eBay Online retailing giant eBay has turned down GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen’s unsolicited $56 billion takeover proposal, calling it “neither credible nor attractive.”
On May 3, GameStop submitted a nonbinding offer to acquire of eBay for $125/share (supposedly comprising 50% cash and 50% GameStop common stock), valuing eBay at $55.5 billion.
