  @ValueAddedRS FBA has essentially failed for the original vision Amazon had any they subsidized it massively for years. If they can’t make it work I don’t think anyone else can. I say it failed because FBA is now a terrible deal and hassle for small sellers or small quantities, they are getting pushed off the platform. Now FBA I’m sure is very profitable and strategic still for Amazon but it’s a different very narrow focus, at huge scale. ebay-type inventory just didn’t work there

  The EBay story that nobody is talking about: -GME is down 19% since Cohen embarrassed himself on CNBC -The Math only works if he dilutes GME shareholders by 60+% -Closed at 21.61 today, with single digit downside in the horizon My Opinion: RC = grifting conman

  @vvvvioll And then returned to the seller. When I tried to contact them, I found that their eBay account was entirely gone. $80 USD down the drain… I did end up getting them from Best Buy a few years later though!

  @Stonkfather2021 Correct EBay would dilute they would issue more shares so they wouldn’t own 51%. Also institutions need permission to own more than 20% of a publicly traded company. SEC filing and eBay will know about it if filed and will prepare to issue shares to dilute.

  @bkj_brad @yanxchick The fake card problem is honestly why I'm skeptical of eBay for anything graded. Between fake PSA certs and people pulling bait-and-switch on auctions, it's playing roulette with your money. Sellers eat 15% fees and still get burned by buyers sending empty boxes back.

  @Jbm_dev Because listing industrial electronic items on eBay through eBays app takes to long especially when all the details of the items matter and typing them allows for too much human error. I built a Ebay listing agent that allows you to just take multiple pictures of the item especially the name plate, then it drafts the Ebay listing while you are off taking the next set of photos. Not to mention it sets a price based off of eBay sales as well as historical data and google data. At the end of the day you have a big list of drafts to review to ensure accuracy and then you do a bulk listing push to Ebay live. I've reduced the time to list one item from 8 minutes down to less than 1 minute.

  Im not reading all of that but I have zero issues with ebay. I buy and sell on there daily. No where else will you get that many people actively buying and selling. As for the fees. I really don’t even care. Account for them when you make your listing prices. It’s a free market. I use eBay for the amount of eyes on my products. GameStop shills just can’t get over this.

  @alt_w_v_g EBay is a dumpster fire. They openly let buyers scam sellers by letting them say they didn’t receive an item and automatically reimburse the buyer from the sellers account. I shut it down a few years ago now. Scammers everywhere

  TME Doomsday (@TME_Doomsday) reported 25 minutes ago

  @xMarketNews The people against GME & their holders are pumping into EBAY to make the buy impossible.. so holders lose faith and sell, which in turn lowers the stock, driving the nail further. This is the slow GME death they were looking for, and RC gave it to them on a silver platter.

  🚨 DEVELOPING: GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Escalates eBay Takeover Battle 🚨 ​Following the rejection of his $56 billion unsolicited bid, GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is doubling down. In a formal letter to the eBay board, Cohen demanded that shareholders be given the final word on the $125-per-share cash-and-stock proposal. ​The bid, which eBay dismissed as "neither credible nor attractive," represents a significant premium over recent trading prices.

  GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Pushes Forward After eBay Rejects $56 Billion Bid eBay's board turned down GameStop's unsolicited $56 billion offer, citing doubts over financing, valuation, and merger risks, despite the bid's 46% premium over eBay's February price. Cohen, who holds a 5% stake through shares and derivatives, highlighted GameStop's shift from big losses to $130 million quarterly profits since he took over in 2023, backed by nearly $9 billion in cash and a confident debt letter. Retail investors cheered Cohen on, while he eyes synergies like using GameStop's 1,600 stores for eBay's collectibles and hints at rallying eBay's owners next. $EBAY $GME

  @alphafox I pretty loyal to eBay. I’ve got all my computers, motorcycle parts, and any expensive electronic there. I’ve had a few issues selling… but selling things in general sucks.

  @iky_fwjett That's not a flip, that's theft. Wild that eBay makes it so easy for anyone to list anything without confirming ownership. The $25 find was solid though — $600-700 to the right buyer is real. Just wild it went down like this.

  Triangulation Fraud vs "Dropshipping" It's not uncommon for $EBAY buyers to receive orders "dropshipped" from Amazon, Walmart etc. There are many variations on the fraud, but generally: If it uses stolen credit card = crime No stolen cc = just terrible eBay buyer experience.

  @Kaaroth @mikee_degen I have two thoughts on this: eBay is 99% institutional owned (or 89% institutional with a 10% insider who is likely hostile), and tender offers are actually even more challenging in these dominations. It’s extremely rare that institutions participate in tender offers or voice support for activist campaigns. This makes a tender offer right now extremely, extremely challenging. Point 2: I actually think we get a huge market crash immediately in 2027, right after midterms. In the scenario where the market tanks, eBay is down >40%, Ryan keeps the $125 offer on the table, and the board has received bad press for 6+ months that is tarnishing their reputation - they are effectively forced to sell the company at that point. And in this scenario, if they don’t sell, a tender offer has a much higher chance of success. This is imo a high success chance outcome that is in a realistic timeline. Just wanted to pass along my two cents, I did a lot of research and brainstorming with grok on tender offers, and this is the scenario where it can succeed. Going to a tender offer though in a couple month when the share price is around $110 and the board is still hostile? Surprisingly that has historically a very low chance of success

  @InningOne @larryvc @ChungusInvestor It seems you’re having trouble understanding how GameStop’s pending acquisition of eBay would work as proposed. You should have a look at Paramount/Warner Brothers to see how a smaller cap company can acquire a much larger market cap company. The cases are not dissimilar.

  Jack Dillard (@Kraven1776) reported 48 minutes ago

  @ValueAddedRS Hey Liz. Have you considered that eBay was just a valuation trap? Ryan used eBay to officially validated GameStops $20billion TD letter as legitimate by turning down the offer. So in public’s eyes ryan has $20 billion plus $9 billion. He’s buying the DK Buyterfly Inc shell.

  @ermiasbraki Everything I have posted about in the last 2 weeks is something I've been reporting on for ~5 years. So no, I'm not just chasing "the attention economy" but yes I am happy to see some of the longstanding culture, governance & other issues at eBay getting attention they have deserved for some time. Importantly - most of those issues have been completely ignored by legacy business & financial media for years. Maybe someone should ask them why?

  @ryancohen Yeah and you're too much of a ***** to issue a blockchain dividend for $GME . Sounds like you're even more of a "hollow man" than the eBay **** heads are.

  @Furu_Bartuc @eBay I dug through the actual DEF 14A filing. The 4/20/26 record date is tied to the June annual meeting already on the books - directors, compensation, auditors, etc. There’s no merger vote listed in the proxy materials right now. If this moves forward formally, they’d likely issue a separate proxy and new record date.

  @userofintellect I'm pretty sure Cohen still plans to buy Ebay - he looked quite determined. BUT I also had a suspicion that was his secondary objective, the first being to have short make a mistake. And it looks like they made that mistake on Monday. $56 bn (!!!) market cap 'glitch' on BRK-B...
