El CEO de GameStop subasta artículos en eBay para financiar una compra

El director ejecutivo de GameStop, Ryan Cohen, ha puesto a la venta una colección de artículos personales y relacionados con la empresa en eBay. Esta medida se produce mientras el minorista explora la posibilidad de adquirir el propio mercado en línea. Se describe que los ingresos de las subastas servirán como contribución para alcanzar ese objetivo.

Cohen publicó un enlace a los anuncios en las redes sociales el 6 de mayo. Los artículos van desde videojuegos retro, incluyendo copias selladas de Yoshi’s Cookie y el Metroid original, hasta una estatua de Master Chief y otra de Vault Boy. Otras ofertas incluyen una gorra de GameStop, un trozo de alfombra retirado de una tienda, un iPhone y una tarjeta coleccionable PSA 10 que muestra la toma de posesión de Donald Trump en 2016. Cada anuncio incluye una copia firmada de la carta de Cohen en la que propone la adquisición de eBay.
