Synergy/never been done
I think it’s a whole new concept. Drop off your stuff at a retail GME location; they sell it for you. You get credit you can use on eBay or in store or from their site. You buys cards or games or whatever but now anyone can literally take a lamp in and they can sell it for you.
Remember the trade anything day??? That was a fun market test. Now it’s real. Also banking with the cash they hold in store credit. To me it’s obvious and huge. eBay gets storefronts even the boomers can drop stuff off at and GME gets a huge upgrade and use for the storefronts. It’s exactly like Amazon uses kohls or whoever for returns.
Huge synergies. eBay shareholders bite at the synergies.
Lastly; who helps? There’s dozens of potential private equity plays here where people help the acquisition. Including Buffett or RK or many others.
