How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

I just was wondering, how much time do you guys take to make any new ebay and/or paypal accounts.

I take about 35 mintues for each ebay and paypal accounts. And that is from start to finish.

I am trying to find ways to cut the time down so any new tips or ideas would be great. I do know that some people can do it in 20 min.

Little thing like using the 'Sign up to PayPal' button within eBay, prefills all the information and doesn't make you confirm the email address. That's just one of many but you already probably do that

Something like 20 minutes.

About an hour... I kinda take my time. I eat as I do it, make a cuppa. Usually watch something as I do it.

I do it for myself, so if I make 1 account a week and raise it like my own child, I'm happy. No need to pump out 100 a day, for me at least.

Steady account creation scenario plays very fast and solid. But the actual development is slow and careful.

I remember JBluntz and few other sellers used to speak about account creation within 10 min hah

Actually, account creation can be scripted and done by bots. But it won't be solid enough.

I have always done the paypal 1st then the ebay 2nd. I'll try this method when I get more phones this week.

And that is why i gladly pay for basic accounts. They are guaranteed to work and I saved myself about an hour or two of frustration. Then in a month, limits get raised and I then have a 10/1000 account.

Yea but I make my own accounts for no more than $4.99. And it not that hard to make your own. And when I make the accounts, I'm usually watching TV.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

To be quite honest the main part of making the account is actually setting up the email address, sorting phone number etc. It's not actually making the PayPal. When you start using the link in eBay yotano211 it will make the ebay part even quicker.

I believe it is a business of how good you can make, instead of how fast you can make...

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

I agree, the time goes in getting together all your Data, the actual entering information takes minutes, and as you mentioned , once you create EBay Paypal creates itself with the link

I'm waiting on new phones and I'll try that method.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

The actually account creation is maybe 8-10 minutes. It is setting up the mail, phone, user account or VMware/ipad etc... depending on what I am planning to do with the account. That can take 10-20 minutes in itself.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

If it were just a matter of signing up on eBay and PayPal, I'm sure I could do it in 20 minutes or less. But there is also (for me anyway) the matter of selecting the proper stealth address, adding a browsing history to the eBay account and using a few other tricks to make the accounts strong. I WISH this only took 20 minutes! But I'm not complaining because the end result is worth it.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

Yes this is exactly it!

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

I spread out my account creation - first pp then eb

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

I take 45 minutes for both

I've actually written a document on the process which shows the actual breakdown of time and the costs associated with both the account creation and creating a history up to the point of first item listing.

18 GBP is the answer

You and me both brother.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

Takes 15 as long as I have all the important info.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

about 30 min. and 50 min if im casually strolling through the forum at the same time...:ranger:

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

It takes me about 35 mins, most of it is due to opening the dam plastic on those tracfones, and waiting for activation confirmation on their website.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

The way I used to do it before all of my old phones stopped working was that I would do about 10 at a time. I takes some time for the phones to activate doing it on the website but faster then calling in.

I would put the phones on the floor in order of number that is set to the info I already have on the spread sheet. So you would need the zip code already handy.

By the time I am done, most of the phones are ready to go. Sometimes I would need to manually call the service and reset the phone, usually about 10% of the phones does that. But I was only using the older models phones. THe model that will come tomorrow are newer smart phone models.

About an hour. Creating the account itself is quick but choosing the best address, phone number, IP etc takes a while. It's easy to create a new account but creating a rock solid stealth one is an art.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
 

yea that is true.

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts

Re: How much time to make new ebay accounts
