  $GME LAYER 1 — August 3 may be setting up a repeat of the March to May 2024 settlement pattern The March 2024 decline is important because GME did not immediately show a major FTD problem when the stock was hit after earnings. The large settlement imbalance appeared later. C+35 calendar days from the late March decline landed around the beginning of May, and the more meaningful activity showed up over the following trading sessions. GME FTDs went from only 941 shares on May 3 to 186,627 on May 6, 433,054 on May 7 and 525,493 on May 8, just before the May 13 and 14 price explosion. In prior GME settlement episodes, the strongest upside has often come after the raw C+35 date, with roughly two additional trading sessions and any holiday adjustment pushing the real pressure point slightly later. That is why September 8 through 10 stands out so much now. August 3 created a reason for participating bondholders to sell or hedge against future GME shares before those shares are actually delivered. Qualifying deemed owned sales can be made without the ordinary locate requirement, so some of that selling could fail at settlement and remain open into the Rule 204 window. The earliest August 3 cohort reaches C+35 on September 7, which is Labor Day. That pushes the first live session to September 8, and the usual extra trading day or two brings September 9 and 10 directly into focus. Earnings is also very likely to fall right around that same September 8 to 10 area. If GME suddenly rips, most people will probably point to earnings. But the more interesting possibility is that earnings provides the visible catalyst while forced settlement demand is already hitting underneath it. A strong report, an eBay update, or other material disclosure could also clear away one of the main information barriers that has limited GameStop's ability to use its $2 billion buyback authorization. LAYER 2 — The 35 trading day VWAP may be helping create the compression before the reset The August 3 exchange also created a 35 trading day VWAP period that runs through most of September, with the actual exchange expected to close around September 23. During that time, the final number of shares remains variable, so bondholders have a reason to keep adjusting their exposure. That gives the current weakness a real structural explanation. The same transaction that may have produced the first round of hedge selling on August 3 remains active for weeks, while the earliest settlement obligations are aging toward early September. The stock can stay heavy while the VWAP is still being established, even if pressure is quietly building underneath. The lower price also has obvious strategic value for GameStop. The company has $2 billion of authorized repurchase capacity, so every dollar lower makes any accumulation dramatically more efficient. A depressed stock price can shake out short term holders, move shares into stronger hands, and allow the company to retire more shares for the same amount of capital if it chooses to act. Then the structure changes quickly. Early September brings the settlement window and likely earnings. Around September 23 the VWAP is finished, the final share count is known, the exchange settles, and $1.4 billion of convertible debt disappears. If GameStop has been waiting for a cleaner post disclosure window to buy shares, this is the point where the setup starts getting very interesting. LAYER 3 — October is where the longer cycle, eBay and the $32 warrants can all come together A separate clock begins with GameStop's early May eBay activity. The longer GME recurrence points to roughly 105 to 110 trading days, which lands in early October. That means the longer cycle arrives after the August settlement window, after earnings, and after the September 23 exchange is expected to be complete. By then the floating VWAP is gone, the bond conversion is finished, and the capital structure is cleaner. October is not just another cycle date. It is the first period where the longer timing model arrives after all of the August and September restructuring has already run its course. Then there are the $32 warrants that expire October 30. Roughly 59 million warrants could bring GameStop close to $1.9 billion in gross cash if the stock trades high enough for exercise to make sense. That gives the company a very real economic reason to benefit from a stronger stock price later in the fall. If GameStop understands these recurring settlement patterns and already has strategic eBay developments or other news that can be disclosed after the bond exchange is complete, October becomes a very logical place for that information to matter most. The company benefits from the low price now because it improves accumulation economics, and it benefits from a much higher price later because it makes the warrants valuable and increases the usefulness of GME stock as acquisition currency. That is the larger setup: August creates compression, September brings settlement and the structural reset, and October arrives with the longer cycle, the eBay strategy and the $32 warrant deadline all pointed in the same direction. I laid out the longer version of this thesis in a separate post (PDF).

  @james_droog @lauriewired A similar thing almost happened to me on eBay when I bid on an okay-but-not-great vintage laptop with Nvidia 3D Vision: "set max bid to €600 so I won't have to monitor the auction", but someone matched me and (fortunately) outbid me! (they backed away after, but not my problem)

  @staypredictable As an eBay shareholder that bought more than their entire board combined, I am pissed that the board isn’t allowing GameStop to take over and provide value! Just like Netflix, I am now down on my investment over completely irrational decision-making by these people.

