    Ebay India has come out with this year’s census of what Indians prefer to buy and sell on its auction site. The results published are actually quite interesting.

    Did you know that Diamond Rings and Jewelleries are one of the most bought and sold items on Ebay. I, for one, always thought that the list would be dominated by Mobile phones and Electronic items. But that’s not the case.

    Lets look at some of the interesting findings from the Ebay Census report.
