Mr. Payne,
I watched your interview with Ryan Cohen earlier today and felt compelled to reach out. You gave him the platform he deserved and asked the questions that actually mattered. Thank you. As someone with a deeply personal stake in this story, and 25 years of eBay experience, I am asking you to please pass this along to @ryancohen
AN OPEN LETTER TO RYAN COHEN
Mr. Cohen,
I have been an eBay buyer since 1999 and a seller for a decade. I’ve also been an Amazon seller. I stopped selling on both platforms because the fees became cost prohibitive. The margins simply disappeared. I know I am not alone.
I am also the mother of a long term GME stockholder who believed in you when the mainstream financial media spent years doing everything in their power to destroy that stock. My son never wavered. Not once. Five years of manufactured doubt, narrative suppression and relentless ridicule, and he held the line.
Your CNBC interviewers got exactly what they deserved. They spent years predicting and manufacturing your demise and you gave them nothing. Charles Payne got the real Ryan Cohen because he came with genuine curiosity and zero agenda.
This acquisition is nothing short of inspiring. The vision is clear, the timing is right, and the opportunity is enormous.
Before you restructure eBay, please spend real time in the seller communities. The people who were priced off that platform want to come back. And the sellers still there right now need a reason to STAY. Address them, their issues and you will have an army of advocates.
eBay needs you. My son believed in you before the rest of the world caught up.
So do I.
Nancy Gulbrandsen
P.S. My first eBay purchase? A Pokémon Charizard card for my son’s Christmas present.

Yep, there’s still work to be done but I never had a doubt that SXM would bounce back and in a big way. 🏝💪🏻 https://t.co/wzpNurF1Rf
