Last week, GameStop submitted a proposal to acquire 100% of secondhand selling platform, in a move that GlobalData的 Neil Saunders described as “very audacious”.
“eBay had no discussions with or outreach from GameStop prior to receiving the proposal,” the platform said in a statement.
GameStop had said that it intended to fund the $55.5bn offer for eBay with a combination of half cash and half GameStop stock. Yet the company is only currently worth just $10.7bn, according to GlobalData.
GameStop claimed it has acquired financing worth $20bn, but questions remain about its ability to acquire a much larger rival.
