  Let's do the math. $GME currently owns ~10% exposure in eBay. Exercising to get all in stock would cost $2-3B depending on price, leaving them ~$6.5B cash after exercise. So: 10% of eBay + $6.5B cash. They also have a $20B letter for debt/equity from the same dealer manager (TD) that raised their convertibles. Add that: 10% of $EBAY, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt. They also have a little over 2 billion shares they're authorized to issue, which add up to another $44B fully issued at today’s price. Adding that: 10% of eBay, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt, $44B in stock. Then there's another $25-50B in likely equity access from SWFs and private investors at post-money valuations. Call it $20B hybrid equity for now. Running total: 10% of eBay, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt, $20B hybrid equity, $44B in stock. eBay is a $50B company with ~450M shares issued, doing TTM ~$11B in revenue with around TTM ~$1.9B of net income. GameStop is a $10B company with ~450M shares issued, doing TTM ~$3.8B in revenue with around TTM ~$740M in net income. I should mention that 42.9% of existing eBay shareholders already voted against this board (Prop 4 in the recent ARS)? For a Schedule TO, he needs a minimum of 51% tendered. After that, he can buy the rest on the open market to get to 100%. It's a matter of when and not if. And when it happens, I doubt he needs to issue more than 1 billion GameStop shares, given all the other capital lined up. That leaves a combined entity with 1.5B total shares outstanding and a $60B market cap post-transaction. $60B ÷ 1.5B shares = $40 a share. I don't care how much cash or debt is on the balance sheet, it's a $60B market cap company with 1.5B shares. That's $40. More shares, lower price. Fewer shares, higher price. GameStop is trading at $22 right now. So again I must ask, what am I missing?

  A HOMELAB BUILDER JUST PAIRED AN AMD EPYC 77 CHIP WITH 512GB OF DDR5 AND LLAMA.CPP TO RUN DEEPSEEK V3 ENTIRELY FROM RAM WITHOUT A SINGLE GPU 00:03 "my very own AI super computer, not exactly, but it should be quite capable. the goal is to run large LLMs entirely from RAM with a decent context window" the stack is minimalist. one AMD EPYC 77 series processor, 8 memory channels, 512GB of DDR5 ECC, llama.cpp compiled for CPU inference. no GPU. no CUDA. no waiting for a used 3090 to appear on eBay running DeepSeek V3 and Llama 4 from system memory means inference happens at CPU speeds, slower per token but unlocks model sizes that would need a $40,000 8xH100 server to fit on GPU. 405B parameters loaded straight into RAM the article ranks local AI compute from $180 Tesla P40 up to $4,199 Mac Studio. this build sits in a different lane entirely. not GPU acceleration, but raw memory capacity. RAM is the new frontier for anything above 200B parameters most people wait out the GPU shortage. he built an inference machine that never needed a GPU in the first place save this before every homelab realizes their server chassis was already an LLM machine waiting for enough RAM ↓

  @AntMacNCheese I was a little scared of ebay when I first started, but ive never had an issue. As long as they've got decent amount of feedback, never a concern. Ebay also have a validation service now for high value items, it goes to them first to check it, make sure condition is as stated etc.

  @EdLudlow Ask why he famously said: "You won't find us talking a big game, making a bunch of lofty promises or telegraphing our strategy to the competition." And yet is now doing exactly that by shouting the ways eBay can fix the company. Is he overconfident? Or does he know something?

  @Cathy2560 @PokemonTCG It wouldn't solve the problem but I think eBay need to do more to combat this kind of pre-sale behavior. You should have to have the product on hand to sell it at least.

