Peter R Hann CFA, Goldbug Weirdo/Silver Freak (@PeterRHann1) reportedOk, I have to say it. I have issues with how Ryan Cohen has done things. The warrants are an example of that. But I do think he did spend considerable time planning out this Ebay proposal. Too many are laughing at him. This guy has a relationship with Carl Icahn. Do you not think Ryan had some deep thoughts on this with him? I'm sure multiple scenario analysis has been done. And for Chuck Gasbag to suddenly start talking positive about him and GME? Yeah, something is still coming.

Yeroc 🇨🇦 (@Corey42732) reported@Kyl0Z3n @marketswithmay Ebay should buy GME and shut it down. Be done with this ****.

Vlad Green (@VladislavGreene) reported$GME My 2 cents about GME buying eBay. 50% cash 50% stock. If GME market cap $10B and Ebay's $40B, so it's 20/80 split, but as GME pays out 50% cash it bring us to 80/2 = 40%, so in the end 60/40. 60% GME shareholders and 40% eBay's in the new company. The stock portion is $27.75B (half of the $125 offer). Case 1 (basic): GME has 450000000 shares outstanding. To keep the 60/40 split GME need to issue 300000000 new shares to the eBay shareholders. $27.75B / 300000000 = $92.50 implied issuance price. Total after deal = 750000000 shares. This gives the NEW company $69.375B market cap and share price after deal = $92.50. Case 2 (diluted): Including the 144000000 Senior Convertible Notes + 59000000 Warrants = 651000000 total GME fully diluted shares. To keep the same 60/40 split GME needs to issue 434000000 new shares to eBay's people. $27.75B / 434000000 = ~$63.94 implied issuance price. Total after = 1085000000 shares. This gives the NEW company $69.375B market cap and share price = ~$63.94.

Touchmy6ballz (@PriceXMark) reported@eBay you truly need to make the date buyers expect the delivery longer as @RoyalMail are slow as **** now and I’m sick of having to deal with claims of it not arriving because they are a couple days late due to Royal Mail being ****
-
Chris (@Hellobro69420) reported@to_earth_1 @Polymarket Yes. Ebay needs new owners to fix this ****!
-
CJ (@Cjayson4444) reported@TimothyGre12262 Yeah, I get on eBay and sometimes can’t resist, couple weeks ago I bid way more than I should on a Gibson SG and was hoping someone would outbid me and they did. But this one wasn’t too bad and I wanted a vintage broken in guitar and I never tried a telecaster before. Now I see why they’re so popular, it sounds so good and it never seems to go out of tune.

Jay Bee (@Mordin04) reported@Alyssandriaaa @TCGplayer I stopped using TCGplayer last year after eBay shut down their Syracuse facility.

Drunk Superman (@DrunkSuperman3) reported@larrykingundead @Wozniat I don't know how many people thought Superman was going stay dead. But i remember people who thought that issue was going be worth big money. And you get a sealed black polybag for 20 bucks on ebay today. lol.

Tburdy (@Tburdy) reported@Chase sucks! And we will be removing our business' banking from there if they don't fix this problem right away. We had a sophisticated hack on our computer in March. And they charged over $40,000 to our card. With over 20 transactions. They had control over our computer remotely. They also used our Amazon eBay and Etsy accounts which were logged in to try to purchase other items like gold bars and Amazon gift cards and a $3500 computer. But those companies all knew it was fraud and they canceled it. There were $35,000 in charges directly to the credit card were for a Hong Kong, social media company. Chase just came back to us and told us that they were not going to cover it because they say we clicked on accepting it through our email as a valid charge... we did not do that! the person that had remote control over our computer did it! they were logged into our email there and remotely operating our computer! All the charges happened at midnight. We woke up at 7 AM to alerts for all these charges, and when my husband tried to deny them, it kicked back and said that they were already approved and he couldn't deny them. So he went in to the bank, and the banker said he could take care of it, and he was going to reverse the charges. Well yesterday, somebody from Chase fraud department called and said that we're on the hook for the charges, because it came from our IP address!!!! We tried to explain to the person that it's because they had remote control from somewhere else in the world of our computer because it was a hack. And that us going in the next morning, bright and early as soon as they open to tell them that it was fraud should have been enough. Because that's what the banker told us! We don't do business in China so why would we want to pay a Chinese company? We don't do business at midnight because we're asleep! We filed a police report, but we had not kept the hacking evidence because the bank had assured us that it was going to be reversed. We wiped that computer and haven't been using it. If there's any information still on that computer that might show that it had been hacked before, that I can access still, if somebody can let me know how that would be appreciated.

Protect the Cats (@Toycat470772) reported@alt_w_v_g eBay has its problems, sure. But I don't want the guy that turned Gamestop into the funko pop store trying to "fix" it. Ironically any game can be found cheaper on eBay than Gamestop.

