  @eBay fix your dogshit app. You charge too many seller fees for this bullshit. Can’t scroll past messages from a week ago. Fix your bullshit.

  @zerohedge GameStop acquiring eBay would be a wild full-circle moment (retailer buys marketplace) but Amazon doesn't need eBay's junk inventory problem. The real arbitrage is eBay's $3B cash hoard and collectors' moat—not competing with AWS or logistics. $GME gets a reve

  @JaguarAnalytics According to Gemini, with a Stock Swap "A stock swap is the most likely path. Instead of paying cash, GameStop would issue a massive amount of new shares and give them to eBay shareholders. The Math: GameStop would offer eBay shareholders, say, 4 shares of $GME for every 1 share of eBay. The Result: After the deal, the former eBay shareholders would own about 80% of the combined company, but the entity would still be called "GameStop," and Ryan Cohen’s management team would remain in control." Leverage buyout is the other option, but after building the massive cash reserve that would feel very counterintuitive.

  @pitdesi The leveraged debt on that is going to be insane… Both of them are also seeing a performance boost right now because of the explosion in Pokemon cards, and GMEs buyback program currently sells most of their slab acquisitions via EBay (and would recapture the sales fee here) The problem is Pokemon has its own boom bust cycles. It nearly always rises starting a year or two before an Anniversary edition releases and then that is peak and inventory collapses. The 30th anniversary set is scheduled for Sept/October of 2026. Sets that come after that are going to be dead inventory for a while and dealer volume will fall off. So unless he finds a way to rapidly expand the ARPU of non-card dealer volume on eBay, I suspect that servicing the debt starts to really crush them by Q1 ‘27 if they get a deal. Because without a *major* pivot for eBay, I don’t see how you get the margin up enough to get FCF to be enough to service the debt and they’ll have a pretty small window to do it in.

  Or, what about GameStop buying Venmo instead of Ebay? So far it’s all just rumors. I haven’t noticed GameStop issue any official PR… $GME $EBAY

  Now this is interesting. $EBAY has been a sleeping giant for the past 5 years. >70% gross margins. Decent revenue growth (tho slowing). ~16% ROIC. Forward PE of 16.93. And an astounding decrease in shares outstanding via buybacks. We're talking about 5-6% per year for the past 4 years, 15%(!) in 2022 alone. Besides financially, it'd be a huge pivot strategically for a retail store to tap into a massive online marketplace with a much more diverse audience. The problem? $GME market cap is $11.9B. $9B in cash. $EBAY market cap is $46B. For a deal like this to go through, there'd need to be a heavy amount of financing or leverage. Or the more feasible option, go directly to the shareholders of eBay. GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen has been acquiring eBay shares already. And he's stated his goals are to turn $GME into a $100B+ giant. More reports indicate that Cohen could be ready to submit a formal bid as early as this month. Mind you, this is the company that was the original meme stock of the whole trading frenzy we see today. Expect a lot of coverage on this one.

  @ShamashAran I check eBay for corporate cast-offs. I got a decent, well loaded Dell r720xd for my media server a few years ago. Looking into getting an r440 soon-ish to complete a proxmox HA cluster.

  $GME $AMC $BYND GME for dummies. Cohen dilutes every time here. See Red ARROWs are all dilution he likes giving you the big D. Dilution will be announced next week. Ebay has 7 billion in debt Cohen needs 18 billion to buy. Guess what pumper boys you get diluted down to 14.99 to raise the money. Have fun.

  I have never had so much trouble buying an AI computer as I have had with Amazon. Several fraud warnings, customer service has no power to fix anything, money is charged but on hold. I am cancelling our corporate account with Amazon and dealing directly with eBay from now on. We will buy our 80k a100 cluster from eBay instead. I have never seen so much money ******* in “suspected fraudulent orders” in my entire life. Big fail @amazon @eBay @grok is Amazon known for being highly neurotic followed by useless with customer service for large orders?

  It was suggested to me that I should use X to get @eBay attention. As your customer service has failed in every way. You can't talk to anyone and after two whole canned messages to me, i can't appeal or even message @eBay My purchase was delivered by #Asendia to the wrong location. I am in Canada. It was delivered to GLENDALE HEIGHTS IL. But eBay looked into it and ended my case. Here are two screen shots of my evidence. It's been over a week and #Asendia hasn't got back to me either. I'm out hundreds of dollars. Please fix this!!!

  @0hour1 Hmm this could be a Blockbuster-Netflix moment. Blockbuster was offered Netflix for 50 million dollars and turned it down. Let’s see how this pays out. But yes I use eBay all the time.

  @Xathian1 @nocontextmemes You buy a house with $300k cash or do you buy it with a $10k down payment…. It’s called leverage…. That said I genuinely don’t think they’re buying eBay they’ll buy something else the MSM has been wrong about everything on GameStop for years especially the “going bankrupt” thing

  @eBay Sold a watch through authentication, buyer initiated a return saying the stem came out upon first use. In my messages they sent a pic with the date changed and working and now I'm sitting with the case on hold twice waiting for them to return it. This is terrible service

  If any claim could convince me that an "Iraqi Hacker Group" is nothing of the sort it's the idea that eBay is somehow critical to an illegal US War effort. Not sure who's attacking Ubuntu but it's not revenge for killing the Ayatollah. I'll put $5 down on Ukraine, given timing.

  @amitisinvesting honestly, if gamestop with its $11B valuation buys ebay, the market will demand a clear, immediate path to profitability from the combined entity. strategic financing only solves half the problem - the other half is execution at scale.

  @AnAverageGamerX @eyeballic_ That doesn't even matter because anybody who gets a switch with the intention of getting it hacked down the line wont update in the first place. That's why there's still a ton of 1.0 PS consoles on ebay

  @MajorOcelot45 @michaeljburry Yes, millions still use eBay—136M active buyers, $22B+ GMV in Q1 2026 alone. It's a massive C2C/B2C marketplace for used/new goods, parts, collectibles. GameStop: FY2025 sales ~$3.6B (down YoY) as gaming goes digital. Pivoting to collectibles/trading cards + cost cuts for profits. Less foot traffic, more about cash position now.

  @spikesguides I do a lot of eBay shopping and noticed a sharp slowdown recently. Long story short, congress told the USPS to slow their roll so as to save on fuel costs. Not joking. Look it up.

  @AutoInfatuation @eBay_UK I bought a watch a few years ago. £3k. Seller sent me a box with screws in it. Took it up with eBay and PayPal back then. They backed the seller, shut down my PayPal and eBay accounts. Got proof from the police the seller was dodgy. They took no notice
