  $GME $EBAY GameStop can bypass or dismantle eBay's poison pill by employing specific, aggressive corporate governance strategies. A poison pill (shareholder rights plan) does not completely stop a takeover; it simply forces the bidder to negotiate with the board or take the battle directly to the shareholders. To push the acquisition through, GameStop and CEO Ryan Cohen can use three primary legal and financial avenues. 1. Launch a Proxy Contest to Replace the Board •The Strategy: GameStop can nominate its own slate of directors for eBay's next annual meeting. •The Mechanism: If eBay shareholders elect GameStop's nominees, the new board can vote to redeem (cancel) the poison pill. •The Outcome: Once the new board removes the pill, GameStop can safely execute its $125-per-share tender offer without triggering severe dilution. 2. File a Lawsuit Challenging the Pill •The Strategy: GameStop can sue the eBay board in court (typically Delaware Chancery Court). •The Argument: GameStop would argue that the board is breaching its fiduciary duties by using the pill to block a premium offer solely to entrench themselves. •The Outcome: If the court finds the eBay board's defense disproportionate, a judge can order the board to pull down the pill, forcing them to let shareholders vote on the deal. 3. Condition the Tender Offer on Board Approval •The Strategy: GameStop can launch a public tender offer directly to eBay shareholders but add a "minimum tender condition." •The Mechanism: GameStop states it will only buy the shares if a supermajority (e.g., 70% or 80%) of eBay shareholders agree to sell, and the eBay board removes the pill. •The Pressure: If the vast majority of eBay investors tender their shares, the extreme pressure usually forces the board to dismantle the pill and negotiate, fearing massive shareholder lawsuits if they refuse. The Underlying Fuel: The July 7 Vote To make any of these strategies credible, GameStop must pass its own July 7, 2026 proposals. Increasing its authorized shares to 2.5 billion gives GameStop the financial ammunition to buy a massive stake or offer an overwhelmingly attractive stock-and-cash deal that eBay shareholders cannot ignore.

  @TCGPokePlug @eBay Whatnot is the closest site to take down eBay, but sadly it's filled with scammers, and that turns off buyers. Until we get a legitimate alternative eBay and their fees, and their shipping scams, and their counterfeit items will unfortunately have to suffice.

  $GME You idiots keep asking why Ryan isn't reacting to eBay's rejection. Because it helps him. A $2B buyback at $21.50 could boost per-share value by ~26%. Then issue 1.5B shares and raise $40B+. Plus profit ebay options eBay was never the plan.

  @AmourageCapital @xbtforever Nothing really. I’d guess they continue raising their ownership in eBay or issue a tender offer. Some people have spectated they buy back shares but I doubt it. Good point that they haven’t been correlated! I tend to think solana:7HgfXftRBBqsYtAEYcqjGLQrNJLL6Tww9ek4rE3Apump is correlated to Roaring Kitty and that he will come back when there’s a solid reason like gmeXebay deal. I could envision a scenario where the deal is half stock for eBay and the deal currency of gme shares creates some sort of opportunity. All spectulation though

  @staypredictable Bonds are suppressing the price. Plus the 2.5 billion shares. Once buyback kicks in and big money comes on board price will run. Also shorts will pull the price down to make it harder to acquire eBay. But, time and patience always wins.

  @tedfrank @ScottFriedman3 You need to re-read it, because it's clear they need to offer comparable or better tickets first ...and they use the word offer for refund which means the person has the option to turn down the refund and make them comply with getting them tickets that are comparable or better. And by the way StubHub was a client of mine before they were bought out by EBAY and that's exactly how it is supposed to play out with the priority. If you're not satisfied with the replacements tickets only turn can they offer refund.

