It depends on the variety. Alpine strawberries will take about 5 months from seed to fruit, most 'garden' strawberries will take a year or two, other varieties can take a bit longer or a bit shorter depending on the genetics. Don't EVER buy strawberry seed from ebay and you should be fine.

I bought strawberry seeds from eBay, why do you say to not buy them from eBay? Cheers.

Because the seeds on offer might be coming from overseas without being checked for diseases
