Hmm .. they could build a “StumbleUpon whatever the contact you’re speaking to on Skype has considered buying off eBay in the last few days” feature

Let the rumors fly! I imagine that eBay could probably buy quite a few things with the money they have coming in. I read the other day that in July of 2000, a rare baseball card sold for $1.2 million dollars. (http://www.happynews.com/living/online/history-ebay.htm)

I’ll be interested to see what comes of the eBay/Stumble Upon deal. Thanks for the news.

I would suspect that they’ll eventually buy StumbleUpon, but there are most likely issues that they have to agree upon first, such as the price. I’m sure it will eventually happen.

[...] The eBay-StumbleUpon deals is apparently back on the front-burner, according to the Wall St. Journal. The price-tag is now $75-million, which is staggering given StumbleUpon raised $1.5-million last year. To be honest, I still don’t see the fit but I didn’t see how Paypal fit into eBay’s corporate strategy. In particular, I don’t understand the talk that eBay could somehow integrate StumbleUpon into Paypal to create a multi-feature application beyond voice and instant-messaging.
