If this does go through, I hope they change nothing about ebay. It just works.
eBay has a darker history than GameStop fwiw (Behind the Bastards did a couple episodes on that). I do think it could be a beneficial merger, pivoting to online sales should be a winner, especially with reused hardware becoming more attractive thanks to fkn LLMs.
But wait, if they take over eBay wouldn't they control a majority of the used game market?
