  @glacierptrading I highly doubt there will be dilution. You think the EBay CEO is going to step down for a half cash/share offer? It will have to be a 65B buyout at that level and Ryan has no recourse for another 5B in cash. People are forgetting nearly 4B of $GME cash is actually debt.

  @ryancohen @natsturner One of the big challenges on eBay right now is people will purchase a card, and immediately request to cancel it. This happens because the card will still show as “sold”, so it inflates the comp prices even if you refund the card. It also doesn’t show the actual sale price if you accept a lower offer. Sometimes there is a “system error,” and the seller fees aren’t automatically refunded, even when the buyer is the one that cancels. I’ve lost out on countless fees because it’s such a hassle to go through support. This only happens with sports cards for the most part. A credit card should be on file there should be auto pay to prevent this. The example below just happened today, and is the 3rd time this week a high value card has been cancelled. @eBay Are you going to step up to the plate and make improvements, or do I need to pull my listings and start selling my cards to eBay?

  @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.

  @_sportscardshop @eBay @ProfSportsCards Well freakin said!!!!! Thats one of the few negatives… him and his company buying eBay doesn’t fix the fraud situation overnight. It just changes who profits while the fraud carries on. It’ll be a tremendous undertaking that will require lots of money and strategy but if anyone is gonna give it a real shot with the right people the most efficiently way possible it’s RC.

  Day 3. eBay is still throwing the same “script” at me. There has been no resolution and they have admitted to keep the funds with them indefinitely. @ebay, as mentioned in the emails written to you, I will keep raising this issue on X till I don’t get the funds which are rightfully mine. @SECGov, $EBAY fudge their profits by banning sellers and claiming their funds. I’m experiencing this first hand. Nobody knows how many innocent sellers have faced the same issue in the past and have not been able to raise their issue via X. Thanks to @X for such an open platform.

  @npantano_ Nick. First, an exchange ratio is used that’s set in the definitive merger agreement. I think it’s something like 5-20 day VWAP. It could be fixed, fixed with a collar, or with pro-rata proration so the overall mixed stays close to 50/50. If eBay accepts the offer the market will start pricing that into GME’s share price — we see arbritage like this all of the time. The final VWAP and post-deal trading will be the ultimate arbiter. The market will set a higher market cap to reflect the combined companies and that will offset any dilution, hence my point above about ownership. RC picked up on Sorokin trying to spin an inaccurate dilution narrative, and the one woman yelled out the word later in the call like a clown. He was smart to side step it. There is no issue with this deal structure at all tbh at would prevent it from closing if eBay accepts.

  Mr Infinity (@R6RiderF) reported 25 minutes ago

  @TheUltimator5 eBay is the Kansas City Shuffle. The shorts are pushing the eBay price higher because they believe a potential acquisition won’t work without massive dilution. Their entire thesis is based on the assumption that Ryan Cohen would keep issuing more and more shares just to buy eBay at any price. They expect a deal structured around 50% cash and 50% stock, with GameStop continuously diluting shareholders to make it happen. But what if that’s exactly the trap? What if Ryan decides not to buy eBay at all? Instead, GameStop could use its position, cash reserves, and market conditions to aggressively buy back shares and lock up more of the float. That completely flips the narrative and puts enormous pressure on the short thesis. And then Kitty steps out of the box again and pushes the entire momentum even further. After that, if markets eventually collapse and valuations across the board get crushed, GameStop would still have the ability to issue shares later at the right moment and acquire companies far cheaper — not just eBay, but potentially multiple businesses and valuable assets during a downturn. That’s why I think many people still don’t understand the bigger picture. They are focused on short-term headlines while Ryan Cohen appears to be thinking several moves ahead.

  Sold out in minutes, eBay listings right on schedule, and Valve's fix is... an actual line. Reservations, one per account, 72 hours to buy. Amazing how fast scalping looks solvable when a company decides players should get first crack at the thing.