  From 2019 onwards, $EBAY has a pretty impressive rap sheet: - 2019: Execs ordered a stalking campaign against blogger couple the Steiners. Sent live bugs, a pig mask, and a funeral wreath to their home. GPS tracked their car. CEO Wenig ("take her down") walked with $57M severance. Never charged. - 2022: 7 employees convicted. Ringleader Jim Baugh sentenced to 57 months in federal prison. - 2023: DOJ sues eBay for selling 343K emissions defeat devices and illegal pesticides. Potential $1.9B exposure. - 2024: eBay pays $3M criminal fine (statutory max) to DOJ for the stalking. Same month, pays $59M for facilitating illegal pill press sales. - 2026: Steiner civil suit ($466M punitive ask) settled, then collapsed. Trial set for Jan 2027. Multiple DOJ actions. 7 convictions. Billions in exposure. A decade of self-inflicted chaos. Utter waste of shareholder capital, while the business and the margins have become stagnant at best, and way behind at worst. Is this board and CEO really the best to run this iconic American brand?

  @petriethedog I had hundreds. Over the years it got whittled down to 4 footlockers. Lost that about 15 years ago. Was sad but also liberating. I had been reading and collecting books since I was a boy. I got screwed selling a lot of it on ebay before an amtrack move from Boston to Orange County California in 2013.

  Let’s not panic about Proposal 4 failing at eBay’s annual meeting. It would only have been the easy way to bring the offer in front of eBay shareholders, by lowering the special meeting threshold to 10%. But the offer can still reach them through a Schedule TO, a tender offer filed directly with the SEC that bypasses the board entirely. To get there, though, one event is vital: the proposal we vote on as GameStop shareholders on July 7th, the increase in authorized shares from 1 billion to 2.5 billion. This is the most important near-term catalyst for the whole deal, since the $125 offer is split evenly between cash and GME stock, and the stock half simply doesn’t exist yet in sufficient quantity. GameStop is sitting near its current 1 billion authorized share ceiling, so without the increase, there aren’t enough shares to actually deliver the equity portion of the consideration. Regarding this, on June 8th GameStop filed a supplement to its proxy materials clarifying the voting standard for the share authorization proposal, and two things came out of it. First, the proposal is classified as a routine matter under NYSE rules. This matters because of how broker voting works. When a proposal is routine, brokers holding shares on behalf of retail clients can vote those shares at their own discretion even if the client gives no instruction. On non-routine matters, those uninstructed shares simply don’t get voted. GameStop’s retail base is enormous and notoriously slow to return voting instructions, so under a non-routine classification a huge block of shares would effectively sit out. Routine classification means brokers can vote that block, and historically broker discretionary votes lean toward management’s recommendation. Second, the supplement clarified that abstentions are not counted as votes cast, so they have no effect on the outcome. Only FOR and AGAINST votes count toward the threshold. This removes a common drag that sinks shareholder proposals where high abstention rates are driven by apathy or confusion. Put together, these two points meaningfully tilt the probability of passage in management’s favor. They don’t guarantee it, brokers vote according to their own policies and determined opposition can still organize, but the structural setup is favorable. Still learning. Still sharing. Not financial advice. $GME $EBAY

  @sneedweb I don’t understand why you’re still posting about eBay. The stock is down 20% since the offer. He doesn’t have anywhere near the cash or equity to finance this deal. The most cash he could get from the combined cashflow is like $7-8b, max. You’re watching this like it’s a damn tennis match. If eBay agreed today, he couldn’t do it, unless they gave him half the company. It’s a bluff, buddy. Stop talking about it. It’s not happening.

  Down 65% in 5 years, proposing a $35b comp plan. eBay up 65% in 5 years and have taken $500m — he is criticizing this. Basically, if GME makes back RC’s last 5 years of losses, and then gains like 100% on top of that, over 10 years, he will make $35b. GME holders will get a 6% annual return over 15 years. It’s okay to be mad at this. @ryancohen

  GM y'all! Here's the new project. I work on an SAR team and I have ATAK integrated with mesh on my phone but it's a pain to have to pull it out and look at it all the time while I'm working. So, new plan: Im going to find a cheap old GPS only Samsung Galaxy watch4 on eBay and use it to mirror my phones offline Google maps. I picked that watch because I need a smart watch that uses Wear OS because that will allow me to access and run actual Google maps natively within an app already designed to use them. Once I'm done I'll be able to have my watch running my location on gps and I just have to glance at my wrist. A lot less annoying than having to pull my phone out of a pouch or drop it down to look at it. Not a major problem by any means but fixing a small annoyance is still worth it.
