Hidden (@Bugrepo00) reported@kamb9s @253Krakoan @BasicallyIDoWrk Why not both? I do less than eBay prices but a bit more than typical garage sale prices for some of my things and have never had an issue. I think some people are just mad that they can't buy it dirt cheap to flip it themselves.

Obama🇺🇸🇨🇦Leaf (@ObamaLeaf) reported@ebay is doing just fine without @ryancohen and his $GME dilution scam. Look at $GME. It's down 50% in 5 years. Who the hell wants that garbage?

rareactionfigures (@rareactionfigs) reported@Squawk_77OO I’m well aware, i just thought it was funny facebook took my post down but lets eBay run ads with the very same image.

Julius Oliveti (@juliusoliveti) reportedEBay have just relied on listing fees. Too many duplicate listings, poor sellers. It’s dragging down the marketplace

Jim McPherson (@JamesMcPherson) reported@rhensing It's actually 3 now that I think about it. One is 5 years old, the 2nd is a used one I bought for $350 on eBay that arrived broken with the same problem but the seller says it was fine (they lied), and the 3rd is our charger at work. The work one might have warranty still... I'll try it. This is clearly a defect, frustrating that there isn't a fix. I wish I had the time to dig in and diagnose.

Nicholas A. Pantano (@npantano_) reportedRyan Cohen cannot afford Ebay today with GME’s stock price at $24 today. 📚 Check GameStop's investor site or SEC EDGAR for the 425/8-K exhibits (offer letter, presentation). It states (which he doubled down in the Charles Payne interview) that he will offset dilution with higher earnings performance. “Good dilution it was called.” It’s still DILUTION OF GME COMMON to afford Ebay on the stock side. He either needs: -A restructured deal allowing for more cash 70%/30% (third party possibly) or other parameters currently unknown. -GME to $50-60 so he can sell new shares of dilution at a higher value to current Ebay holders. -More debt considerations to afford Ebay. $GME There is nowhere in this proposal that says he can use the future combined price of GME/EBAY to afford EBAY. That’s the same logic as Ebay diluting itself to pay for itself. Delusional.

hodling since 2021 (@Hodlingsince21) reportedTheory: $GME eBay merger weaponizes the CUSIP/ledger reset to crush naked shorts. - Transfer Agents only issue the legal float. Counterfeits can’t migrate to a new CUSIP w/out a locate. - FTD cycles die w/the old ledger. Brokers must buy-in on the open market to deliver shares

Kage Invests 影 (@Investmentkage) reported@SparkingFIRENC I trade stuff at card shows and with people. Much easier than eBay the margins with shipping and selling one to three dollar cards is terrible. But I can trade somebody a three dollar card 80% or whatever because they want it. Wayyy better and honestly a bit more fun.
-
Cankay Koryak (@CankayKoryak) reported@FrancisJeffrey7 According to me at least $5000 estimated value excluding the value for buying from Francis Jeffrey . If I were there, If I lived in US, I definitely would buy one. I'm having serious problems with international purchases. Smaller ones are selling for around $1000 on eBay.

Atobitt (@AustinTobitt) reportedLet me try and explain what this means (for those in the back). 1. $GME pays 50% of the eBay acquisition costs in cash. This buyout pays existing eBay shareholders (if they choose to do so) $125 for their stock 2. Authorized shares are what the company CAN issue, but are not yet issued issued. 3. If approved, GME can issue another 1.5b shares 4. Instead of selling those to the market which causes dilution, the plan is to ROLL them into ebay by exchanging current shareholder stock OF eBay with an equivalent number of GME shares If you're holding eBay shares at the time of acquisition, your stock will be valued at $125 per share. If GME is valued at $25, you'll receive 5 shares of GME in exchange. New stock is not being issued and sold in the open market (this time)... its exchanged 5:1 ( $GME : $EBAY )

Julie Wade (@julie_wade) reported@foxenflask @ryancohen The Vulnerability of Gen Z Commerce The specific nature of Depop’s marketplace makes it an ideal target for these activities. Unlike the stable pricing seen on platforms like Amazon, Depop relies on "hype" pricing where a standard shirt might sell for hundreds of dollars based on perceived social value. This volatility, combined with the use of atypical payment methods like Venmo and Apple Pay, makes it nearly impossible for automated systems to distinguish a "fake" transaction from a legitimate Gen Z fashion trend. In conclusion, while there is no evidence of corporate complicity, eBay has acquired a platform that is structurally vulnerable to being a playground for transaction laundering. The massive loss Etsy took on the sale may suggest an acknowledgment of these deep-seated operational risks. eBay has doubled down on a high-risk asset, betting that the brand facelift provided by Depop is worth the potential for regulatory and financial exposure.

Conway (@ConwayYen) reported@wenpayduck @eBay bruh you don't even wanna know the nasty **** for sale on eBay that they do allow. and yet socks is where they put their foot down? bruh...

Sorry T. Offend (@SorryToOffend87) reported@GhostRekal @sneedweb What customer service? This is a retarded take. eBay has terrible customer service.

Chuck H (@ChuckH14491265) reported@Stonkfather2021 That's not an opinion, RC & GME made an offer to buy ebay stock at 125/share - that's the only reason ebay shares went up 10+%. If they don't accept the deal then the stock goes back down and the call premiums decrease. What's so hard to understand about that.