Drunk Superman (@DrunkSuperman3) reported@larrykingundead @Wozniat I don't know how many people thought Superman was going stay dead. But i remember people who thought that issue was going be worth big money. And you get a sealed black polybag for 20 bucks on ebay today. lol. You really should only collect something unless your really enjoy it.

karson (@Karson2305x) reported🚨GAMESTOP JUST TRIED TO BUY EBAY FOR $56 BILLION🚨 Ryan Cohen walks in with a $125/share cash+stock offer, says he'll fix their bloated mess using our 1,600 stores for real-world fulfillment... and eBay's board cries "not credible" like scared little kids. This is the SAME Ryan Cohen who turned a "dying" GameStop into a $10B+ beast with a war chest of cash while shorts have been bleeding since 2021. They laughed at us then. They're sweating now. Apes aren't selling. Diamond hands only. The real squeeze is just getting started. $GME #GameStop #RyanCohen #ApesTogetherStrong

OneManSaas (@OneManSaas) reported@gregisenberg Exactly this. Built my SaaS while everyone was chasing the AI hype wave. Same reason my eBay business works - I'm solving problems in markets that don't have 500 funded startups fighting over every customer.
-
AlwaysTomorrow (@tomorrow741741) reported@userofintellect Soooo why is the stock is down now that eBay has refused the buyout offer? 🤔
-
RL (@RL_4444) reported@alt_w_v_g I've been seeking on Ebay for 20 years. Every single year it goes from bad to worse. They don't even care. This is a great write up and explanation what has happened. They also make it impossible to even contact them when there's an issue.

Pokemaam (@poke_maam) reportedSellers all be saying bc @eBay is buyer friendly. It is not! Sucks both ways, benefiting bad actors but not genuine issues. Cases Ive lost: - Seller shipped slab in envelope with no protection. Cracked slab arrive. Seller reviews in revent month had many complaints about cracked slabs. Screenshotted reviews and my own cracked slab. I lost. Apparently multiple complaints from many buyers dont matter to ebay. - Seller sent me a PSA 8 instead of PSA 9, opened a case, wrote to seller and seller said he would refund. Went dead. Window for refunds closed on the MiA. Wrote to ebay, says no refund even though wrong item sent. Im sure everyone on both the buyer and seller sides have their own ebay horror stories. So indeed, they are ready for disruption. Fees are less an issue if service is good. Often wonder if they have an actual human reviewing cases.

DataAndFinance (@EmotionMarkets) reported@unusual_whales Ryan Cohen calling $EBAY “run by losers” is funny. But structurally, it also matters. The deal is not dead, but it has clearly moved from normal M&A into hostile-pressure territory. eBay already rejected the bid as “neither credible nor attractive,” and the financing gap is still the biggest practical problem. That makes the $GME setup less about whether the takeover is likely tomorrow, and more about whether the crowd can keep the pressure organized. SETA is seeing that pressure return: $GME narrative coherence has rebuilt to 0.276, with the tape lifting around “ebay rejects,” “takeover,” and “credible attractive.” So the read is: Low probability clean deal. High-friction hostile campaign. Live squeeze risk if the M&A narrative keeps cohering.

Pete Bronson, CPA, CA (@rantsofmich) reported@lasvegas_ape Even crazier when you look at the numbers it's down ~$1B in market cap on the news it made ~$500M profit on its investment in eBay... Perfect markets in action.
-
ARB_Investing (@BetterDays47) reported@lasvegas_ape It’s down because RC will acquire eBay one way or another and dilution will happen. RC himself told in the interview a dilution would happen.
-
SeaSickMutant.eth | revolt.eth (@SeaSickMutant) reported@prezmike25 @eBay @CardPurchaser Got it- but it still ships to the international hub…so is there any issues there?
-
JosephGMECobraKai (@JosephCobraKai) reported@ryancohen Fix this Ryan. Enough is enough of loser leadership at eBay.
-
mathieu malecot (@tragicslip) reported@treesonstumps @alt_w_v_g You can do ok as a buyer on ebay. It's sellers that have a problem, and slowly this bleeds quality buyers. Only the diligent and the scammers are good at using ebay's tools to shop smart.
-
Dr. Howard 🌐 (@_how_ard_) reported@Polymarket I know the ebay name recognition + customer base is worth a lot but I don't think it would be too difficult to create a better run competitor to crush it. Problem is, that would take at least a few years.
-
The New Mocha Joe (@TheNewMochaJoe) reported@CGasparino Must be getting the eBay deal. The market seems to be indicating that with GME down and eBay up.
-
TonguesOutGlassArt (@boroartgroyper) reported@2ray_degenemax @ahiychmpsm eBay is likely the least headache, but assume it will be opened by customs. If you have a bunch of trouble finding a good source I’ll happily hit a 7-11 and send you the whole line up, but private shipping is $$$ corporate is $, so eBay will probably be cheaper
-
whatever (@macncheetos) reported@alt_w_v_g I still sell stuff on ebay. I'm not a big company. I don't pay anything extra on top of standard fees. I have no issues. You and RC are yelling at clouds while ebay grows revs, does buybacks, pays dividends, gme shrinks revs, dilutes, charges for a dividend
-
Scottie (@scott_wysocki) reported$gme I think scam Street has all this arranged. Push down the price of GME and push up the price of eBay to 125 where they can say to shareholders see, look you don’t need a buyout. The stock price is high right now. ceo should sell the 5 percent and make 2 billion
-
Maddie Hatter (@HatterMaddie17) reported@MindandEmotion7 @ryancohen I sold a brand new Disney LoungeFly backpack on there about a month ago. I had bought it at a 40% discount and they weren’t making them anymore, so I thought I’d make a quick buck selling it on eBay. After eBay took out all the fees, I made a little over $4. It wasn’t even worth my gas to take it to the post office! I decided I wouldn’t go through the trouble again, but if RC makes some changes to make it more lucrative for sellers, I’d consider doing it again.

Sobriquet (@sobriquet42) reported@alphafox I hadn't used it in over a decade until this past month when I needed an obscure ceiling fan part. I signed up. I got my part, it worked, no issue. 2 weeks later I got an email that ebay has permanently banned my account for suspicious activity. What? Why? What a joke.
