Thank you for the non-paywalled link! I'm really interested to see how the eBay thing works out. I've been using eBay for decades, with lots of complaints. I've seen how efficiently GameStop does business in their retail stores and I want to believe that they can improve the whole buying and selling experience, should the acquisition go through.

Or, if they do fuck it up, maybe things will get bad enough to where a better platform finds space to emerge (OpenBazaar rebirth?), and I'd be all for that too.

Reading about GameStop not having enough to cover their end of the deal, this story has become bizarre and entertaining.
