Using two id's as a seller

Hi everyone

I have just set up a second id so that I can list  2 x 40 a month, but I wondered if anyone could tell me if there is an easy way to 'toggle' between the two id's. Currently I sign out and sign in again with the new id but it can be a little confusing.

I contacted eBay and they told me I would need to have a second browser such as Google Chrome of Firefox - is that correct?

thank you

yes you can have both open at the same time, eg with internet explorer and then another eg google chrome, I do that.  google chrome seems to be heaps faster anyway. clearing your temporary files within your control panel regularly helps too.

Yes. The easiest way is to sign in on a different browser with a different ID. Otherwise you will be toggling.

 

I use Firefox for my main ID, Chrome for this one and, choke, IE for the one I don't use very often. Easy. Except for IE which takes forever to load and is full of eBay approved spam.

Dave, as I need to rely on an iPad, Chrome is sloooooowwwwww for me. Apple has implemented a go-slow for all browsers other than Safari.

Safari, in its turn, makes IE look like a hotted-up Lamborghini aventador.

Soooo...for users of things Apple, use Safari for preference and Chrome for the secondary login.

I just log the other id into ebay US that way I can just stay on firefox without toggling ids

I have 4 browsers open at once, one for each of my selling ids plus this posting id.

and if you really want to make your life easy, connect a couple of more monitors.

 

I currently operate up to 4. (not all for eBay LOL) but I can imagine how easy it is to just have one account per screen opened on different browsers, no need to swap between screens and tabs.


Some people can go their whole lives and never really live for a single minute.

Lol, if I want a 5th id opened, for instance one of my UK accounts then I must admit to powering up my netbook too.
