tops.

I'd say "yes" to all 3.
It is more of a "normal" request than a number... saying that... it's exactly the same today - I wonder if it's gotten a bit buggered up or something...
Interesting facts [from ebay]
A piece of women’s clothing sells every 20 seconds : She surely can't have much left in her wardrobe - throw her a blanket someone!
A CD sells every 11 seconds : so that's where all the time's been going!
A football shirt sells every 5 minutes : aka a "ball bag" to the rest of us
