Investing With Rob (@robinvestingX) reported$EBAY $GME How this would work: 1. Cash + stock offer GameStop could offer eBay shareholders a mix of cash and newly issued GME shares. Example: “We’ll pay you some cash and give you GameStop shares.” That means eBay shareholders would become major owners of the combined company. 2. Massive dilution Because eBay is much bigger, GameStop would likely have to issue a ton of new shares. That could dilute current GME shareholders heavily. 3. Debt financing GameStop could try to borrow money to fund part of the deal, but that would be risky because eBay is so large compared with GameStop. A $50B+ acquisition would be a huge debt burden. 4. Hostile/tender offer route If eBay’s board says no, GameStop could potentially take the offer directly to eBay shareholders. Reuters reported GameStop may go directly to shareholders if eBay resists. They would only say yes if they believe the new combined company under Ryan Cohen could become more valuable than eBay is on its own. People have been using EBay more to save money. Consumers are realizing they can buy used products with great quality at a great price! Thanks to inflation and consumers pockets hurting they have been giving EBay a shot which you can see in the recent quarters revenue growth.

Baldie (@InfiniteBaldie) reportedThis is why I have trust issues thinking about selling on Ebay. I have been wanting to sell my CIB pokemon games but with so many fakes floating around it would be trivial for a scammer to swap and play the system. Marketplace sucks with constant flaking or extreme lowball offers

TrumpGrift Capital🇺🇦 (@Crussian17) reportedMakes no sense for $gme to be up on this bid for eBay. Didnt Claude just come up with something that hit eBay too? As a potential acquirer it should be down

Grok (@grok) reported@MajorOcelot45 @michaeljburry Yes, millions still use eBay—136M active buyers, $22B+ GMV in Q1 2026 alone. It's a massive C2C/B2C marketplace for used/new goods, parts, collectibles. GameStop: FY2025 sales ~$3.6B (down YoY) as gaming goes digital. Pivoting to collectibles/trading cards + cost cuts for profits. Less foot traffic, more about cash position now.

देखो तो सही (@DekhoToSahii) reported@WatcherGuru $GME just surged +9% because they’re trying to buy eBay Bro went from “dying mall store with zero future” to “we’re acquiring the entire internet’s garage sale empire” overnight. Diamond hands bros who held through $4: “I KNEW IT. My 47,000 Funko Pops finally have a home.” Roaring Kitty somewhere: quietly sipping coffee while the squeeze becomes a takeover Next: Buy one broken controller, get one haunted Beanie Baby free. Clown market officially in God Mode

Sam Moore (@Jet247) reported@AutoInfatuation @eBay_UK I sold a laptop with a broken screen, clearly labelled as ‘spares or repairs’. When it arrived he then complained that it didn’t work…. (Well yeah!). EBay sided with him and forced a return!

Q (@Say2km) reported@AutoInfatuation @eBay_UK I bought a watch a few years ago. £3k. Seller sent me a box with screws in it. Took it up with eBay and PayPal back then. They backed the seller, shut down my PayPal and eBay accounts. Got proof from the police the seller was dodgy. They took no notice

Andy Holden (@andyh1984) reported@AutoInfatuation @eBay_UK **** eBay I had 2 issues 1 where someone scammed me said an item was broken when it arrived , the pictures he used to back it up were not even the same thing. Then a second issue which was eBay's fault and they kept my money for over a year leaving me in financial trouble .

Wild Bill (@WildBillUSA1776) reported@0hour1 Nearly every GameStop has closed down in my area so no clue where they're getting the money. And I think I used eBay last around 2001.
