  Interesting..."Fulfillment by eBay" has been tried several times before & failed - mostly because they were too focused on trying to chase Amazon/replicate FBA but with 3rd party partners, which was a mistake. There are certainly some categories/types of sellers who could benefit from an eBay version but by & large it's not something I see many sellers clamoring for today. Currently eBay is focused on making shipping another revenue path - for example, mandating C2C sellers in UK & Australia to use on-platform purchased labels where eBay pockets whatever discounts they might have in rates. Personally, I'd like to see eBay first focus on negotiating better rates and/or sharing more of the discounts they already have to help bring costs down & drive more sales long-term for those already doing their own fulfillment. But that doesn't mean some kind of FBE offering couldn't make sense or be valuable for at least some segment of the seller-base - if it's done with actual seller needs in mind rather than being designed as just another fee trap.

  @alt_w_v_g I think @ebay is a giant bore. Once a year I buy a vintage computer there that's about all that's left. And you can't call or talk to anyone if you have a problem it _feels_ like a scam.

  @buythefukndip @ryancohen @Comedyorwat Ive been thinking this is a step towards getting the float monster part of the play in a paypal, venmo or insurance co. He will get as much cash out of ebay as possible no doubt, but much will go towards paying down debt early on. As we say these days, we will see what happens.

  @Stonkfather2021 they offered a combined $56B in cashes and gamestop stocks. ebay turned it down earlier this week. By your math, gamestop was willing to overpay for ebay and they were still denied.

  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.

  @MrJdotETH @ryancohen Scammers and bad sellers are the biggest problem on eBay right now. The hope is GameStop's ownership would actually prioritize trust over fee extraction. A marketplace that vets sellers and takes a cut only on closed deals would solve both problems at once.

  @JunkWaxJblack @CardPurchaser Happened a couple times to me, eBay covers the cost of the item if less than $20. just don’t refund the buyer right away.. eBay will issue the refund then you can request payment via the insurance they offer

  @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

  @CHILIKIWInft Ebay is "poorly managed"? The share price is up 147% since Nov 2022. GME share price is down over the same period. I think the institutional investors can understand that difference. Cohen is acting like a spurned lover. Immature and bitter.

  @PhantomBlack699 @ryancohen Because it’s a platform that allows theft and they have done nothing to fix it in 10 years. Never use it until @ryancohen fixes #ebay

  @KaiXCreator 16gb - 24gb range. You don’t need an expensive machine to code. Install your coding assistant on a remote server. Have all your skills/tools/assets remote. This server shouldn’t be expensive either. Look on eBay, cheap HP i5 / i7 32gb (less that £150) You don’t need a powerful machine to use terminal!
