  @themgmtconsult @rorysutherland Yup, I just posted about the broken search, bloody horrible to try and use. I normally just give up and go to eBay instead.

  @rorysutherland I don't want them to be successful at this (and therefore charge 10% more) success for my friend involves buying badly described and photographed good things, and polishing up the images and description to sell at a profit on ebay. I want my Amazon prices held down thank you!

  @ryancohen When You aquire E-Bay You could start Ebay Auctions You should bring AMC into the fold the stock is oppressed however We shake the shorts, and dark pools by block chaining the securities into coins. AMC is worth a ton mostly owned by retail. That may be too much for You to take on. I truly hope we do more damage to hedge funds because they've been cheating us for five years in Barclay bank securities. All kinds of stuff went down.

  @aida_studios when ebay took over KO the prices went down to like $16 per mint on the front page not here for the devaluation of art not sure what the answer is necessarily, and I'm not so hip on the same old characters at the part of the space that was taken over by trad and cabal players on the "higher end"

  @FrancisJeffrey7 According to me at least $5000 estimated value excluding the value for buying from Francis Jeffrey . If I were there, If I lived in US, I definitely would buy one. I'm having serious problems with international purchases. Smaller ones are selling for around $1000 on eBay.

  Free tip for eBay sellers: Review ALL open orders before 9 AM every day. Check: → Unfulfilled orders from yesterday → Tracking not yet updated → Shipments past delivery date 10 minutes. Catches 80% of issues before customers notice. The other 20% needs a system

  @ThePPseedsShow @ryancohen is not working alone. The announcement of the Boston arrests three days before the eBay deal speaks volumes. The alleged crime is insider trading on merger and acquisition deals.

  Fadi (@shahf82) reported 16 minutes ago

  @FartieFrenchie @Shripriya @ryancohen Completely agree on the opex issue - it's killing margins. The 30 day money-back guarantee is a straight-up magnet for scammers. No way to enforce basic supplier SOPs like 'photo of fit + missing/damaged parts within 48hrs' when eBay just gives buyers instant refunds no questions asked.

  @OldMechGaming @SomethingClassc Absolutely! Also, I was having trouble getting the website to work. I believe it's not working right now because the Owner is away. His primary business is on Ebay and his Profile page says the Seller is Away until May 31st. I think that might be why his website isn't working right now. You can see that blue ribbon text on top stating he is away right now. Maybe set a reminder to check back the beginning of June. Tons of cool shirts you'd probably like!

  The $EBAY board stands as a textbook example of a governance body that has abandoned its fiduciary responsibilities at virtually every level of corporate stewardship. They have: - Awarded themselves generous, low-risk compensation packages bearing no meaningful relationship to shareholder returns or accretive corporate value - Neglected the core platform and systematically eroded the customer experience, their most valuable asset, while perfecting the art of managed stagnation and extracting from the business rather than building it - Mismanaged operations and capital allocation to the point of paying outsized acquisition premiums simply to offset organic buyer losses, while leaning on widening GAAP-to-non-GAAP adjustments to sustain the appearance of margin stability - Cultivated a culture of organizational waste and entitlement, reflected in redundant management layers and frivolous uses of shareholder capital, that has quietly hollowed out execution capacity across the company - Failed entirely to capitalize on eBay’s brand equity and the secular tailwinds in e-commerce, resale, and digital commerce innovation, remaining effectively dormant at every critical strategic inflection point The opportunity here in the hands of an operator like Ryan Cohen and a board like that of $GME extends well beyond any near-term pro forma or post-acquisition re-rating. Join me, @ValueAddedRS, and @BoilerPaulie tomorrow on this space as we break it all down.

  @CornGhost88 I’m very confused. I also got a Chinese copy from eBay , and was able to use that copy to get the Chinese list. This …. Looks like a Chinese copy??? What is the issue?

  @Kyl0Z3n No. He will acquire someone else and transform that business and eBay will stagnate until someone else buys it and strips it down and sells it off for parts

  @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.

  @Stonkfather2021 That's not an opinion, RC & GME made an offer to buy ebay stock at 125/share - that's the only reason ebay shares went up 10+%. If they don't accept the deal then the stock goes back down and the call premiums decrease. What's so hard to understand about that.

  @jazzanchovy I bought my refurbished MacBook Air on Amazon and I do not recommend lol when it's at 10% battery it shuts down; same with eBay, though, I bought refurbished airpods and I can't use them to talk. It may just be a game of picking the right sellers

  I have been trying to get a replacement for 3 weeks for a broken @HuionTab tablet. I've had no help whatsoever, and they made it impossible for me to get a refund through eBay. So now I'm screwed out of $700 and they refuse to replace the defective unit.