  Ugh, so much plastic gear turning up broken. I suspect a lot of it is because of parcels being thrown around, but there's also a lot of bad packing, like one or two layers of bubble and then the rest of box is full of space for the items to fly around in, feels like the ration of horses with their tails still attached is 5 to 1. Trains, if they're in their original box, they never pad them out, so when they arrive, all the brittle front engine parts are smashed. I stopped trying to get a good one because it felt like I was slaughtering the vintage product line by have so many turn up damaged, I mean old brittle plastic, no effective protection. So many do a really good job. I mean, I tell folk it turned up without a tail, or xy broken and it just upsets everyone. And as you're the one that received it, it's like it's your fault, first anyone has heard of broken. And no one wants to ruin someone’s 100% ebay feedback. So it just goes on and on. I don't think it's about have ebay stuff, it's about it turning up in one piece, after nth goes. nth folk bad packing and delivery screw ups. Shopping, retail therapy should be a good time. But by time its gone through the mill of bad packing and delivery, the dream has turned into a stressful nightmare.

  This is a good conversation and I'll chime in my opinions on Klarna and mystery packs. I think there's a conversation worth having about eBay adding Klarna as a payment option. The biggest issue isn't Klarna itself.... it's that a lot of people don't realize how quickly those payments add up, especially when they're making a bunch of smaller purchases. As for mystery packs and mystery slabs, I think a lot of them are genuinely predatory. We've seen major companies promote huge chase cards, only for it to come out that they weren't even in circulation yet.... or, in MJ Holding's case, not actually include the advertised chases at all. At least when I buy a Pokémon booster pack, I know I have a legitimate chance of pulling the chase. With mystery products, you're relying entirely on the seller's honesty, and in my experience, that's a risky bet. The reality is that a lot of newcomers don't know any better, and too many people take advantage of that. People always say, "It's the customer's responsibility to do their research," but someone brand new to the hobby doesn't know what they don't know. Those MJ Holding mystery products get bought by uninformed parents and grandparents all the time. Then you have creators selling $0.50 bulk in TAG slabs and convincing their audience they got a great deal paying $35 for a TAG 9 Japanese Amoonguss ex or a TAG 8 Slakoth common from EX Sandstorm. That's the kind of thing that hurts new collectors the most without them actually knowing.

  Disagree with all these comments. Less cash means they can force it down lower. Push eBay down, can use the excuse to push GameStop down. Would be shocked if we don’t go back to $20 or lower. Doesn’t change my opinion and this is 100% bullish long term. Love RC and this is a great long term move. But would be shocked if they don’t push it down further IMO, from a short term perspective, next two weeks.

  Thanks @PlayStation. I guess it was all meant to be after all. I bought my first PS5 in July of 2023. Mere months after I had purchased this, you announced the Spider-Man 2 PS5 and PS5 Slim Models. I was sad that I’d missed out on that Spider-Man console. In 2024 I had to sell that PS5 when I lost my job. On July 1st, you made the announcement that you were discontinuing the production of physical games in 2028. That same day, I bought this used PS5 Standard on eBay. This included the standard white PS5, controller, Spider-Man 2 console plates, and the boxes for everything. About a week later I purchased a sealed Spider-Man 2 PS5 controller to complete the set. If you hadn’t made this announcement, I would’ve likely waited for a PS6. So thank you for making such a terrible announcement. Ensuring that this will be my last PlayStation console and that console was the one I missed out on the first go around.

  I see the bullish case and the technical's look incredible (as they seemingly always do...?). But until there is huge and undeniable shift in interest, GameStop will remain flat from @ryancohen's / @larryvc's bond offerings and resulting arb desk hedging. But hey GameStop got $2billy after shutting down the breakout in a "you lose, they win" scenario. A buyback would do the trick but that's seemingly reserved for after/during the eBay acquisition when dilution occurs to keep the anorexic price from totally crashing. $GME