BuddyTheWebDog 🕳🐇🦮🕵️♀️ (@BuddyTheWebDog) reported@APompliano @ryancohen The eBay acquisition on poly market is only at 22% , why are the markets not taking GameStop seriously? Also, what is the long term vision 10 years down the line, more acquisitions? Hard pivots? Flipping under performing business to sell at a premium? Lastly, I’m a dog

Up Stocks (@UpStocks) reported@GregIsKitty @ryancohen I've been telling ebay for years that it's bc management has no experience selling that everything is so upside down and twisted!! @ValueAddedRS

Tom Bruni, CPA, CMT (@BruniCharting) reported@FusionptCapital We can’t only own the Mag 7, but we can recreate them in the aggregate. eBay and GameStop can take down Amazon. Just nobody will give them a chance.

Mike DeGilio (@MikeDeGilio) reportedPSA: Do NOT purchase raw cards on @eBay that use their authentication. For 6+ months now, they have refused to secure the cards when shipping, damaging nearly everything they authenticate and ship. I paid $900 for a $600 raw card because it was in flawless condition, only to have it arrive hanging out of the sleeve and badly damaged. After weeks of waiting, they told me "looks like it'll still get a psa7 in my opinion, which is technically still near mint, so we are offering a 15% discount and you can take it or leave it." This is a fully known issue and they are taking ZERO accountability on millions of dollars worth of damages caused to customers. @CardPurchaser please share for awareness. I know the packaging stuff is a very known issue, but them refusing to take returns or properly compensate as the outcome needs to be known before more people fall victim to this. Paid $980 for something that is worth probably $200-$300 in the condition I received it.

sellmyphone (@sellmyphone_) reportedeBay takes 12.8% final value fee on the full transaction — sale price AND postage. Add payment processing at 2.9% + 30p. Then a promoted listing (because without it your phone is on page 8). You're already down £45–£52 on a £250 phone before you've bought a stamp.

🥤 Max ༒ Osiris 🔥 ௐ³⁶⁹ 🎩 maxosiris.eth 𑖭𑖰𑖟𑖿 (@maxOSIRISart) reported@aida_studios when ebay took over KO the prices went down to like $16 per mint on the front page not here for the devaluation of art not sure what the answer is necessarily, and I'm not so hip on the same old characters at the part of the space that was taken over by trad and cabal players on the "higher end"

Boston Card Hunter (@BosCardHunter) reportedAn absolutely pathetic display of an ineptitude by PSA leadership led to this collector having to work with police officers on both coasts on his own to get his cards back. This included him buying a low end card off of eBay to identify the sellers information. Bravo to the police 🤘 PSA THIS WILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE MOST EMBARRASSING THINGS YOU HAVE EVER LET HAPPEN ON YOUR WATCH. There are still five cards that are missing and PSA is still lowballing him.

John Smith (@italoking420) reported@ruedaoj @eBay No. Just the algorithms wash trading and walking us down to under $23
-
TayoMurph (@TayoMurph) reported@DaveInJordans @nadr0j117 This is actually a small win in the end. By eBay forcing the refund, he will also get a strike on his account. This affects his listings on the algo, but also opens him up to suspension for repeat issues. You won’t get the card, but they get away with cancelling via a loophole

Simon Jones (@SimonJonesMusic) reported@PositivFuturist @PrimeVideo I've been buying blu rays and boxsets on eBay for so little money it's ridiculous. Amazon streaming quality is the worst of them all, whatever way they are encoding dark scenes is a complete disaster. They started messing with audio mixes too which predictably was terrible.

Geison Machado (@geisonmcd) reported@tylertu70044580 @KivvyCat In the Brazilian version one guy sued the show alleging they pimped so much when it broke down he didn't have the money to repair and nobody wanted to buy it. there were screenshots of it for sale in our version of ebay and later of it abandoned an empty lot. he lost.

DocHB (@DocHuckleberry7) reported@ryancohen How much are you getting paid to take eBay down for Jeff?
-
SmartMoneyFlow (@modeh5) reported@grok @TrippyMike_TC @PhantomBlack699 That’s not accurate. You calculated it based on market cap stays the same as today. If they issue them that’s mean deal is sealed with eBay and market cap maybe reached $100 billion already.
-
John Hancock (@JohnHan96373093) reported@magsonthemoon @I_only_use_tide @cptnredbeard147 Great post Mags, but I believe that RC Ventures have bought the BBBYQ shell. If that is the case then how would RC integrate the shell into the GME/EBAY merger? Would DK-B 1 inc become Teddy? Would Teddy then issue stock and cash to Ebay/ GME and BBBYQ under the same umbrella?.
-
Tea (@VibeWithTea) reported@sierrastrades I don’t understand how eBay rejecting can cause a gme squeeze. This is if gme issues more shares? Isn’t this diluted? Eli5

Dean Gillberry (@FartieFrenchie) reported@Tiggersdad2 You do have a point in your additional comment above, which I’m just seeing now. The two deltas of the offer is the leverage required, and whether 50% of eBay shareholders will participate in an equity roll. TD’s letter likely required heavy due diligence, so there’s confidence there. I don’t think the offer is unrealistic though. Considering eBay’s stale growth, I do think the premium offered is appealing. GameStop wouldn’t need to dilute at the market, but there is accretive dilution when classes are combined. GameStop shareholders go from (estimated) 100% ownership of $10b to 40% ownership of $60b, which is appealing unless I’m misunderstanding. I’ve been reading into merger arbitrage a bit to understand how that would impact both stocks if the deal was accepted. I don’t see how GameStop wouldn’t be bid up although the stock is anemic. After, RC’s media campaign it seems like the plan was for this to end up hostile, so I’m curious to see how it plays out. Side note, that Depop acquisition was a terrible decision. Hope all is well
