  This point by @Asmongold is relevant for all digital media. I purchase ebooks mostly from Kobo bc I can strip the DRM for backups, but Kindle owners can’t do the same anymore. Their ebooks aren’t actually theirs, and Amazon can update the story content on you or even remove the ebooks just like Sony recently removed 550 movies from user libraries. Remember when Amazon removed purchased copies of 1984 from user libraries in 2009? Let’s circle back to gaming and consider the second hand NSW & NS2 market. The Switch is now seen as physical media’s main defender, yet a used game off eBay can trigger Nintendo to block your console’s online access if the prior owner ripped and shared it. Or GFCs. Yes, they can be traded between friends and resold legally, but they will always be a dongle that needs authorization before it will play. Same with game Nintendo licensing in general. I can’t tell you how many times I couldn’t play my legally purchased Pokémon game on my legally purchased Switch Lite bc a family member was using the family NS2 with my linked account at the same time. (You can fix that particular annoyance, but Nintendo doesn’t make it intuitive.) Yes, having physical editions of games is important, but licensing with DRM benefits corporations, not consumers. It means we don’t own what we purchase, even if we hold it in our hands.

  Built an AI that scans live eBay listings, grades Pokémon cards on centering, corners, edges, and surface, then tells you if the seller priced it wrong. Information asymmetry is a solvable problem.

  @jwordfish Oh, yeah, I hate that. Just save it in the sign in and don't say anything. Or how eBay does it.

  @eBay you’ve got an issue with your app. When I click on something like watched items, nothing happens. It doesn’t matter what I click on nothing works. I deleted the app and reinstalled it and it worked for a few minutes then stopped again.

  we made eBay UK sold listings a free command in the Discord. check comps without leaving the server, filtered to UK sales from the start. if you're still working from asking prices to decide what to list at, that's the first thing to fix.

  @willyiamm There are a lot of those "parts only" ones on eBay and I ended up getting one and using the non-fried bits of the original to fix it My soldering is abominable but still somehow enough to work

  @Gplavallee72 @HankVenture5 @Streamlight My only issue with their pistol-mounted lights is the mounting screw they use is too brittle. I got an upgraded screw on Ebay that works soooo much better.

  @meacouk & @meacouk_Cs does need to do something about scalpers as they're posting on x about buying air con units and reselling on eBay for £400+ profit. We need one of the units for my wife's heart issue as the heat makes it worse. But can't get one for scalpers!

  @foxenflask Thanks for the thoughtful reply! Forgive me as my M&A experience is about 15+ years old consulting as a jr. fin analyst on these kinds of projects. Things were very different back then. I’m going off of what we would be recommending to our clients, how I would have seen us likely advising Ryan/Gamestop at this point. To answer your question directly, I would say “yes”, I could see a constructive deck that would have more summarization of the current 425 materials to date, possibly explaining further thoughtful use-cases a merger would provide and its benefits to both eBay and Gamestop stakeholders alike. If there was an update in financing backing or structure (not exact merger math, but notable change due to say a SWF or PE partnership) that could help with overall reduction of risk, allowing for Gamestop rerate by the market ahead of any TO. In fact, if I was advising, this sort of comms would be unrelenting as when you have the truth on your side, you need to push it until everyone is tired of hearing it. I think there is still a long campaign ahead of Ryan to get GME price to rerate, and I would expect the campaign to push materials at least through 2nd quarter earnings to try and achieve that rerate. Overall campaign goal being to settle stakeholder concerns and reinforce the positives through continuous narrative in order to attain a rerate of GME price PRIOR to advancing with a restructured offer directly to eBay shareholders that is more viable with the given variables at time of offer. I just see any sort of TO at current structure with this price point as putting Gamestop in such an incredibly difficult hill to climb that would be more easily taken on if a rerate was first secured. The amount of combined debt, the actual accretion gained, etc. leave just an unnecessary and unwieldy road ahead if we take our shot now as things currently stand. I’m talking years of battle to get to numbers that could take substantially less time if a rerate happens first, which I think can be secured in just months. Just because you can execute doesn’t mean you should. The price is down because these fears are legitimately realistic in that there is ugly unnecessary risk here. I think the path forward looks so much cleaner and easy to manage when GME price is in the $40s, and don’t understand why they would offer until that is achieved. To note, I also believe Gamestop is currently severely under-valued and I don’t think a rerate into the mid-$30’s based on current metrics alone is unreasonable. Kind of why I think 2Q earnings would be a big milestone as it continues to show what Gamestop and Ryan are capable of and that this turnaround is real. I get your point that something may be brewing though, that could cause a rerate quickly! I don’t see anything as needing to be pressed in short order unless that is the case, and was trying to understand why you did. I do get that more time spent equals more time for defensive maneuvers by eBay board, to a degree, I think they are also somewhat stuck and limited. Appreciate all you do, brother. It’s been fun keeping pace with your thoughts as we roll along here! I hope you don’t mind the questions I pose, they are only intended to understand what your tracking to in your head.

  You can't watch competitor prices 24/7. But your competitors can. Built PricePulse to fix that. Monitors Amazon and eBay around the clock, automatically adjusts your prices, sends you daily intelligence. So you're not reacting to price moves—you're making them.

  $GME $EBAY GameStop is down over $160 million on its Bitcoin position thanks to Ryan Cohen buying near the top with shareholder money. I don’t think eBay pays its entire board that much.