  @jesswprose @ryancohen GameStop has 9 billion of cash on their balance sheet, development was never the issue. You don’t need AI tools to make eBay. They made eBay in the 90s.

  @GregIsKitty @michaeljburry Yes the gme financial results speak for themselves. Gme stock down over 50% while diluting $12b. Ebay stock up nearly 100% while buying back nearly $14b. Ebay shareholders are desperate to have RC on their team

  @austinredstoner @Pirat_Nation Nah, those socks aren't suddenly worth $14k. It's Ryan Cohen's joke eBay stunt as the GameStop CEO—fans and meme traders piled on bids for the novelty/celebrity angle, not the actual Adidas crew socks. eBay shut it down anyway. Real market value? Still just a few bucks a pair.

  $RYUN is sitting on 6.1k mc whilst other similar sort of memes are running so much higher. Back in 2021 $GME short squeeze was happening and now with the acquisition of Ebay coming, I think this could be seriously undervalued. I don't mind personally helping out any CTO that takes place on this as I have worked on a few similar style memes in the past. Who would be down to run this up? Could be a good runner if played right. Bab6tzaGYxUCcLTUXG1TSVv4vUaYWC3MLoTDGULGpump

  @ryancohen ebay is horrible, terrible to its account holders! I've been trying to get my money out since 2021. they restricted withdrawals because I had issues selling back in 2020. I got sick with COVID and couldn't ship packages out in time, so bad reviews locked the account. I haven't sold in 6 years, and told them to restrict my account from selling, but release my funds. I don't care; I'll never sell again. Every time I call @ebay to amend the issue, they clear the account restriction and assure me the money will be transferrable...then their system reverts back to restricting withdrawals! I understand your frustration; they're awful. I'm at the point where I'm considering hiring an attorney to sue them, but the $8,700 probably isn't worth it. This is unfair.

  @ReclaimTheNetHQ WHEN they set this up, it was SUPPOSED TO BE FOR SELLERS, now they are putting it on CONSUMERS, and I think I AM GOING TO TURN THEM IN, THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!! I have BOUGHT thousands from them, and if they want to accuse me of FRAUD, they can take their damn Amazon account, and SHOVE IT!!! It’s part of their compliance with this law for sellers — and sometimes it spills over or triggers broader account security reviews for buyers too (especially with unusual activity). The INFORM Consumers Act (full name: Integrity, Notification, and Fairness in Online Retail Marketplaces for Consumers Act) is a U.S. federal law passed in 2022 as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act. It took effect on June 27, 2023. Main Purpose The law aims to increase transparency on online marketplaces (like Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Shopify, etc.) to protect consumers from counterfeit, stolen, or unsafe goods sold by third-party sellers. It makes it harder for fraudulent sellers to hide their identities. Who It Applies ToOnline marketplaces operating in the U.S. that allow third-party sellers. High-volume third-party sellers: Those with 200+ separate sales and $5,000+ in gross revenue in any continuous 12-month period within the past 24 months. Small or low-volume sellers are generally exempt .Key Requirements Marketplaces like Amazon must: Collect and verify specific information from high-volume sellers: Government-issued ID (e.g., driver's license, passport). Bank account details. Tax ID (e.g., SSN for individuals or EIN for businesses). Contact info (phone, email, business address). Disclose some seller information to buyers (e.g., name, address, contact details for qualifying high-volume sellers). Suspend sellers who don't comply or provide false info. Provide a way for consumers to report suspicious activity. Re-verify information annually (or when it changes). Penalties for non-compliant marketplaces: Up to ~$53,000 per violation (enforced by the FTC and states). Why Amazon (and Others) Ask for ID/VerificationThis is exactly why you might see Amazon prompting for government ID upload or other details during account issues, lockouts, or routine checks. It’s part of their compliance with this law for sellers — and sometimes it spills over or triggers broader account security reviews for buyers too (especially with unusual activity). Amazon has been actively enforcing this since 2023, with annual certifications required.
