So far he's failed to improve Gamestop's core business, which is still in decline, even with the memestock cash gusher.

Just bought a used switch there yesterday, 2 guys are selling or trading some kind of game card, kid and his dad getting a PS4... Like you say, no one goes to game stop anymore, it's too crowded ;)

Must be why it's revenue is declining to it's historic 2006 level, because it's just too busy.

net sales 2016 $8.6b, 2025 $3.5b and still in decline

eBay isn’t doing much better. Revenue Peaked in 2014. Basically treading water. Last real growth was late 2000s.
