How long does it take to get paid on 'the new ebay'

[Christopher]

its been a long while since ive sold on ebay and i know they have all kind of limits and holds now smh..

so lets say i get a new ebay account today i will have to do all auctions with no buy it now im sure..but how long till after i sell my items will i see my cash and also what about the limits will i need 5 accounts to make 2500 or can i make more than 500 on ea acct now

There are so many things wrong with your post....

1. eBay doesnt place hold on money, that would be a paypal issue.

2. Creating a new account will limit you to 10 items a month. And it sounds like you need 2,500 desperately, so unless you can make that much with a couple account, than you are out of luck. And doing that on a new account isnt a good idea anyways as it would raise flags, because this would involve high risk items.

3. You also will not see that cash immediately, as you will have holds on paypal, and will most likely see some time of limit as well.

4. search the forums.....

It takes approximately 1 day 2 hours and 35 min. and for $2500 you would only need 2 and 1/2 accounts since most new accounts have 1k per month limit.

What do you mean 1 day are u being serious or what...and yea thats what i meant paypal

Yeah I was being sarcastic, nobody knows how long it takes to get paid, that depends on alot of different factors.

If you don't have the 21 day hold then it would take 3-5 days to transfer to your bank, assuming your paypal doesn't get limited first and that's if you sell something without your listing getting pulled first.

So if everything goes smooth with ebay/paypal and you don't have any holds then it would take about 3-5 days to get paid after first sale.
