  @tspencer322 @eBay Ebay has been growing sales and been profitable each of the past 4 years. RC will fix that!

  @BradGreb @WallyBuckLive @ryancohen Elon needs a massive E-commerce engine for X, and building one is too slow. Buying eBay via $GME is the ultimate shortcut. ​RC wipes eBay’s $2.4B marketing bloat by moving it to X. X Payments becomes the backbone. With the Sultan’s backing, $100B Market Cap is the blueprint.

  @baseball_cards Neutral and negative feedback needs to be approved by @ebay. Too many buyers are ignorant and don’t understand what it means. I new eBay user just left me neutral feedback bc “in their option, the 38 year old card doesn’t look as good as it did in the pictures.” The same card they saw is the card they got, and bc of their “opinion” - my perfect feedback record gets destroyed and there’s nothing I can do about it. EBAY MUST FIX THIS.

  @ValueAddedRS @ryancohen I noticed while going through Reddit eBay complaints that this was a big issue. Also noticed complaints of wrong item and broken into packages where cards were removed etc with no help from customer service.

  @ManehattanStonk @leadlagreport Half cash (~$27.75B) + half stock (~$27.75B) = $55.5B offer. Cash side: $9.4B on hand + up to $20B TD financing = $29.4B. Covers it. Stock side: Issue new GME shares worth ~$27.75B to eBay holders (at $125/share equivalent). Math adds up via new debt + dilution. Execution and premium are the real questions.

  I like playing @ryancohen and $GME with $PHUN … as it’s the same EXACT problem there as it is at @ebay. And all the Directors and Officers know it. This thesis is the same in both cases. Useless grifting boards and execs without $1 at risk. Every. Single. Time.

  Man, $XRT is still struggling with all the $GME volatility. I don’t want to hear anyone say that xrt isn’t affected by GME anymore. You gotta think tho, would state street, vanguard and blackrock really want this deal to go down with eBay? All 3 own a lot of both companies and they would probably have the final approval from eBay’s side. They probably love eBay the way it is, kick backs and all? Vanguard and blackrock own a lot of $UBS too. Conflicting interests if there’s a squeeze.🤔 What would happen with GME legacy shorts? Would the new GME/ebay cusip relieve them of their short positions? Or would it be gme3?

  GameStop’s mysterious financing letter underpinning its audacious $56 billion bid for eBay is emerging as a central issue in the proposed takeover, as questions mount over whether the deal is actually financeable. The video game retailer said it has lined up a $20 billion financing commitment from TD Securities, part of TD Bank. But a key condition attached to this letter could ultimately make or break the deal: the combined company would need to maintain an investment-grade credit profile, CNBC’s David Faber reported, citing people who have seen the document. Moody’s Ratings said Wednesday that the proposed acquisition would be “credit negative” for eBay because of the substantial increase in leverage implied by the deal structure. $GME

  @ryancohen ebay is horrible, terrible to its account holders! I've been trying to get my money out since 2021. they restricted withdrawals because I had issues selling back in 2020. I got sick with COVID and couldn't ship packages out in time, so bad reviews locked the account. I haven't sold in 6 years, and told them to restrict my account from selling, but release my funds. I don't care; I'll never sell again. Every time I call @ebay to amend the issue, they clear the account restriction and assure me the money will be transferrable...then their system reverts back to restricting withdrawals! I understand your frustration; they're awful. I'm at the point where I'm considering hiring an attorney to sue them, but the $8,700 probably isn't worth it. This is unfair.

  GameStop just made a $56 billion offer to buy eBay, a company four times its size. The plan: combine the two and take on Amazon. The problem? GameStop only has $29 billion, leaving a $27 billion hole. When CEO Ryan Cohen went on CNBC to explain where the rest was coming from, he couldn't. Is this GameStop's comeback moment, or the beginning of the end?

