GameStop’s unsolicited May 2026 bid to acquire eBay for roughly $55.5 billion at $125 per share—half cash, half stock—has been formally rejected by eBay’s board as neither credible nor attractive, anchoring the 84.5% market-implied probability of no deal. eBay’s ~$48 billion market capitalization exceeds GameStop’s scale, and analysts have questioned the financing plan that relies on GameStop’s $9 billion cash position plus up to $20 billion in contemplated debt. GameStop has accumulated a roughly 5–8% economic stake via derivatives and shares, yet no follow-on tender offer or revised proposal has materialized in the six weeks since the rejection. With no regulatory filings indicating progress and eBay maintaining operational independence, trader consensus reflects the significant barriers to completing a transaction of this size between the two companies.

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 May 2026 bid to acquire eBay for roughly $55.5 billion at $125 per share—half cash, half stock—has been formally rejected by eBay’s board as neither credible nor attractive, anchoring the 84.5% market-implied probability of no deal. eBay’s ~$48 billion market capitalization exceeds GameStop’s scale, and analysts have questioned the financing plan that relies on GameStop’s $9 billion cash position plus up to $20 billion in contemplated debt.
