  I’m anti-eBay authentication overall. Think it causes 10x issues than it resolves. But there are tons of heavily faked cards where buyers are helped by it being in place. Giving a workaround to a broad audience is very stupid as a big account

  @CardPurchaser So I decided to jump in to make a rainbow. I am still high on JDom and right now and trying to put together his 2025 Pristine encased autos. Starting slow and probably going to be hard to find the /5 and 1/1. Can't find green /150 or purple /99 ones on eBay.

  I wonder how many families @ebay has torn apart due to their terrible service, yet #ebaysucks does nothing for their customers inconvenience, instead they ban their customers who's been screw'd over to cover up their mistakes, instead of punishing the seller who sends the wrong product of lesser value than what was originally been purchased, 🙏 please let ebay go out of business, to save the children of the future

  There are many things currently going on with Ryan Cohen and Activist friends, including much discussion and consternation surrounding eBay, GME and BBBYQ. I thought I’d share some thoughts: Personally, I’m not concerned at all about us not acquiring eBay, nor worried about the warrants expiring worthless. GME warrants are a very specific financial instrument and extremely unorthodox and unique. No company that trades has really done anything similar according to AI and yet here we have GME, BBBY and OPEN doing almost the same precise thing with the warrants and mimicking one another at nearly the same precise time and methodology. Ryan made some bombastic statements back in early February, I believe, regarding markets and “something that’s never been done before” and effectuating Capital Markets, followed with the Charles Payne head fake and pulling out of the interview based on legal counsel’s advice.” So either Ryan is completely insane or this is a massive plan with pinpoint laser planning, designed not only to benefit Ryan loyalists, but in the grander scheme of things, takedown Wall Street and shake financial markets to their core. Based on Ryan’s track record of success, his reluctance to normally reveal anything and now going on a publicity tour excoriating eBay and their Board only adds to my confidence. Couple that with other factors like X money timing, Elon’s butterfly posts and the White House and other signal accounts constantly edging us, I really have no doubt that things will become clear shortly and break in our favor quite rapidly. Ryan didn’t go to all this trouble, write a series of children’s books and throw away many years of his life only to come up short. Ryan is a critical cog and the frontman in this massive play to usher in not only a vision of a delivering fairness and integrity to shareholders, but a total revamp of financial markets and accountability.

  Paramount $PSKY (~$9.5B market cap) is buying Warner Bros. Discovery for ~$110B with fully committed Ellison family equity + major bank debt = mainstream media calls it a totally normal mega-deal. GameStop $GME (~$9.5B market cap) is offering ~$56B for eBay $EBAY (they already own ~10%) backed by ~$4B+ cash + $20B TD financing + ability to issue stock = mainstream media calls it the most absurd thing they’ve ever heard. Why the difference?

  @JaePatriot17 @NostalgiaYZ The lead is no problem. The "cassettes" are easy enough to treat lightly, and come up on ebay all the time anyway. (never had the need). The trickiest part is finding erasers that fit in the little metal holders. Too thick, and they crack the cassette top.

  Mid-way through last year, somebody won an auction for a stapler from $GME that was listed on eBay, and it made national news. There was a charity component to that auction and a further donation from the winner, that was super cool and made the whole thing super wholesome. I believe it was the first official listing from GameStop's then-new eBay account, which is cool to think about in retrospect. But then, that person and his team, almost immediately, started using this recognition and reach to promote something called GameStop on Ethereum, a shitcoin that has absolutely nothing to do with GameStop. A bunch of influencers from the community helped him, and he even had big names with 1M+ followers talking about how "cool" it was that this guy was buying up this shitcoin that is backed by absolutely nothing, because it had limited supply. A lot of poeple bought in, both to the shitcoin and the hype. They used GameStop's nationwide and social-wide recognition to promote their agenda of buying this shitcoin. I raised alarm bells and even messaged the person directly, as well as some of his friends and associates saying how wrong it was that they were using the GameStop cash tag to promote this crap without clarifying that it had nothing to do with GameStop and it was a really bad look, not just for the person doing this, but for GameStop as well to be associated with this shitcoin. That is already a wide-ranging problems on many crypto platforms, and actions like this from people that know better makes this problem worse. They even had a physical event that they claimed was GameStop sponsored at first, but then GameStop had them remove their logo and any mentions of official sponsorship from GameStop from their event page. Well, a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe in this case a picture is worth millions of dollars. Not cool. I have all of that person and his teams shenanigans blocked, but please beware of crypto scams associating themselves with GameStop. One thing I hope that comes from the Clarity act is more enforcement, and some harsh criminal repercussions for defrauding the general public. If they make an example of a few, everyone else will fall in line and take their scams elsewhere. This is not the first time and it won't be the last. The plan is always to grab attention, then extract or divert capital. Be careful out there folks.

  @SaveETopps @benembry at first I did not notice a drop, but what's ******* me is that extra quarter. all my 39-cent cards are becoming 14-cent cards to ensure they get crosslisted to eBay. so volume is the same. dollars is down.

