  @MrJdotETH @ryancohen Scammers and bad sellers are the biggest problem on eBay right now. The hope is GameStop's ownership would actually prioritize trust over fee extraction. A marketplace that vets sellers and takes a cut only on closed deals would solve both problems at once.

  @yhessagonzales @PhantomBlack699 @eBay Ebay shareholders are the only ones to make money in the last month. Their stock is up. Ours is down.

  @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.

  The EBay story that nobody is talking about: -GME is down 19% since Cohen embarrassed himself on CNBC -The Math only works if he dilutes GME shareholders by 60+% -Closed at 21.61 today, with single digit downside in the horizon My Opinion: RC = grifting conman

  @APompliano @ryancohen Ebay is a terrible company it absolutely takes advantage of sellers and allows 1000s of phony products to be sold. I have spoken to insiders and they said it's insane what really goes on within the company. I would not be surprised if some big news comes out about them.

  @ColinGunn1960 Wow. Amazing that you have a copy. Someone is trying to sell that issue on EBay for £26. Good luck to ‘em. I still have my contributor’s copy. The editor was Ian McLachlan - my school teacher at the time!

  🚨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

  @Sir_BeefWelly Just next time do better at selling. And I really hope you're not selling on eBay under the name four brothers or beef Welly. You never know who's on the other side who knows people. I've had eBay accounts shut down for Less.

  @CHILIKIWInft Ebay is "poorly managed"? The share price is up 147% since Nov 2022. GME share price is down over the same period. I think the institutional investors can understand that difference. Cohen is acting like a spurned lover. Immature and bitter.

  Sometimes a post on X makes you think on things you never thought about before. I liked Gamestop. Now I like them even more. I've hated Ebay for many years. Now I know why. Thanks for breaking things down, @alt_w_v_g

  @npantano_ @idiosyncraticr7 The terrible news will be we own 10%+ of ebay and are up 500 million on the calls. I was planning to sell my June contracts this week but they absolutely scammed ******** out of gme this week.

  Im not reading all of that but I have zero issues with ebay. I buy and sell on there daily. No where else will you get that many people actively buying and selling. As for the fees. I really don’t even care. Account for them when you make your listing prices. It’s a free market. I use eBay for the amount of eyes on my products. GameStop shills just can’t get over this.

  @eBay_UK @eBay Why, I’ve shown you the issue with eBay. You send proof to the correct department and sort it out. My part is done

  @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.

  @cursedconnector Are you sure your bank isn't talking to eBay? 🤪 Yeah, that's definitely a big problem.

  Scott Sleepy (@scott_sleepy) reported 47 minutes ago

  @Kaaroth @mikee_degen I have two thoughts on this: eBay is 99% institutional owned (or 89% institutional with a 10% insider who is likely hostile), and tender offers are actually even more challenging in these dominations. It’s extremely rare that institutions participate in tender offers or voice support for activist campaigns. This makes a tender offer right now extremely, extremely challenging. Point 2: I actually think we get a huge market crash immediately in 2027, right after midterms. In the scenario where the market tanks, eBay is down >40%, Ryan keeps the $125 offer on the table, and the board has received bad press for 6+ months that is tarnishing their reputation - they are effectively forced to sell the company at that point. And in this scenario, if they don’t sell, a tender offer has a much higher chance of success. This is imo a high success chance outcome that is in a realistic timeline. Just wanted to pass along my two cents, I did a lot of research and brainstorming with grok on tender offers, and this is the scenario where it can succeed. Going to a tender offer though in a couple month when the share price is around $110 and the board is still hostile? Surprisingly that has historically a very low chance of success

  @TheMagnifishit Theyre pairs too. Same amount of puts to calls. So if ebay doesnt go through. U sell the long exposure and ride the short exposure right down. Great insurance policy and why i believe MMs and Hedge funds are piling in. One of them opened a 400m put position. Unless thats a brief exposure that will ****** hurt.

  @PeterRHann1 Is this the Kansas City shuffle? If GME moons, he won’t need to issue shares to buy eBay? Does he exercise eBay options and buy something else? Or does he push through the eBay purchase as stated?

  @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.

  @yanxchick I don't sell, but I do like eBay even though it has its issues and, since the New Year, I don't get my stuff some of the time but still fun! I prefer trading the cards I don't want, it's more fun than selling.

  Leverage Monkey🐒 (No DM’s or paid group) (@LeverageMonkey) reported 60 minutes ago

  @Stonkfather2021 Correct EBay would dilute they would issue more shares so they wouldn’t own 51%. Also institutions need permission to own more than 20% of a publicly traded company. SEC filing and eBay will know about it if filed and will prepare to issue shares to dilute.

  This is fact and it’s control and manipulation by the elites! So many people used to make a living now @eBay has become a monopoly for the board to remain rich while taking from the average person just trying to keep the lights on…. And the so called live auctions nothing more than cheap flea market and con artist with dopamine hits. It’s become a 3 ring circus while those that truly relied on their eBay store for decades. THAT eBay was traded for ego and greed and it’s now a cheap online flea market robbing people during a dopamine fix. Yea, this is you @eBay @ryancohen
