    $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 awesome! At this current rate GameStop (GME) would pay roughly $44billion for eBay instead of the $56billion they offered. However, @ryancohen you’re playing a dangerous game here. What if they decide to issue new stock diluting your stock to oblivion to avoid the hostile takeover?

    @unusual_whales So if GME just direct registered a total of 9.8% of EBay shares… what institution or institutions will be filing that their stake in EBay just went down substantially?

    @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.

  • THFpro_Cards
    🐝 Bee's Cards Emporium 🐝 (@THFpro_Cards) reported

    I have an official pet peeve with you @eBay you guys need to fix your tracking system for eBay standard envelopes. I received a card I purchased a week and a half ago and it still shows tracking on my purchase list instead of delivered. If this was a new seller that sold me this card they wouldn't be getting paid because it's not marked delivered yet. I strongly recommend for the benefit of both buyer and seller to figure out a different method for tracking eBay standard envelopes. #ebay #thehobby

    @LorcanaVillain Did I not just explain 3 times it comes down to eBay sellers yeah I know what the cards are going for, there not even going for msrp anymore after yesterday, I explained why the game has skyrocketed, being a eBay seller is a business to some, that's why the game is "exploding"

    @Zodyrus Try and sell your proxies on ebay & youll get them taken down & your account suspended. Why? because they are ILLEGAL & Pokemon goes after the people selling them. Dont listen to some random ******* on Twitter. Email Pokemon what is legal & what isnt. You are breaking the law

    @StonksMae eBay can issue 1 preferred share on Monday with rights to 1B voting power for the sole purpose of preventing a hostile take over. There is nothing stopping them from doing so. It's called blank cheque preferred shares.

    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 stun by a “use strict”.) So, one thousands warts of js, stay 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.

    @MangiMi2 The first line in the description you posted says "You are bidding on the EXACT card in the picture" and then you highlighted the flaw in the photo on the listing. That is why ebay authenticated it. Your issue should be with them.

  • Catscollecttcg

    @CardGameNomad Idk again talking and watching these people there is two types and neither get affected this way. Either 1) Like you are saying the price drops and they imminently PANIC sell at the next weekends card show and move it all again at a loss but prob not much different than Rudy or 2) have enough money to like a stock say "EH" and throw it in the warehouse for 5+ years and it becomes x3. I see your argue and do agree with you but its like when people say if we didnt buy japanese boxes the price would come down but thats just not true. We are usually the cheapest, if me, sakura, dot, ETC closed shop you would be stuck buying from eBay at higher prices and less transparency.

    At 14 I was smoking an e-cigarette at school - People kept asking how to get one - Had them pay me upfront, then delivered a month later, became "the e-cigarette guy" - Wanted to buy a cell phone, found the same one on a Chinese site way cheaper than eBay - Copied the listing to eBay just to try it, got my first sale within three hours The next step: - Ran it on eBay for almost 7 years, used my parents' apartment as the warehouse - eBay suspended my account for a violation and crashed the business overnight - Opened a new account, then thought: what if they suspend me again? - Opened 100 eBay accounts straight away, managed them all manually - Built a piece of software just to manage my own accounts The step after that: - Went to dropshipping conferences, people kept asking how I managed my own business - Told them about the software, a black screen that ran my 100 accounts, and they wanted it - Saved every one of them in my WhatsApp as eBay 1, eBay 2, eBay 3 - Launched with no marketing site, just a login page and a register page - Gave it free for a few weeks, then started charging straight away Then a hacker got in: - About a year in, someone changed every user's username to his own - Switched all their PayPal payout accounts to his, so the money flowed to him - I went live on Facebook, opened the camera, and explained exactly what happened - Competitors saw the chaos and tried to poach our users with affiliate offers - Nobody left, because we were that transparent about all of it Then COVID hit: - Every competitor slowed down, froze hiring, and braced for the worst - We decided this was our money time instead - Hired our first Head of HR and doubled the company within a year - That's when we took the market The last big step: - Ran a 6-month acquisition process with a private equity firm - Aligned on the price, the terms, everything, right up to the signing day - Walked away the day before, because I didn't trust the CEO - Didn't believe in their model of cutting people just to fix the P&L - Kept focusing on what was good for the business Now: - Bootstrapped AutoDS from zero - Sold the company to Fiverr at 28 - Still building three more companies from zero

    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.

    25 years ago one of these anchors would have brought in Ebay CEO Jamie Iannone when they are interviewing Ryan Cohen Split screen, have it out in public. Jerry Springer style Thats the problem with the leadership at Ebay. They are installed puppets to a company that was 99% insitutionally owned. Blackrock doesnt get mad when they pay themselves extortionate fees, thats a part of the game The big companies have the same group of people moving from one company to the next. They are there to extract value for themselves and their friends. Thats it

    @eBay where is my money for the items I sold? Funds were supposed to be released July 17, but they are still in the “On Hold” phase. Customer support says you have a “technical glitch” with all sellers funds being stuck “in processing” phase. WHAT is going on?!