  @hectacorns @letemshort @Kidsmealstudios technically speaking, if ebay deal doesn't go through, the board can issue new shares at any spike

  Hearing a lot of complaints about Inventory Lab lately. If its not working for you, you may want to check out PrepShipHub. Starts at $39 a month. Supports Amazon, Walmart, Ebay and Shopify. Has a warehouse feature that is great for holds and those storing products. Has a returns module that alone is worth the price of admission. They offer 30 day free trial. Have discord channel with access to instant support. No its NOT my software, but the owner of my prep center created it to address issues they had managing their prep center with existing listing/shipping software so I've been a user for 5+ years from the PC side and been using since launch of individual user side. Love having reporting on our Walmart, Ebay, Shopify and Amazon all in one place!

  Let me try and explain what this means (for those in the back). 1. $GME pays 50% of the eBay acquisition costs in cash. This buyout pays existing eBay shareholders (if they choose to do so) $125 for their stock 2. Authorized shares are what the company CAN issue, but are not yet issued issued. 3. If approved, GME can issue another 1.5b shares 4. Instead of selling those to the market which causes dilution, the plan is to ROLL them into ebay by exchanging current shareholder stock OF eBay with an equivalent number of GME shares If you're holding eBay shares at the time of acquisition, your stock will be valued at $125 per share. If GME is valued at $25, you'll receive 5 shares of GME in exchange. New stock is not being issued and sold in the open market (this time)... its exchanged 5:1 ( $GME : $EBAY )

  @FusionptCapital We can’t only own the Mag 7, but we can recreate them in the aggregate. eBay and GameStop can take down Amazon. Just nobody will give them a chance.

  Here's a recap of the past seven days in $GME Friday - WSJ "leak" the rumour about GameStop acquiring eBay post market Monday - Rumour is confirmed to be true, GameStop issue a press release and the stocks react, $GME down 10% and eBay rises. Ryan Cohen has a hostile interview with CNBC, treating them like the dummies that they are, simultaneously becoming a meme for his patronising "half cash, half stock" response, a genius move in free marketing. Sultan Almaaded, who met with Ryan Cohen in 2025 posts a meme stating he would financially back such a deal, to acquire eBay. Michael Burry sells his GME position, and is unfollowed by Ryan Cohen Tuesday - Ryan Cohen continues the media tour with a much friendlier, but short interview with Charles Payne This is followed by a longer more detailed interview with TPBN, he reveals that he wants eBay to be his baby and that he could run it from home, he also mentions that the eBay board are not happy with his involvement. Wednesday Ryan calls out the lack of purchases by the eBay board, only sales to the tune of $120M over the past five years. Ryan Cohen starts listing items on eBay, under the username ryan5050 to help raise money to acquire eBay. Each listing comes with a signed copy of the Activist letter sent to the eBay board This causes Ryan to be suspended from eBay, and a lengthy customer services call Thursday Ryan continues the public onslaught at eBay, criticizing their happy hour and free alcohol, the case of Security Directors harrassing and indimidating members of the public and their misaligned priorities, despite spending $2.4bn in marketing Form 425's are being filed daily with any relevant public communications posted on X and mainstream media. The media tour continued today with an interview with Business Insider and a 40 minute YouTube interview, Let's see what next week brings in this amusing and entertaining investment, will Ryan continue the games? Will Roaring Kitty returns? Will Jake cure his chlamidya? Game On.

  @Wall_of_History @doctorbionicle It’s not all of them, but I know there’s a good chunk that buy and resell as partial “income.” Most don’t report this on taxes because Ebay and Marketplace aren’t heavily monitored by the IRS as reselling personal items isn’t technically a taxable thing It’s never enough money to be full time, so the rest of that money has to be coming from somewhere. I understand it’s a regional issue too, where I am it’s certainly the case. I go to my local game/comic stores and most of the people there are not keeping jobs. They’re on government social programs and they’re grossly overweight. Think the Chris Chan types but less degenerate to paint a picture. Take Pokémon cards for example. The recent videos with Target show a lot of people who aren’t local from the US. That’s immigrants (male men who are here for work but not to raise families) taking advantage of our system to make tax free income. When you watch them you don’t see English speaking Americans so we can safely assume this is being used for fraud Now the ones that are scalping legally are more likely to have bots sniping and register it as a business. The ones in stores are getting free money from abused social programs most likely because the cost of going from place to place is not going to be profitable otherwise. I’ve done some basic observation and research on this to an extent.
