  eBay is going downhill fast when it comes to dealing with common issues Better communication teams are needed at that company or they will lose their most loyal customers and sellers #thefutureisalreadyhere

  RYAN COHEN $GME MAKES HIS CASE FOR WHY HE'S THE BEST PERSON TO BUY EBAY. “THERE'S 11,500 EMPLOYEES. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. I COULD RUN THAT BUSINESS FROM MY HOUSE. IT'S EBAY." "IT LOOKS THE SAME AS IT DID IN 1995. IT DOESN'T NEED 11,500 EMPLOYEES.” “THEY'RE SPENDING $5.5 BILLION ON OPERATING EXPENSES... ON AN $11 BILLION BUSINESS THAT HAS NO INVENTORY AND IS ASSET LIGHT.” “I'M GOING TO PAY DOWN THE LEVERAGE. AND I'M GOING TO INCREASE EARNINGS.” RYAN'S FULL RESPONSE:

  @meacouk & @meacouk_Cs does need to do something about scalpers as they're posting on x about buying air con units and reselling on eBay for £400+ profit. We need one of the units for my wife's heart issue as the heat makes it worse. But can't get one for scalpers!

  @JylesCards And this is why eBay’s 13% isn’t completely terrible. Yeah 0% sounds way better through X, Reddit, Facebook Marketplace etc. until you get ripped off, then the 13% doesn’t sound so bad.

  @Xeloris1 Fair point on the current market cap, GME has been dragged down partly by the arb short pressure and deal uncertainty, sitting closer to $9-10B right now. The $12B figure was the pre-bid reference point from when the offer was first announced in May. On the VWAP question, yes, the actual exchange ratio in a stock-for-stock leg of a deal like this is typically set based on a VWAP collar, usually a 10, 20 or 30-day VWAP around signing or a fixed ratio with a walk-away collar. So if GME's share price stays depressed, eBay holders negotiating the stock leg would demand either more GME shares per eBay share, a tighter collar, or a higher cash mix to compensate. That actually makes the current GME weakness interesting. If the deal prices the stock leg off a depressed VWAP, GME issues more shares to cover the $27-28B equity leg, which dilutes legacy GME holders below the 30% figure. But if GME's price recovers before the exchange ratio is locked, legacy holders retain more of NewCo. So the 30% is a snapshot at $12B. At $10B it probably slides toward 26-27% of NewCo on the same math, and the path back toward mid-30s% on economic look-through gets a little longer. The thesis is the same, the entry point is just more sensitive to where the VWAP lands at signing.

  @gamerprince1999 Tbh Ebay takes a cut, you have to compete with other sellers and you have to pay for shipping materials and hold responsibility until the buyer has the item. GameStop isn't stellar and has it's issues, but it does offer instant cash right now, no questions.

  $GME New all time low on the warrants with an end of October expiry and no one knows what’s happening with eBay because shareholders are edged and left in the dark watching penny up, penny down price action every day, week, month and year? lol @ryancohen what a piece of work.

  @TiffanyFong GameStop is buying eBay which no one expected. GameStop could probably make better movies too… Going down to Blockbuster, perusing the shelves, picking a movie, renting it, and buying snacks was still quicker than finding a film on Netflix. Does anyone else miss those days?

  @AMCbiggums Everyone fears big dilution but if we acquire ebay we will have a much much higher market cap and default share float.. so the math is completely new when RC would issue more shares. Am i wrong here?

  @fantasyscr6093 Tons. Listed all the time on eBay. Market has most Flair signed fakes figured out. This card has been listed several times through Probstein and now this consignment seller. It’s a terrible fake and should be a $35 to $45 card. It usually goes over $400 and then probably gets returned when they see posts or figure it out in hand. I messaged the seller and maybe they will see it and update or relist as reprint.

