GameStop’s unsolicited $55.5 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay at $125 per share was rejected in May 2026 as “neither credible nor attractive,” reflecting doubts over financing despite GameStop’s roughly $9.4 billion cash position and a highly confident letter from TD Securities. With GameStop’s market capitalization near $10 billion versus eBay’s larger scale and independent turnaround underway, traders assign just 7.5% implied probability to completion. Recent stake accumulation to nearly 10% and CEO Ryan Cohen’s reaffirmed commitment have not overcome board opposition or regulatory and shareholder hurdles. A successful proxy contest or sweetened offer could shift odds, though eBay’s improving fundamentals make such outcomes unlikely near term.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if it is officially announced that eBay will be, has been, or is being acquired by or merged with GameStop, by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Mergers or acquisitions involving eBay or its parent company, eBay Inc., and GameStop or its parent company (if applicable), will qualify.
An announcement by eBay or GameStop within this market's timeframe will qualify for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of whether or when the announced acquisition/merger actually occurs.
Announcements of partial sales may count, as long as GameStop acquires a controlling interest in eBay. A “controlling interest” refers to a change in ownership sufficient to control the company’s strategic decisions (typically more than 50% of equity, or equivalent control via voting and governance rights). Transactions or investments that do not result in a transfer of controlling interest will not count.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from eBay and GameStop; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.GameStop’s unsolicited $55.5 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay at $125 per share was rejected in May 2026 as “neither credible nor attractive,” reflecting doubts over financing despite GameStop’s roughly $9.4 billion cash position and a highly confident letter from TD Securities.
