  $GME is stuck between a Rock and Hard place in it's pursuit of $EBAY, for months now, GameStop has been wedged between it's Descending Blue 2/1 Gann Fan Angle, originating from it's 2021 Peak and April 2024 lows, that *contained* the Roaring Kitty squeeze and has been a hard ceiling on upper movements ever since. Shorts have held the line on that Blue 2/1 Descending Gann Fan Angle, while at the same time trying to push the stock below the Volume cliff under $21; everytime GME has threatened to tank below, Ryan Cohen does *something* to rescue the stock, most notably, canceling his own Pay package vote. Well, time runs out on this Wedge pattern on August 17th, where my Finger Icon is pointing. If RC is gonna close on Ebay, he better do it then.... This moment reminds me of when Netflix was teetering at the edge of a Gann Fan Angle in it's pursuit of Warner Bros, if $NFLX kept up that bid, it was at risk of gapping down, but it ended the bid and the stock jumped up from $75 to over a $100... If RC can't close the deal, by August 17th, he has to bail on the deal to save the GME from falling under that Volume cliff, could this have been his plan all along? Put on this show of pursuing Ebay, have the Shorts pile in to crash the stock on fears of Dilution, and when he has exhausted all avenues for a Merger (which was probably doomed to fail anyway), he cancels the deal, sell all of GameStop's holdings in ebay, and rocket up the stock from that Blue 2/1 Descending Gann Fan Angle? Will be a hell of a big brain move.... Whatever happens...something significant has to happen by that Aug 17th date.........wonder if I should buy Calls.

  So $GME. There might be something here, but maybe not at this price. Let's break it down. So today $GME has 5.2$ in net cash/share + 10.63$ per share in EBAY + 1.1$/share in Bitcoin + an operating business that generates 1.25$ in operating income. If we apply 10x to the business, $GME's value today is about 30$/share while it's price in the stock market is 22$. So they own close to 10% of $EBAY. $GME offered to buy the rest of the shares (90%) at 125$ paying 50% cash and 50% GME equity. So 90% means 50b. So 25b cash and 25b equity. GME has 6.5b cash on the balance sheet and can access 20b financing (mentioned in the offer). Say they access 15b in new debt. Now, they equity part is trickier. They do have the authorization to issue up to 2b shares at a price approved by the Board. Say they issue at the current mkt price of 22$. This means they will issue 25b / 22$ = 1.13b new shares and post-merger $GME will have 1.6b shares. So, the new company will have a roughly 3.8b in EBITDA (3b from EBAY + 0.8 from GME) and 2.6b + 4.1b + 15b =~22b in net debt. That's a pro-forma 2026 net debt / EBITDA of ~5.8x. Now, $EBAY currently trades at 18x or so and has very little debt (~1.2x). The new entity will be way more leveraged, but probably the business model can take it. But still, this amount of debt means higher risk and lower multiple. Say 15x instead of 18x. At this multiple, the Enterprise Value of $GME is 57b - 22b (net debt) -> an Equity Value of 35b / 1.6b (shares) = 21.8$/share. @ryancohen said they will cut 2b in costs in the first 12 months. If they manage to do this, then 2027 EBITDA will be something like 6b x 15 = 90 - 18b (net debt, assuming they can already reimburse some of it from FCF) = 72b / 1.6 = 45$/share. It's also possible the market will like the new company more and give 20x, so 120b - 18b = 102 / 1.6 = 63$. So it all boils down to whether @ryancohen can deliver on the promised synergies. I have a very small position (2% of my money) on this. For me to get more interested I'd have to receive a higher discount from the post-merger no-synergies price (which I estimated above at 21.8$). Say a 20% discount would work for me. So I'm waiting for 18$ to build a larger position. And I think we can get there. If the deal happens and the shares issuance is announced, the market reaction could be very punitive for $GME's shares. We shall see. Fun times though. Anyway, this is not investment advise, do your own due diligence.

  Mercari is a great platform for selling low end sports cards: quick listings, east to search stores, 10% fees and 49¢ shipping up to 3 oz. The problem? Four cards are automatically treated as 4 oz, forcing Ground Advantage. Let sellers adjust the weight like eBay does, and I might sell exclusively there. @mercari_app #sportscards

  @DooleyHabad Look at the images lol. His post is the same dent. The only problem is the mark in his photo looks like camera glare because in his description he literally says if it isn’t listed, there’s no damage. Then he admitted in messages he missed it, but won’t try to make it right. I have to now waste time going through eBay because he’s a POS.

  @CardsMax Not everything can be worth something. You bought some 2024 Topps chrome all etch Ohtani off me on eBay by happenstance. When throwaway inserts like that for Ohtani are worth more than rookie autos we’re in trouble. If everything is worth something, then it’s all worth nothing

  @eBay has a serious problem with it’s AI flagging listings for PRESALE violations that couldn’t be more in-policy. Maybe let your inept AI flag a possible “violation” & have human eyes verify before pulling it. You make BILLIONS through your sellers, DO BETTER.