  @diaryoflydia_mh If it ends up a long term problem, maybe you could find someone that can use a soldering iron etc to shorten the cable on a charger for you. Seems a longshot but it might be worth checking Amazon, ebay, Aliexpress for short cabled chargers. Chinese seem to make anything nowadays

  Most people think building a six-figure online income requires venture capital, huge upfront inventory risks, or quitting your day job on a whim. Ryan Hogue proved the exact opposite. In his twenties, Ryan was grinding around the clock. He worked a demanding 9-to-5 as a senior web developer, taught coding classes at night, and took on freelance clients on weekends. The money was decent, but he had zero time freedom taking a single weekend off gave him serious anxiety. That is when he stopped trading hours for dollars and tapped into Print-on-Demand (POD) and scalable e commerce. Printful Instead of wiring thousands overseas for bulk physical inventory, he built digital assets that only fulfill when a customer buys. By steadily expanding across platforms like Amazon, Etsy, and eBay, he scaled his side hustles to over $49,000 a month in consistent, passive cash flow. Here are the biggest rules Ryan shares with anyone wanting to start today: • Never quit your 9-to-5 prematurely: Keep your primary paycheck to cover living expenses while using your spare hours to build sweat equity without financial stress. • Occupy digital real estate: Physical real estate costs a fortune, but listing quality designs across multiple online marketplaces costs almost nothing. • Focus on zero-inventory models: Start with print-on-demand or digital products where you only pay supplier costs after a customer pays you. • Embrace the slow compound: Sustainable income is not built overnight; it comes from dozens of small listings steadily compounding over months and years. True financial freedom isn't just about making money it is about reclaiming your time. What side hustle or passive income stream are you currently building or curious to test this year? Drop your ideas in the comments below, and share this post with someone looking to break out of the 9 to 5 grind!

  I’ve made it a rule to: 1) Post a card to eBay every day 2) Post a reel / photo to Instagram every day 3) Post a Tweet every day 4) Make at least 3 product improvements to My Card Inventory every day It’s not easy, but since I’ve made it a rule I’ve not broken it

  Elon Musk sat for his first television interview in 2007 with $37 million behind him and 2 companies that had shipped nothing. Wired Science, one camera, a host working from a script about a rich man's hobby. The money was 8 years old by then - Zip2 sold at 27, then the company eBay bought as PayPal. None of it shows. He sits in a cubicle at SpaceX with engineers on all sides. In at 9:30. Out at 8 PM. No fixed hours. The host asks whether he ever considered the beach and the beer and the sunset. Musk says that would be torture. The host laughs at him twice - once about his age, which Musk puts at 12, and once when he asks, on camera, whether we really went to the moon. Then the interview stops being about money. Musk says after college he picked 3 problems: the internet, space, and moving the economy off mined and burned hydrocarbons to solar electric. He gives 80% of his week to SpaceX and 2 to 3 days a month to Tesla. On the moon he is blunt - 1969 we walked on it, 3 decades later we can barely reach low Earth orbit. The moon is the Arctic. Barren, small, nowhere to put a civilization. "We saw that movie in the 60s. The remake's never as good." NASA, he points out, is not a rival. NASA is a customer. Falcon 9 lifts Dragon to the space station and brings it home, replacing the shuttle from 2011. Asked who is chasing him, he says nobody with a serious chance of catching. On Branson he does the math out loud: 9 units of energy to reach Mach 3, 625 to reach Mach 25, and all of it burns off again on reentry. Different league. He had already bought a ticket. The Tesla part is a business plan, not a car pitch. The Roadster runs 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds, beats every Porsche in production and every Ferrari but the Enzo, doubles the efficiency of a Prius, and 2007 production is nearly sold out. New technology enters at high price and low volume, so the sports car comes first. Model 2 is a $49,000 sedan. Model 3 lands near $30,000. None of it had been built. The host asks why you can't buy one yet. "We haven't made them yet." The tape is 19 years old. Nothing on it was a guess.

  I am so happy scammers are stupid. I just got a call claiming to be from American Express card reporting a fraudulent purchase with my Amex Card on Ebay. Ebay does not accept Amex. I played along for a little while, I kept laughing, so, I just hung up. Why point out their error?

  @gregcello We had this and the gold castle. I got rid of both and the pirate ship when my kids got older. There was a huge protest and I had to hunt both down on ebay. Now my grandkids play with them when they come over.

  @LibOrNormal One problem might be that the kids parents put them up to it in order to get an autograph they can sell on eBay.