  Ever wonder how the card market shifts after a new set drops? Tuomas Holmberg breaks down the "FOMO effect" on early card grading vs. what happens when market efficiency actually takes over. ​"A brand new set comes out, people are very excited for the chase cards in the set. The first PSA 10 on eBay might sell for $4,000, you can go in and get an immediate grade with PSA by paying extra for it. You could go and pay 200, 300 bucks to get a card graded super fast." ​"Turn it around and then you could be the first one to sell it. And because somebody wants to say, 'Oh my god, I got the first one!', you have that FOMO effect, so you're able to sell these cards really fast." "But then, of course, you have market efficiency and everybody who submitted that card at a more value tier, slower tier, is gonna wait a few months to get it." "Often you see some of the top hits and top pulls, they start out at a ridiculous number and then they slowly go down over time." "And then, if you're a collector, that's where you start to buy it. You start to try to pick that bottom and then you'll see the price of the card go up over time."

  Pokemon create shell companies like MJ HOLDINGS and sell things near MSRP on TCG player + eBay to keep prices down. When something goes too high, drop 1000 ETBs, Market dips. Since, you know anyone can manipulate TCGplayer. Manipulate it for good baby.

  HE IGNORED THE #1 PIECE OF HOMELAB ADVICE — "BUY A CHEAP USED SERVER OFF EBAY" — AND BUILT A RACK THE SIZE OF A TOASTER INSTEAD Everyone tells beginners the same thing: grab an old Dell PowerEdge for $80, it's enterprise-grade, it's a bargain. What they don't tell you: it screams like a jet engine, pulls 100W+ sitting idle, and heats the room it lives in. That "cheap" server costs you $150+ a year in electricity alone — every year, forever. So he went the opposite way. One 10-inch mini rack on a desk. Mini PCs that sip ~10W each instead of rack servers. A network switch. A small touchscreen on top running his dashboard — the whole lab visible at a glance. Quiet enough to sit next to. Small enough to carry under one arm. Uses less power than a light bulb. Pause at 1:35 — the eBay listings of used PowerEdge servers he almost bought. Then look at what's actually sitting on his desk at the end. That contrast is the whole video. Most homelab guys measure their setup in rack units and decibels. He measured his in "would I actually want this thing in my room." Skip the eBay trap. Buy small. Stack quiet. Full build in the video.

  @MorgenHatton @gamestop @ryancohen GameStop writes off the game and donates it. Someone steals the game. Then sells it on eBay through GameStop. Then eventually whoever bought the game trades it in for a small GameStop credit and GameStop eventually writes the game off and donates it. Infinite Money Glitch!🚀🎊🎉

  @ThePPseedsShow Agreed, 6 years holding is long enough. We’ve done our part it’s time for some ******* action. We’ve missed out on a lot of other investments for trying to fix the system. I believe we win in the end but damn it sucks not to have more clarity other than the pursuit of eBay.

  Multi-channel sellers lose sales to stockouts because manual inventory tracking across Shopify, Amazon, eBay, and Walmart breaks down. Built Restockly to fix that. It watches your stock levels everywhere and fires purchase orders to suppliers automatically when inventory drops

  Caller: “ I’m 61 with no retirement savings and living in low income housing” Caller: I’m 61, recently divorced, living in subsidized housing, and I have no retirement savings. I’m working 25 hours a week as a cashier and I just don’t know how to get ahead. Dave: This is primarily an income problem. 25 hours a week as a cashier isn’t enough, you need more hours or a different income stream entirely. What’s holding you back? Caller: I have bad knees and a bad back, so anything physical like cleaning or caregiving is off the table. Dave: Then we shift to what you can do. Can you cook? Do you have items around the house you’re not using? Caller: I do have a lot of stuff, yes. Dave: Start selling it on Facebook Marketplace and eBay. I know someone who made $800,000 in a year just reselling items, it’s a real, scalable business if you work it seriously. Caller: I wouldn’t even know where to start. Dave: You start with what’s already in your home, learn the platforms, and build from there. Use your mind, not your back. It’s not too late, Jenny but fear cannot be the thing that stops you. Caller: I needed to hear that. Dave: I’m going to send you Ken Coleman’s book, The Proximity Principle, to help you think through your next career move. Read it and take action. Caller: Thank you, Dave.