  Diecast Hype (@DiecastHype) reported 27 minutes ago

  Please don’t go out and spend $300-$500 on this chase. This one will come down on the secondary market. This set has just started hitting stores. It hasn’t even reached every major online retailer yet, and once more cases hit along with Walmart Car Culture complete sets, supply is only going to grow. To make matters worse, people are already selling fake gold versions and calling them “customs” over on @eBay. If you don’t know exactly what you’re buying, you could end up paying a premium for something that isn’t even an official Mattel release. IMO, this isn’t the Mountain Drifters LBWK chase, and it isn’t Roxy. The 10th Anniversary theme is cool, but the gold just doesn’t hit the same way the black chases do. I think the real long term collectible will be the complete set of 10th Anniversary gold chases, not each chase individually. I see this settling somewhere around $150-$200 once the dust settles. Don’t let launch week FOMO make the decision for you. #HotWheels

  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.

  @Kyl0Z3n Not tank, both will stay range bound though. If there’s a filing from RCs pledged $500M I’d assume inverse action with GME trending down and eBay up. NFA of course 🫡

  @hamati351840512 @prisma_illya US release of season 1 is not sold anywhere anymore. (unless it is $300 or more on ebay, and that's rare) You can buy season 2/3 US just fine at normal price As to why, I would like to know. But releasing another season in the US when you can't buy the first season is a problem.

  @bitwsammy eBay doesn’t authenticate based on card classification. They will reject authentication if there’s major damage, but they let so much other **** go. Maybe you haven’t bought many cards before but this is a massive problem right now with many buyers. I bid on the card thinking it was a camera glare. When I got it, it was dented bad. Description says this exactly lol, that if it isn’t listed, theres no damage.

  @OnlyCharizard @Dantheman7513 I don’t agree with that at all. I had several discussions with Peak Hobby and saw plenty of their content. This feels like making an excuse for poor platform engineering- which this likely is. If you think pokemon raffles was why, you haven’t been on any of these social platforms ever. I have seen full boats raffles off with zero oversight on FB, alcohol sales on EBay. It’s compliance issue on Xs side for the program.

  the ugly web dev history, frontend. I was ignorant of JavaScript and frontend tech, from 1999 to 2010. am a web backend dev in 1998. back then, professional programers sneer JavaScript (and php). except, those big corp actually need to use it sans choice, such as gmail, google map, amazon, ebay. (the need to update page sans reloading the whole page.) Only when Node.js in 2009 By Ryan Dahl, changed things. It introduced the async, which puzzled and derided by most programers. (async, a pain in the ***. One of the worst thing in programing language history, still so today, even with latest await etc. Reason is because js is single threaded. Async is a pretend fix on this concurrency issue.) In 2010 js did not have a library system. (nor did php, scheme lisp, for the first 10 years of their life. emacs lisp has no module/namespace to this day.) Commonjs and amdjs module system mess got introduced in the wild. A very complicated mess, which created concepts like bundlers (browserify, webpack), code repo and package manager (bower, npm), task runners (gulp). npm is a corp greed, designed so that 1 line code is considered a lib, to promote its popularity. Then in 2015, js finally had some basic features, such as real local scoped variable (let), real dictionary/hashtable/map data structure. but for reason, the JavaScript committee refused a “use new js”. (google chrome dev got stunk by a “use strict”.) So, one thousands warts of js, stays in js. (such as var, use strict, string is utf16 and all methods cant deal with emoji, no real array masking as magical object with magical length. etc.) JavaScript landscape, is really 30 years of **** pile due to a in-10-days mistake. But cpp is worse.

  23 Week Recap Days 1-161 Total sales: $72,009.76 Buy cost (COG): $12,244.87 eBay earnings: $41,642.51 Net profit: $29,397.64 ROI: 240% 790+ items sold. 161 consecutive days documented. When I started documenting this journey, the goal wasn't to show perfect days. It was to show what consistent execution looks like over time. There have been returns. Canceled orders. Defective items. Slow moving inventory. Days with 1 sale. Days with 10+ sales. None of those individual days determined the outcome. What mattered was continuing to source inventory with healthy margins, listing consistently, & letting time do the heavy lifting. I've sold everything from automotive parts and industrial equipment to marine electronics, plumbing supplies, medical devices, printer components, motorcycle parts, & countless other categories. The lesson isn't that you need one perfect niche. The lesson is that buying well & staying consistent creates opportunities every single day. This business compounds 1 listing, 1 sale, & 1 customer at a time. Buy right. List consistently. Stay patient. The singles keep adding up. Most people overestimate what 1 day can do & underestimate what 161 days of consistency can do. #Reselling #BuildInPublic
