  @foxenflask You know that gme and ebay are not a combined company, right? maybe down the road.. but I feel like that may be what you are missing. Hopefully that helps.

  @MMJDanM R.O.D. was a pain to find again. I had to get the OVA's off of Amazon but had to hunt down the series on Ebay, wasn't too expensive either at least.

  Let's do some napkin 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 adds 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. Ryan mentioned today in the Bloomberg interview he is working through an influx of inquiries, which means the deal and capital structure are also evolving. 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. When the stock is at $40 warrants will be worth around $10-12 depending on when* the deal goes through. Warrant expiry can be extended and strike can be lowered. I don’t have a crystal ball but once again I must ask, what am I missing?

  @Jeffdeehan Having firsthand experience with situations like this, I can tell you that, generally speaking, most of this equipment is worthless. I would strongly suggest grabbing someone with solid kitchen experience to walk through the space with you. Have them pull any proprietary or potentially valuable components—control boards, circuit boards, specific switches, or the occasional useful part. That said, the most important thing to know is that the vast majority of it is junk. You’ll likely be able to reduce everything down to just a few boxes of keepers. Sell those on eBay (or similar), make a few bucks, and take your team out for lunch. Then call your local recycler to haul away the rest. Trust me—your desire to squeeze out a few extra dollars isn’t worth the pain of trying to market, store, or move this stuff. The secondary market for used restaurant equipment is extremely limited.

  @0x_Mattt I’m excited for Ryan as a seller but hesitant, we don’t truly know if things will be fixed or get worse. I think that’s why eBay has a “do nothing” stance to avoid more issues. Their systems are so unfair at times but many people don’t leave eBay because of long time success.

  @norzemen @KimKatieUSA He did more than lie. I will take any law enforcement we can get these days. Im right there with ya man. Shits getting old when blatant laws being broke and we see zero mug shots. Absolutely pisses me off. I get in trouble if I dont pay taxes on my $601 eBay sales. I wish I knew whats going on but I have my suspicions. I think its all blackmail in the end. Maybe threats to family. Bribes.. all of the above. So like I mentioned,I will take what I can get. 🤙

  Thesis: Marketplaces are the last unbundled monopoly on the internet. Shopify unbundled the store so anyone can run one. Stripe unbundled payments. YouTube unbundled media. But the marketplace itself? The aggregator layer where fees live? That still belongs to a handful of giants, because running one required solving four expensive problems at once: 1. Listing labor. Every item needs a title, specs, condition, price. eBay outsources that work to sellers…it’s why garages stay full. With AiG a photo is a listing: vision Ai drafts all of it in seconds. The supply side unlocks when listing costs nothing. 2. Niche structure. eBay gives every category the same generic form; that’s why collectors fled to Discord and StockX. Here each marketplace generates its own schema like a synth market knows “voices” and “MIDI,” a comic market knows “grade” and “press.” Vertical-grade data, horizontal-scale infrastructure. 3. Distribution. Incumbents charge sellers extra for visibility (promoted listings). With AiG it’s inverted: anyone who shares a listing earns 3% of the sale carved from the platform’s cut, not the seller’s. Marketing is a revenue share, not an ad spend. 4. The fee layer itself. This is the real unbundling. Describe a niche in one sentence and you own the marketplace with your fee (0–8%) on every sale, forever. Sellers keep up to 92%. On the incumbents, sellers pay ~13–15% and own nothing. Payments? Cards work. $USDC on @Solana works too and no buyer account necessary either way. Rails are table stakes; ownership is the product. Shopify made everyone a merchant. Aigenesis makes anyone an @eBay. Ai for Everyone. 🧬

  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.

  The marketplace moves 24/7. You can't manually reprice across Amazon, eBay, Google Shopping, Meta, and TikTok—and that's where margin bleeds. Built CompeteIQ to fix that. AI monitoring 15,000 SKUs at 99%+ matching accuracy. Autopilot repricing with MAP enforcement.

  @OptaSTATS @Yankees And yet the card market treats him like a role player. For a résumé no one else in history matches, Bellinger trades at just a $17 average across 135 eBay tracked sales in 90 days, with only 2 cards clearing $100. The hobby priced him off the down years, not the trophy case. One of the most decorated players in the game, sitting in the bargain bin.

  Ryan Cohen explains why dilution will be worth it for $GME investors if the eBay deal goes through “There's different forms of dilution. Most dilution is dilutive to shareholders. If you do the math you’re buying a business for $56 billion, and the business is forecasted to make over $3.5 billion in 2025. Plus I've committed to pulling $2 billion of costs out.” “So you're at over five and a half billion of EBITDA. And then the ability to take this platform and build a much, much larger business. The upside is huge.” “I wouldn't go and buy a business if I didn't think I can take it from $56 billion and turn it into multiples larger. So it's accretive to shareholders, but most of the time when companies are issuing shares, it's dilutive and earnings per share goes down.” “Most of the time you have management teams. A company that collects tons of risk free compensation and they're not aligned with shareholders. In this case, it's a different story.”

  @AmazonHelp That's a stupid answer; I buy on eBay, from an unemployed young Columbian engineer 'in London', it arrives from Amazon, fulfilled by Diane Evans.. He later claims he has "a warehouse with Amazon", wants the error item 'returned' to him near the Costa del Crime in Spain. "Normal"?

  @whitebriefsbro You’re acting like this is bad news. Sorry, I don’t buy cheap underwear. Fruit of the Loom’s stitching and fabric are terrible. They own BVD, but not the Japanese rights, so I buy Japanese BVD on eBay. If it’s holding my junk, I want quality, not bargain-bin fabric.