  Sold out in minutes, eBay listings right on schedule, and Valve's fix is... an actual line. Reservations, one per account, 72 hours to buy. Amazing how fast scalping looks solvable when a company decides players should get first crack at the thing.

  Nicholas A. Pantano (@npantano_) reported 33 minutes ago

  @FartieFrenchie Literally wrote "sent to EBAY," in stock. Literally. GME has enough cash, it doesn't need more than it has plus TD's marker. What it NEEDS is a higher stock price to justify the other $28 Billion they NEED to GIVE TO EBAY to AFFORD the "half stock" portion. It can't be any more clear: -10B Cash -20B TD -29B Stock (which they only have half of TODAY) If Cohen dilutes AT CLOSING w GME at $24, 550m shares (maximum allowed) he only raises $13B to give to Ebay in STOCK. He's short $15B. Exactly the issue and exactly why the stock must DOUBLE to fulfill this problem. The dilution happens FROM GME, AT GME's STOCK PRICE, AT CLOSING. This is why Sorkin pressed him on the $15b.

  Glitch Truth (@glitchtruth) reported 39 minutes ago

  GameStop just offered $56 billion to buy eBay. That's the entire price tag, cash and stock combined. Ryan Cohen runs GameStop. The company sits on about $5 billion in cash and securities. eBay's market cap is around $30 billion. The offer values eBay at nearly double what the public market thinks it's worth, and GameStop doesn't have the money to back it. Cohen says it'd be a stock-and-cash deal, which means GameStop would have to issue paper worth more than its entire current company to close the math. Carl Icahn tried this exact play on eBay back in 2014. He failed for the same reason: you cannot buy a $30 billion company with $5 billion unless somebody agrees your shares are worth what you say they are. eBay's board hasn't even acknowledged the bid. No financing commitment filed. No advisor named. No path to actually closing. So why announce a $56 billion offer you cannot fund? Because the headline moves GME harder than the deal ever could. Cohen's whole playbook since 2021 has been turning corporate filings into retail catalysts. This is the boldest version yet.

  @ryancohen Rug them too. Sell the 5% and do the buyback on GME with the 100mio you have authorised. Market already saw what you put out there. It will respond by crashing ebay and you'll buy it with 30-50% discount easy week to months down the road.

  @unusual_whales Economic downturns are great for eBay, as people start selling their foreign-made crap. Big numbers ahead. The problem is the constant squeeze on merchants for every little drop of profit, like Etsy.

  Julie Wade (@julie_wade) reported 51 minutes ago

  @foxenflask @ryancohen The Vulnerability of Gen Z Commerce The specific nature of Depop’s marketplace makes it an ideal target for these activities. Unlike the stable pricing seen on platforms like Amazon, Depop relies on "hype" pricing where a standard shirt might sell for hundreds of dollars based on perceived social value. This volatility, combined with the use of atypical payment methods like Venmo and Apple Pay, makes it nearly impossible for automated systems to distinguish a "fake" transaction from a legitimate Gen Z fashion trend. In conclusion, while there is no evidence of corporate complicity, eBay has acquired a platform that is structurally vulnerable to being a playground for transaction laundering. The massive loss Etsy took on the sale may suggest an acknowledgment of these deep-seated operational risks. eBay has doubled down on a high-risk asset, betting that the brand facelift provided by Depop is worth the potential for regulatory and financial exposure.

  Look @ryancohen you should hire me to do healthcare for GME and eBay. I could use DPC, DSC, direct contracting - with physician-led enterprises - and Cost Plus Drugs (@mcuban) to drive your healthcare costs way down. Mercer (2025 National Survey): Average total cost of employer-sponsored health insurance = $17,496 per employee (~$1,458/month). Employers expect ~6.7% increase in 2026 → >$18,500/year. eBay has ~12,000 employees. GME has ~4,000 employees. We can turn your expense into an asset, spin this off into its own enterprise in 24-36 months, and make money by actually saving corporations money. Thank you for your attention to this matter! **(I’ll do it for half cash, half stock)**