  With GameStop's $2B share buyback authorization, the timing of what comes next is critical. Anything can happen, but here are some thoughts that came up while I was on the toilet this morning. I believe GameStop would start buybacks prior to a tender offer for eBay, since SEC rules prohibit a company from buying shares once a tender offer is announced (unless a private sale contract was already signed before the announcement). As the buyback shrinks the float, it puts upward pressure on the stock price. Once the stock rips past the warrant's $32 strike price, those warrants get exercised and GameStop raises nearly $2B in cash. ADDITIONALLY, they also have authorized shares ready to issue directly into the higher prices to raise a CRAPLOAD more cash. Spend a fraction of cash at the bottom to reduce the float, and raise exponential cash at the top by selling into the highs. Then the math can math. TLDR: GameStop $GME $EBAY

  $GME WHAT IF?! 🔥🚀💎 What if they hit us with a one-for-four reverse split RIGHT NOW? 🃏 REVERSE UNO CARD 🃏 21.60 → 86.40 💥 Those ~59M warrants at a $32 strike (expiring Oct 30, 2026). At $21.60 they’re OTM. At $86.40 they go deep ITM and get exercised. ≈ $1.89 billion cash lands on the balance sheet. Zero interest. Zero lenders. Zero covenants. GME already owns 43.39 million $eBay shares. They don’t pay themselves for those. Remaining shares that still need to be acquired: 444M − 43.39M = 400.61M Total value of those remaining shares at $125: $50.076 billion → Cash half: $25.038 billion → Stock half: $25.038 billion At the current ~$21.60 price, that stock half would require issuing roughly 1.16 billion new GME shares (more than double the current share count). A reverse split that takes the stock to $86.40 cuts the number of shares needed by 75% — down to ~290 million shares for the same $25B in stock value. Current funding picture: • Estimated liquid after the big buys: ~$4.05B • TD letter: ~$20B • Total without warrants: $24.05B • Shortfall on the cash half: ~$0.99B The warrants bring in $1.89B → gap closed with ~$0.90B headroom left. ✅ GME doesn’t have to fund the 43.39M shares it already owns. The warrants aren’t just dry powder, they’re the piece that makes the cash half of the remaining shares actually fundable. 🔥 Who else is ready for this timeline?! 👀 #GME #GameStop #EBAY @ryancohen

  VII. Falsification Grid, Because Conviction Without a Kill Switch Is Religion Claim: the notes carry real option premium at negative yield, making the carry ledger the correct frame. Basis: 101.54 and 102.11 prints against a 93–94 put floor. Falsified if: fresh TRACE/FINRA prints sit at or below the put-discounted floor. If falsified: the option is priced at zero and retirement becomes near-free convexity. The frame dies and the trade gets better. I’ll take that trade against my own thesis any day. Claim: no convert retirement has happened yet. Basis: Q1 debt intact at $4,166.1M. Falsified if: the Q2 10-Q (September) debt footnote shows principal below $1.5B / $2.7B, an extinguishment gain, or a subsequent-events disclosure. If falsified: a board quietly opened the bond leg, and this whole piece stops being scenario and starts being record. Claim: the $2B is post-resolution ammunition, not live fire. Basis: shares-only scope, zero historical pace, impaired safe harbor during eBay pendency. Falsified if: the Q2 issuer-purchases table shows executed repurchases mid-bid. If falsified: either the deal posture changed or they are running outside the safe harbor on purpose. Either way, the map redraws. Hard dates, all filed, none negotiable. October 30, 2026 — warrant branch resolves, ~100 days out. September 2026 — Q2 10-Q, the next evidence drop. April 3, 2028 — 2030 put. April 6, 2028 — earliest company call, gated at $38.81. Bottom line. The bond market is paying GameStop to hold its money and paying extra for the right to its upside. The carry has already covered the cost of buying that right back. The CEO just stripped his own compensation down to nothing but the share price. The authorized lever is handcuffed; the free lever is loaded at negative yield; the tripwire between them expires in 100 days. None of that is a promise. All of it is filed. If you still cannot see the geometry. two denominators, opposite legal status, purified incentives, self-funding unwind, and a hard calendar that converts every scenario into a fact—then the filings are not the problem. The difference between a chessboard and a coincidence arrives in the September debt footnote. I’ll be reading it either way. Mechanically permissible is not an operating plan. But this much machinery, pointed this consistently at one number, deserves eyes on it. Disclosure: author holds a long position in GME common stock. Carry figures marked [EST] use a 4.2% average short rate and fungible-cash assumptions; verify against filed interest income before republication. This is research, not financial advice. Power to the Players.

  @jdflynn If the decision between the two comes down to money, just get a used blackstone and look for a deal on used batting tunnel equipment and do both. I hate buying new when I know I can go on Facebook marketplace or eBay and lowball somebody and get next to new for pennies on the dollar.

  @Furu_Bartuc @powerpacks @gamestop PSA eBay listings preserve a few percentage points of margin at higher card values (8% fee above $5K). But then you run into liquidity issues and potentially a long wait to get a good price, especially for valuable but obscure cards, plus risk of CardLadder price fluctuation.

  PayPal tried to buy Stripe in 2013. Stripe said NO. 13 years later: Stripe is offering $53 billion for PayPal. Here’s the timeline that still feels unreal: 2013: Stripe is 3 years old. Raised $40M. PayPal (still owned by eBay) makes a bid. John Collison’s pitch to the PayPal founders: “Payments on the internet are totally broken.” They get it. The company doesn’t. Deal dies. 2014: PayPal buys Braintree for $800M instead (and gets Venmo as a freebie). Stripe does $7B in volume and hits a $1.75B valuation. Next decade Stripe volume compounds at 70% a year. Braintree at 43%. Last year alone: Stripe → $1.9 trillion Braintree → $600 billion 2026: Stripe hits a $159B secondary valuation. Then teams up with Advent and drops a $53B offer for PayPal. 50/50 ownership. $50B in bank financing already committed. The company that once looked too small is now trying to buy the one that was too big to fail. Internet moves fast. Pride moves slower.
