Attn: Ryan Cohen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Re:   Project Sling

Dear Mr. Cohen:

GameStop Corp. (the “Company” or “you”)

has previously discussed with TD Securities (USA) LLC (“TD Securities”, “we” or “us”)

that it is currently contemplating the acquisition of or other business combination with eBay Inc. (the “Target”)

(such contemplated transaction, the “Transaction”). In this regard, the Company has asked TD Securities to assess

the availability of debt financing to fund a portion of the Transaction.

TD Securities is highly confident that funded debt of up to $20.0 billion

could be raised by the Company in the bank and capital markets to support the effectuation of the Transaction. Our view is based on: (i)

our internal financial analysis and assumptions surrounding the financing of the Transaction; (ii) our review of the various materials

provided to us by you concerning the Target; (iii) current financial market conditions and (iv) the leadership of TD Securities over several

years in successfully arranging financings for corporate clients.

TD Securities’ expression of confidence assumes, amongst other

things, as determined in TD Securities’ sole discretion: (i) expected investment grade corporate credit ratings or investment grade

unsecured public debt ratings from at least two of S&P, Moody’s or Fitch pro forma for the Transaction; (ii) satisfactory completion

of our due diligence of the Target; (iii) receipt of satisfactory financial projections prepared by the Company; (iv) the accuracy and

completeness of all information, whether oral or written, provided by the Company and/or the Target to TD Securities; (v) negotiation,

execution and delivery of satisfactory definitive documentation for the Transaction and satisfactory completion of all conditions precedent

therein; (vi) receipt of all necessary governmental approvals; (vii) the absence of any material adverse change in the business, condition

(financial or otherwise), liabilities, operations, assets or prospects of the Company and/or the Target; (viii) satisfactory completion

of all required AML and KYC requirements of the Company and/or the Target and (ix) the absence of any material adverse change in the banking,

financial or capital markets conditions generally or in the market for debt financing for borrowers similar to the Company and/or the

Target.

of TD Bank Financial Group

This letter is not intended to be, and shall not constitute, a commitment

or undertaking by TD Securities or any of its affiliates to underwrite, lend or arrange financing with respect to the Transaction or otherwise.

Any commitment on the part of TD Securities or any of its affiliates to underwrite, lend or arrange financing must be evidenced in a separate

writing and will be wholly contingent upon, among other things, satisfactory completion of due diligence, the securing of all necessary

credit approvals and negotiation, execution and delivery of satisfactory definitive documentation for the financing, none of which has

been completed or obtained at this time.

This letter shall not create any obligation of TD Securities (or any of

its affiliates) or liability of TD Securities (or any of its affiliates) to the Company or any other person or entity (whether by contract,

in tort, in equity or otherwise), including, but not limited to, any liability for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive

damages. TD Securities does not assume responsibility for updating the information contained in this letter as of any date subsequent

to the date of this letter, and assumes no responsibility for advising the Company or any other person or entity of any changes with respect

to any matters described in this letter that may occur subsequent to the date of this letter.

This letter is delivered to you on the understanding that neither this

letter nor its terms or substance shall be distributed or disclosed by you, directly or indirectly, to, or relied upon by, any other person

except that you may disclose this letter (a) on a confidential basis to your affiliates and to your officers, directors, employees and

advisors who are directly involved in the consideration of the Transaction; (b) on a confidential basis to the officers, directors, employees

and advisors of the Target who are directly involved in the consideration of the Transaction; (c) as may be compelled or required in a

judicial or administrative proceeding or as otherwise required by law (in which case you agree to inform us promptly in advance thereof)

and (d) as TD Securities may otherwise consent in writing.

Very truly yours,

TD SECURITIES (USA) LLC

Exhibit 99.2

eBay Rejects Unsolicited Proposal from GameStop

SAN JOSE, Calif. – May 12, 2026 – eBay Inc. (Nasdaq:

EBAY), a global commerce leader that connects millions of buyers and sellers around the world, today announced that, following a thorough

review with the support of its financial and legal advisors, the company’s Board of Directors has determined to reject GameStop’s

unsolicited, non-binding acquisition proposal.

The full text of the eBay Board’s response letter to GameStop CEO,

Ryan Cohen, is set forth below:

Dear Mr. Cohen,

The Board, with the support of its independent advisors, has

thoroughly reviewed your proposal and has determined to reject it.

We have concluded that your proposal is neither credible nor

attractive. We have taken into account such factors as 1) eBay’s standalone prospects, 2) the uncertainty regarding your financing

proposal, 3) the impact of your proposal on eBay’s long-term growth and profitability, 4) the leverage, operational risks, and leadership

structure of a combined entity, 5) the resulting implications of these factors on valuation, and 6) GameStop’s governance and executive

incentives.

eBay is a strong, resilient business that has delivered meaningful

results over the past several years. We have sharpened our strategic focus, strengthened execution, enhanced our marketplace and seller

experience, and consistently returned capital to shareholders. With its differentiated global marketplace and a clear strategy, eBay’s

Board is confident that the company, under its current management team, is well-positioned to continue to drive sustainable growth, execute

with discipline, and deliver long-term value for our shareholders.

Our team remains focused on executing our strategy and driving

our business forward in the best interests of the company, our shareholders, our employees, and millions of buyers and sellers around

the world.

Sincerely,

/s/ Paul S. Pressler

Paul S. Pressler

Chairman of the Board of Directors, eBay