  In 2010, two Irish brothers founded Stripe to build what PayPal should have been. Yesterday, Stripe offered $53 billion to buy PayPal itself. Together with Advent International, Stripe tabled $60.50 per share - a 28% premium. PayPal jumped 19% on the news. The board hasn't answered yet. Sit with the numbers for a second. In July 2021, PayPal was worth $360 billion. It was the undisputed king of online payments - the company that built the category, the alumni network that produced Musk, Thiel, and half of Silicon Valley's founding class. The "PayPal mafia" became shorthand for tech royalty. This year, its market value touched $36 billion. Ninety percent - gone in under five years. Not because payments shrank. Payments exploded. PayPal lost the decade to faster checkout flows, embedded finance, and a developer-first competitor that simply out-built it. In February, PayPal's market value fell below eBay's - the company it was spun out of in 2015. The child became worth less than the parent it outgrew. And now the offer on the table is $53 billion. Roughly 15 cents on the peak dollar. Here's what makes this bid remarkable beyond the symbolism. Stripe never went public. While PayPal spent a decade being repriced, quarter by quarter, by a market that punished every stumble, Stripe stayed private, took the long view, and compounded quietly. Now the private challenger - teamed with private equity - proposes to take the public pioneer off the market entirely. If that playbook sounds familiar, it should. It's Dell, 2013: a fallen public giant, a buyer convinced the problems are fixable away from the quarterly spotlight, and shareholders being offered a premium to today's price that is also a fraction of yesterday's. Dell's take-private turned $1.8 billion into $15 billion. It's the most profitable tech buyout in history. Whether PayPal has a Dell inside it is the entire question. So if you're a PayPal shareholder, here's your choice: $60.50 in cash - 28% above yesterday, 80% below 2021. Take the money, or bet the turnaround?

  I've tried to be straight with you guys. My pest control days, my side hustle Amazon biz that turned into a multi million dollar biz, my Airbnb biz that turned into a construction company. But I need to be upfront once again...it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to make money on Amazon anymore for small third party sellers. The good ole days of easy flips on Amazon are now long gone. I started flipping crap on Ebay in 2006. Toys, auto parts, oil of olay creams (don't ask). That morphed into Amazon by 2012. 2012 - 2022 were the glory days. Around 25-30% fees on each sale from Amazon meant you could buy an item to flip for $20, sell it for $50 on Amazon and still have a good return. Repeat that times thousands of transactions per year and it was a nice little side hustle that helped me walk away from my corporate job. But with any publicly traded company, they often find ways to start to nickel and dime you to no end. Then, with the influx of Chinese sellers that I wrote about below (even got a response from Elon on that one), it's just become a bear of a place to make any money in. Prior to 2023, my rule of thumb was that an item needed to sell for 2.5X what I paid for it to be worth my while (time wise) to do all the work necessary for the profit (research, buying, sourcing, bagging, barcoding, shipping off to a Amazon fulfillment center...yes it's a lot of work). Now, it's almost to the point where the item needs to sell for 5X what was paid for it to be worth your while to sell on Amazon. As you can see from this screengrab of one particular item I sell Amazon now grabs nearly 50% of my revenue with their "Fees". Granted, in 2012 this was around 25% in total fees. In 2020 yrs it hit around 37%, but now, they’ve just added so many superfluous fees which whittle away at any potential profit a third party seller can make. And keep in mind this screenshot doesn’t even have a returned item, which now proliferates the site (Buyers purchase an item, it gets delivered, they take it out of the box, do a return via Amazon but put some old broken item in the box claiming that’s what came, send the said item back and keep your new item..and Amazon refunds them from your account). A single return like that on a high dollar item will just crush your margins. A few years ago I recommended starting a side hustle with amazon. Today, I don’t recommend it AT ALL. Sure, it can be done, but looking at how the landscape has changed and the number of sellers from China that have infiltrated the site as I outlined in the below post, it’s just not even worth attempting at this point.

  @paulcarldigital I have based my entire ebay store on bookmarking this thread and making notes on it. The only thing holding me back sometimes is that im not selling bulk purchased cards for 10-15% on the dollar so ive been starting with pricing my lots at a tad lower than the lowest price that each card is currently up for sale at and then taking 10% off of the entire lot. Most of them dont sell until I bump them down a couple times(even though its already a great deal on price). Starting to consider taking 15-20% off but that burns because its all stuff ive ripped over the years. Free shipping of course. I add the minimal cost into the price of the lot though.

  @StonksMae I dunno, the eBay board of directors seem to think it's worth less if they're gonna turn down the offer and sell it for cheaper. Maybe they're bringing emotions into business and they don't like Ryan Cohen🫤
